Go for it Wayne.

Sensors are like real estate. Its often some fabulous features at the compromise of others.

Small pixels means lower light sensitivity but potentially higher resolution.
There's always the D4 for low light sensitivity or a D700 or D3s or x.

D700's should be cheaper on Ebay for a while.

I reckon the 800E sounds hot.

I wonder how Canon will respond. I personally will wait to see what the 5D Mark iii will be before I buy but I am in no rush.
At this stage I am thinking the D800 will be very very hard for Canon to top but who knows. I'd say Nikon is playing catchup with Canon
with regards to the video side of things though.D800 video sounds a bit more flexible than the 5DMkii but the 5D Mkii has been around for a few years now.

Rumours are a 5D Mark iii or 5Dx announcement Feb 28 so it may not be a long wait.

Greg.
