In case you didn't know, the D800/E will possibly have a DR 14.5/15 of EV while the 5D 3 will still only have 12 EV. Not a big jump compared even to the 5D II and 1Ds III.

Ya ok but that doesn't mean it is far superior as a whole, I am sure they will both be great

Julian, make sure to replace all your Canon cameras with Nikon neck straps.:p

OT, I am staying and already ordered a Mark III. I can easily sell my Canon gear as I don't have that much and probably only loose a few hundred quid. Trust me, I almost went to the dark side, like very, very close.

But in the end I will stay with big Red and ride out the storm. I want to eventually learn how to shoot wedding and I think the 5D3 is a better fit for the job than a D800. Also, the 5D3 also will improve on the 5D2, which was and still is one of the best landscape camera ever, for landscape photography so I also gain there as well.

Got mine for a slight discount of $3,345.00 also didn't hurt either.

One last thing. Canon doesn't have a crop mode.

Nikon is the better camera. Don't take me seriously. I still have my 1Ds 3. Relax.

Lol!

Speaking of Crop, is this guy for real!

"With its monster resolution of 36Mp, one can feel free to crop like crazy. As stated above, even when cropped by a factor of 2x, the D800 will still have a resolution of around 9Mp. When cropping by a factor of 2, one also effectively doubles the focal length of a given lens, and also saves a lot of money. Example: by cropping at a 2x factor, one can use a $1,200 300f4 VR Nikkor to the same effect as the $8,000 600f4VR Nikkor. Another example: the $2,300 70-200 f2.8 VR effectively transforms into a 140-400 f2.8 optic, equaling in focal length and bettering in aperture the $7,000 200-400 f4 VR. For all of this money saving ability, the only cost is having to shoot at a “measly” 9Mp, which is still big enough for most purposes.

Talk about savings!

Want to buy a D800? As for pricing and availability, the D800 will hit stores for $2999 in March while the D800E will arrive in April for $3299."
