The D3 was not only more accurate than the 1D3, it was full frame. The 1D4 was a slap in the face as they raised the price and it was still an APS-H sized chip. It made more sense for me to use Nikon.
You mean you didn't want to pay $8K for a 1Ds Mark III instead? :devil:
Between the $8k price tag and 5 fps, it was an easier switch. I already owned 1 D3 so I could use it with a former employers leftover Nikon telephoto lenses after they switched to Canon. For $5500, Nikon offered a full frame 12mp D3 and it just made sense at the time. I thought I could learn to love Nikon but I just don't.
