If a mysterious benefactor offered to purchase all the latest
equipment... everything you want/need... would you do it?
Oh, the catch... you'd have to switch from Nikon to Canon or Canon to
Nikon and you had to keep and use it for 5 years minimum... no selling
or trading it and going back to your current brand.
Ok, now, would you do it? |

Of course, there's no real differences between the two any more, and
the high-end stuff of either brand is better than what most are using
now. I'd switch in a heartbeat if someone else was footing the bill. |

If I could get some fool to buy me a new Nikon D-3 and all the lenses I
wanted, I'd take it, even if I had to keep 'em for 5 years (or more).
I'm assuming the prohibition against trading/selling wouldn't apply to
upgrading to a Nikon D-4 body, if/when it became available within the 5
years.
I currently shoot Pentax and am reasonably happy with my equipment, but
if someone's handing out freebies ... >> Stay informed about: Just for fun... |

NO... Never took a gift from a mysterious person in my life and this
wouldn't tempt me to start. Try Bret... He does well in this area I'm
told. >> Stay informed about: Just for fun... |

It's a simple 'yes' or 'no' scenario. This qualification makes your
answer 'no'. >> Stay informed about: Just for fun... |

Upgrading within your 'new' brand would be acceptable. Just no going
back.
FWIW: I agree with everybody who would do it in a heartbeat, also. >> Stay informed about: Just for fun... |

Yes, only I just bought a Canon AND a Nikon, but yeah, take those for
five years and give me whichever,as long as it's over 8 megapixels.
Canon and Nikon are BOTH cool, my shutterbug husband says
Do YOU have both a traditional darkroom AND a digital "darkroom"? HE
does. And I will be using them.
