And hard-core Nikon friends had better move on ...

Your love for Nikon is quite charming.

Some photographers will actually use this camera to make great *PHOTOGRAPHS*. If videography is your thing, consider a dedicated tool like the Canon EOS C300 or Cinema EOS Sytem.

Still stuck in the megapixel race? Some prefer low light performance. There are practically no lenses (not even from Nikon) sharp enough to utilise every 36 megapixel. The same goes for (auto)focus...

The 5D mk3 price will probably drop, once the 5D mk2 inventory has been sold. This may be a good time to buy one of the last mk2 models, for anyone wanting to enter the FF arena for a reasonable...

There is ... it's called 7D. If that's not good enough, a successor (7D mk2?) is probably on its way, because the 7D has been around for about 3 years now.

Street prices will drop. In a free market, people won't buy it they don't perceive it as good value for money. Canon and Nikon are true competitors on a level playing field, and the consumer...

If weight is so important get a "mirrorless" system camera. The extra weight presumably contributes to extra (built) quality, speed, durability. Making it lighter would make it even more expensive...

@sdyue: pretty cryptic comment here? Would you care to explain why ExpSim LV is so important? Why it is a must-have, that apparently appeals to the Powershots crowd?

sdyue, why is CF preferable to SD (SDXC in particular)?
CF+SD is nice because of the flexibility/interchangability it offers. It's easy to borrow some SD card (from practically any device) in case...

This is a superb camera, intended for serious photographers that know what really matters in photographic equipment, not for trolls.

The Fujifilm X-S1 is actually a 6.1mm - 158.6 mm. There is no comparison in resolving power, and F5.6 at 159mm which doesn't excite me very much. Using a similar crop-factor the Sony 500mm F4 would...

The S95/S100 is not competing with the G1-X, but with other compacts. Having a larger sensor than most compacts, image quality is clearly superior to all cameras in this class. Being only 27mm...

Maloy, I've never heard about the idea the using BOTH hands to operate a camera would be a disadvantage (unless you only have one hand)... interesting. I can't imagine seriously taking pictures...

Well summarised! It's hard to justify the cost solely on the basis of a premium quality sensor. Canon's DSLR lineup has similar sensor quality but starts at far less than $800. It also misses the...
