So…………
It seems the thing people talk most about with cameras today is ISO performance. So here is some examples/tests of the D3s & 1D4 ISO performance.
By the looks of things, Nikon's D3s is definitely outperforming the Mark IV at high ISO.

I cannot vouch for the tester/reviewer here.

AFAIK
Canon earns a whole lot more.
regardless of pixel count and affordability of tele lens, the facts are out that the latest Canon top of the line “sports/ action” camera is sub-par to Nikon’s older model. Canon has officially went from 2 steps ahead of Nikon in the 1D MKI/ MKII era to 2 steps BEHIND in the MK4 (just released last month, while Nikon had already released their latest camera over 6 mos. prior and probably well on their way to releasing an even more improved camera), with no signs of drastic improvments in the next model on the horizon. Sorry, (and I’ve been a diehard Canon supporter for over 15 years) but I think the Era of white lenses reigning supreme in numbers are about to end within a year or so.
yeah, and Nikon’s obviously superior philosophy has left Canon in the dust.
It it absurd to say it’s unfair to Canon. Canon specifically targeted the 1D4 for the same market as the D3. It doesn’t matter what chip they decide to put in said camera. Then why arent’ you complaining about Canon not making a FF “sports” camera in the same market as the D3? If that was the case about not comparing different sensor cameras, that means the D3 really is a class above. :-)
Sure, when you spend the 5k on a new camera for me, I’ll stop complaining about inferior products…
