Angst...

I'll be serious, I'm not thinking of dumping Nikon, but that new 5D M4 looks delicious. If I could pull off that body, a 16-35 f/4 and either the 100 f/2.8 macro or the MPE 65, I'd be ordering pronto.....:drool:
So who of you Canon yokels is gonna pick that baby up?

Why so serious?

I have to admit that it's tempting.
On the other hand: Photography is just a (very dear) hobby.I don't think I'll spend that much money on a new body.
Of course: If you are a pro, or if money doesn't matter - go ahead. :)

If only I had the money, I'd consider making the switch. Looks like a gorgeous camera to be sure.

Yup, but I wouldn't change, too heavily invested in Nikon. I'd just shoot both systems....(need a lottery win, me thinks)

It's nice to dream (and quite inexpensive too!).

Salivating just thinking about it. I'm tempted...but i can't really justify the cost at the moment. I can't blame you for considering dumping Nikon, it seems like the sort of camera that's worth jumping ship for.

Not dumping Nikon's superior gear, just thinking out loud....

Nothing wrong with thinking - or dreaming!
(Unless you start confusing thinking with communicating and dreaming with reality.... ;) )

I'm with you the lottery win!

Give Nikon a bit more time. The OEM's are always playing leapfrog when it comes to features on their newest line.

Again, I'm solid Nikon. This new body is the ONLY Canon that interests me, and because of two lenses. The 16-35 f/2.8 is a tad faster than Nikon's f/4 offering, and the MP-E65 f/2.8 macro, which Nikon doesn't even try to compete with. I'm very patient....:whistle:
