What happens when a Canon shooter uses a Nikon?

You guys are stroppy and not doing yourselves any favours. You totally epitimize the Canon vs Nikon debate. Complain, Whinge, Not Objective, blah blah blah. Did you not read this:

I understand camera and imaging technology but I don't obsess over custom functions and AF point placement algorithms. I like taking pictures, and hope my camera for the most part “just works”. I guess as a result, my commentary won't be particularly technical.

From this stand point I quite like his findings. And it helps me to understand the fanatical loyalties between each camp a little more. It depends what you value. He values the subjective output of his lenses for a more artitistic style, but he understands why Nikons may be more suitable to other styles of photography.

I love that we have a choice.

I would disagree with your assessment of the replies. I never mentioned what I shoot or if that had any bearing on my opinion. My issue is people claiming one is better than the other or in the case of this guy comparing the two on unequal levels. The majority of things he discussed have more to do with lens quality than camera bodies.

I don't care what anyone shoots with just like I don't care what anyone drives. Just don't tell me one is better if you don't even know the basics.
