Im a Canon fanboy all the way but when you have the d800 roaring through
and Sony's new impressive line of dslr's / dslt's.
You start to wonder, where is Canon in all this?
Sony's a77 already has taken a large step in the right direction with its
24mp monster on a big APS-C sensor compared to canons and nikons.
12 fps shots with auto focus, full continuos auto focus, and so many new in-camera
features that its hard to bat an eye at.

Some of us are waiting for the 70d or the possible 7d mark ii, t4i even.
Some are waiting for the 5D Mark ii to go down in price after the Mark iii.
We need something from Canon soon, or I might have to try out a d800 :/
I would be fine with a 70d, but havent heard any spec rumors whatsoever...
seems more like a fairy tale now.

FYI, the Sony is noisy has hell, and the AF suck. It can't track a subject if it was life-depending. Plus, with all the mp's you get a noisy image compared, but even worse is it when you loose 30% of the available light at ALL times due to the translucent mirror.

So while it looks impressive on paper, using it in real life shows it has nothing on the 7d.

The 1d X and the D4 are the new pro-bodies from Canon and Nikon, it's not like NIkon owns the pro-segment and everything else. Canon was first with the pro-body, now Nikon is first with the d800, Canon is widely know, waiting for the anniversary in March, so I wouldn't be too worried.

And what has Nikon released of lenses the last year compared to Canon??
