I just want to see how the Nikon/Canon split is going within the MF crowd.

Edmund

5d and g9 canons.
the 5d collects dust ( i mean i use it very rarely ), not so the g9.

5d and g9
Soon 5d mk2

I am using Nikon since age 13. Still using Nikon. I can use the equipment without thinking (not sure whether that is a good thing )

Must confess, there are times I envy parts of the Canon system but I simply cannot put myself to switching though there are time I came close.

Sony, Nikon - but I could care less what name is on the front...

Canon 1Ds MK3, 50D and G9, and considered the 5D2 counted.

There are charming number of us here shooting with both Canon and Nikons... I guess you assume we are too snobbish or we have a nice set of teeth to vote here for both Edmund

:Me Canon, you fodder.

:I'm a Nikon guy.

:Both "Nikon and Canon"

:There's other brands, remember!

:I don't need any kid toys!

Hasselblad H & older Hasselblads (aka paperweights )
Nikon D2X (waiting for new D3X or preferably MX.
Canon G9 - wife pulled the rank, so she uses it too.

G9 is the big star here isnt it?

2 canon 1ds2
1 canon 400d for kids

Jaime

Canon 1ds 1 the original and the best camera I've ever owned.

Canon 1dsIII

Canon 1dsII (for sale)

Canon 1dIIN (for sale)


Nikon D3

Nikon D2x

Nikon N90

Leica M8

Two Canon 5d's on order.


JR

yes there are other brands - leica

former 5D
G9
soon 5D MKII
former Nikon F100
about to be former Contax 645
former P30+
collects dust but will never give up Pentax K1000
collects dust SX70 (damn you Polaroid)
starting to collect dust Holga FN
collecting dust Kodak Brownie Starflex TLR

There are other brands, but they don't offer the piece of mind that comes with pro service and repair or rental.

both.....
1ds3, d700,
5d2coming soon.....
nothing going out....

1ds II - Now as a backup, or where MF is impractical
Rebel - As a toy, for sh*ts and giggles

Looks like MF owners love their G9s ... and other heavier Canons.

I was expecting a lot of D700s, somehow.

Edmund

Nothing still on the fence and actually trying to avoid a DSLR at all costs if i can. Matter of need and i seem to be doing just fine without right now. If i need one i can rent canon or Nikon within minutes for cheap. Honestly none of them are turning me on, so rather avoid the costs

Let me see, Guy, you've sold how many M8s, R8s, R9s, DMRs, a Canon or two, memory fails me and yet I see your future -wait it glows, there a red spot soars above your head, it says "S2"

Edmund

James, please PM me with details on the 1Ds2. I sent you a PM a couple weeks ago but never heard back so I figure this might be a better way of getting in touch with you

Mamiya RZ Pro II & 6x7 film
Mamiya ZD camera
Nikon D700
Fuji S3

Trying to find the holy grail. No more than most Pros' though. There just a means to a end. The only thing i want soaring over my head is dollar signs.

I have a Canon 1Ds MkI, it's more than enough for what I need from a 35mm, and it complements my P25 very nicely. I really don't understand why you would want/need 3-4 cameras with similar specs, I suspect some are more interested in the gear than taking photos.

If your asking me it is over a 5 year period , nothing unusually there. I have nothing except my P25 plus. If the P21 Plus had ISO 1600 than I would have that also otherwise need nothing except a backup back which that i could use.

1ds2,1ds3 work horses but I'm really a Nikon kind of person so Kodak dcs760, Nikon F4 and F5 and a range of lenses, sold the 14nx . Not sure why I bought the 1ds3 now, doesn't seem a huge leap from the 2 , but at least I have a backup. Looked at a friends D700 last night and had a special moment.
Can't see the point of spending any more money on 35mm camera bodies now!

Main reason I kept my 1DsII was for wildlife...

don

4 x Fuji S5, my main squeeze with Zeiss and Hassy glass.

Kodak SLR/n, quirky but ideal for certain situations were I need slightly more rez than the Fujis but mostly sidelined by the MF systems now.

Ricoh GRD, the one and only!

nailed to the N.
D3, D2x, D2h, D70, D100 and a SLR/n for good measure.

looking for a D1x on the cheap.
my D70 is not a D70ir.


edit:
I also used a 5D before the D3 came out for low light.

Got rid of all my Canon gear, most recently a 5D and 1DsIII. I for one, do not think the 5D II will hold anything to MFDB. I know that at least my 1DsIII did not. Megapixels aren't everything. I now have a P1 AFD and 30+ on the way as my main system. I still keep a P&S camera on the side for quick shots.

1ds MkIII and I love it, use it more than the mf lately
5D for vacations
5D Mkii will get
