Very good video pitting the two cameras against one another.

Spoiler alert: Both cameras are awesome.  :D

Yes, every MK3 comes with your own personal model. They don't look very good out of box though. Sweaty, pissed off, and creased. It's best to hose them down and let them dry in the sun for a few hours.

I must agree with Kai, 5D3 design is more confortable to use.

But D800 takes really nice sharp pic. the comparision's shown every photo they slideshow on the screen make alot of differences and choices for buyers.

Whichever you buy, at the end of the day it makes you smile (*grin*)

Why do Nikon photos always looked washed out and less detailed to me? They never look as rich and detailed as photos taken by Canons.

Nikon use more conservative defaults for jpegs , no dig deal just dial in the sharpening contrast & saturation etc....
you like in the menus.

I love the comment about having a cup of tea while waiting on the D800 to write to the card.

You must own 3.5" floppies, in which case, you might want to upgrade your RAM to 125KB as well.

Yes, RAW.  Those are huge files!  My 5D3 files run 24-30mb, 240 images on an 8 gig card, approximately.
