I never thought I would say this, but I am seriously considering switching from Nikon to Canon. Thoughts?

The 1Ds MkIII is a 22MP powerhouse that costs $8,000, using one of Canon's sharpest lenses. Did you seriously expect your 12MP, $1700 D200 to have the same resolving power? Also, what lens were you using?
Bottom line, unless you're getting paid to make the switch, don't bother. You'll be taking a huge hit, not to mention you're looking at at least $10,000 for the most basic of hardware with that body.
Canon lenses are generally said to be better.
It just sort of bothers me trying to find the real reason why every pro I know of uses a Canon.
You guys, what would I do without you....
Thanks a lot for all your contributions. I think I will stick with Nikon for now. It just sort of bothers me trying to find the real reason why every pro I know of uses a Canon.
On the other hand, I've had a Nikon 50/1.8 and I currently own a 50/1.4 and to be honest, the 50/1.8 was the sharper of the two.

Because among pro's, they're the best you can get.

Better AF performance was why sports pros left Nikon in the 1990s. There's never been anything compelling enough since then to get them all to switch back. That's why you see all the white lenses at sports events.
