Some more interesting data: OVERALL BREAKDOWN OF UNITS:

2018 | 2017 | 2016 | 2015
Nikon: (2018) 52.0%; (2017) 30.6%; (2016) 27.2%; (2015) 18.4%
Canon: (2018) 30.2%; (2017) 55.5%; (2016) 63.6%;...

Peter, I do think Canon and Nikon are working on mirrorless, not as a DSLR replacement, but as another alternative. I also think they'll do a better job ... NOT making it as "an electronic device"...

BACK TO REALITY: In the real world, mirrorless is a speck on the professional horizon, nothing really. If you look at the World Press 2018 Photo results...

Another way to say what just happened is Nikon cameras produced more of the Top 100 images than Canon, Sony, Fuji, Olympus, and Leica *put together* ...

SRT201, I agree with what you're saying. However, no one who photographs landscape, or macro, with a D850 is using the mirror. We ALL use Live View, which is 10000x better than looking through an...

Tragic, most serious professionals despise EVF. EVF appeals more to walk-around snap-shooters of cities and such, than those who actually photograph sports, wildlife and other challenging subjects.

Nonsense. There are at least 100-1 award-winning images produced from DSLRs over those produced by mirrorless.

The funny thing is, mirrorless is NOT better.

There is not a mirrorless camera made that is an overall better tool than a DSLR equivalent. There is not a mirrorless lens profile available that can...

I'm not, Pete. And I can compare anything I want. There is also no exaggeration.

The Canon 6D2 is a joke compared to older Nikons, let alone newer ones. It can compete with any modern camera today...

You forgot the 'w' in your name, Dimit ;)

DSLRs are not dinosaurs; they are the most complete camera/lens system available to anyone who is serious about photography.

The truth is, mirrorless...

HFLM, It's not an exaggeration.

Canon sensors, DR, AF are way-way-way (not slightly) behind Nikon's.

The 7D Mk II is a joke toy compared to the D500.
The D850 is so far beyond the 5D series, it's...

What a crock.

The Nikon D850, D750, and D500 blow their Canon equivalents out of the water. It is literally not even a contest, on *any* level.

Only the Canon 1Dx Mark II is competitive with its...

I had the Canon 7D and the interface of Nikon is far superior. The controls feel more solid and are much better-made, quality, not cheap. The Nikon D500 is a great camera; the 7D I and II toys by...

Why not just buy a Nikon D500 ... instead of 'wishing' Canon would make one?

I hope I never hear the phrase 'game-changer' again :rolleyes:

Yes, Eye AF is overrated. Sony is only good for those with no real lens needs (portrait / landscape shooters). No one who has serious sports/wildlife needs shoots Sony. No one.

"Small, thin...

Actually, the conclusion is false. They rate the lens availability as equal, which is a joke. Sony only has a bare-bones lens profile, and nothing that can come close to matching Nikkor's...

Sad only for those who can't afford it.

Disagree. Looks like Nikon is controlling things by dumping business in wildcard, non-profitable areas of the world, and dumping low-end gear, and concentrating on the best they have ... in the...

Speaking of dumb, and schooling, pal, try to match your subject-verb agreement ("deprived myself of that options?").

FYI, I just came back from Zion National Park, and shot over 1000 landscape ...
