While he does not outright declare a winner - I think he prefers the 5d Mk3 followed by the D4.

I didn't think he liked the D4 at all. I think he slightly preferred the 5D3 but also liked the D800 because it was sharper, 5D3 is kinda soft although it has no aliasing/moire and much better SNR.

agierke:
before i even read the review i saw the photo of the three cameras discussed.

missed focus and bad noise...i wonder what camera was used to take that shot! not sure if you should be reviewing cameras if that is the kind of photography you are offering up to represent the 3 cameras you are reviewing....

AG:
Basically like we know, the 5D3 is still the killer Video DSLR to beat.
The D800 comes close but is let down by Moire and AA issues and the D4 has been crippled for some reason (technically it should have done better than the D800).

Also of note the D800 only was able to produce a better image once you inserted a 3rd party filter into it.

In the end this round goes to canon for video but Nikon for stills.
The next generation will be the defining round IMHO, Nikon will have had time to work out their kinks (if they are not bought out by Sony in the mean time) and Canon will have to bring something pretty damn amazing to the fight.

An AF upgrade and 2 stops won't cut it next time.

We only have another 3 years to wait for round 3 :p

Waterdonkey:
It was shot with C300.
