Will be hanging on to my 5d II till they do just that. Whenever they get around to even one of those two, I'll finalize the move to Nikon. Great news though, it makes so much sense for Nikon to get competitive with tilt-shifts now that they have the perfect camera for it (D800).Yup! Great minds think alike.

Definitely not worth the effort, unless you ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO HAVE a 17mm T/S. AngryCorgi

That's why we both shoot Canon and Nikon.
