Originally posted by falconeye But aren't their lenses like the new 24-70G worth the money?
Nikon makes a fantastic 3 lens setup all 2.8 the 14-24, 24-70, 70-200 but that 3 lens kit with a D800e will set you back a hair under $10,000
all 3 lenses are pretty much as good as it gets in zoom land and they are as sharp as most primes out there
So like many others i would like to see that FF Pentax come along that lets me use my existing lenses as I buy up to newer better ones over time. If I wasn't on a fixed budget I'd pickup the Nikon kit (and add the 24 1.4 35 1.4 50 1.2 and the 85 1.4 G to round it out)
Sadly though i don't have a spare $16000
With the release of the D800e and the D4 I think Nikon has really come out with the Canon killers to recover their lost supremacy (they certainly ruled until the digital age)
the most exciting thing i've seen from canon was the Cine DSLR stuff which is more a red arriflex product (and since you can get the lenses from canon in mounts for red and arriflex I'm not sure the camera body will do the numbers but the lenses will sell for certain)
