I'd agree on the reasoning totaly so I'd say we do agree. For me the current result is that the 5D is best for my needs (Or the 1DMKII,1DsMK2 but I can't afford!).

I'd also add something I'm sure we'll both agree on. For most use up to about A3 size most people would get results that are more than satisfactory from either brand.

To be honest handling/build wise I'd choose a Nikon unless I was suing a 1 Series in which case it's down to taste. With lenses it's six and two threes between Nikon&Canon. Again I love my 85mm f/1.2 L II so much I have to stick with Canon. It's down to my style of shooting that I am a Canon user originally and now I am locked in the lens system it's unlikely I'd change. That said when I shoot weddings with my fellow tog he's on Nikon and I'm on Canon and the albums end up roughly 50/50 and only we can tell which was which system except in low low light when the 5D excells.
