Sold my Nikon Gear

<< < (3/4) > >>

Awesome. Great to read that. I am basically doing the same thing. I am in the process of selling all my Nikon gear to buy the 7D. Once the money rolls in, I really want to get the 5d3 while accumulating several good >2.8 lenses.

Did you sell all your Nikno gear on e-bay or did you go to a local shop and have it vendored/get other products cheaper?

RLPhoto:
All you need now are some unique primes like the 85mm 1.2L or the 50mm 1.2L. They're awesome and in the end, what kept me here on the canon camp for so long.

Should be plenty of peeps on here wanting to buy your Nikon gear, going by many of the threads anyways  ;D ;D ;D

I'm saving for a 5D3 (eta March 2013!) but I have to admit this kind of post really makes me think mmmmm.....

Darn op, Should have talked to me. I ditched all the canon gear last week. Mk2 + the primes and zooms I had. oh well enjoy the canon side. Switching is healthy to keep a good perspective on things and have a reason to learn more. I'm sure you'll have fun.

- I don“t use the other points, neither on the D700.

Congrats on the 5d2. I used to shoot Nikon but got tired of them promissing better cameras and not delivering and at the time (2004) Canon were announcing and delivering very quickly so I jumped.

I notice you say you don't use the other points. Curious why that is but I suspect it may be due to you using the centre point and then reframing the shot? If this is the case, this is a habit you want to break if you intend to use wider apertures as with shallow DoF, the focus could miss when its reframed. This is one reason people often think that fast lenses focus is poor.
