About 15 years ago I was shooting Nikon (with film of course) but then sold all my equipment. About 18 months ago when I started photography again I was starting from a clean slate and originally bought the Nikon D7000! For some reason I did not like the feel and the IQ of it so I decided to trade it in quickly and instead go with Canon.
Originally the lens selection of Canon and the IQ of the 5D mk II sold me to the brand. Today with several L lens under the pocket, I often look at Nikon and ask myself: do they have the same lens selection as Canon and do they have a oke for like equivalent for each L lens I own? While Nikon makes great lens too, I could not live without my 50 1.2, 85 1.2 and the 135 for which I think NIkon has inferior product in that focal lenght.
Of course 18 months later I now also want a kick-ass AF system and better low light performance, but this is why I crave the 1DX!
