An interesting read. He/she makes a few factual errors, and the article is highly inclusive of personal prejudice and interpretation. All in all it seems that someone was trying to juistify their purchase to someone else.

My take is simple - Canon or Nikon, both outstading platforms. There are things I like better about both. To me, the most important item of all is how does the camera feel in your hand. It's not about features, bells and whistles, etc. It's about feel.

Having friends that will loan you lenses is a powerful reason too!!
