I'm not quite sure whether I was more smitten with the build and video quality of the new Nikon D4 and D800 cameras or the quality glass that we fitted to the front of them. Glass is an investment for the future whereas camera technology, certainly at the moment is constantly changing. In the DSLR world however the Canon 5DmkII has remained the undisputed champion for quite some time, completely unlike Nikons first video DSLR the D90 with its unimpressive rolling shutter and awful strobing when shooting under fluro and tungsten lights the new challengers to the 5DmkII crown are impressively good.
This is by no means an indepth review, nor is it a shootout, much to the despair I imagine for a number of you who are toying with the thought of jumping ship or simply buying into the DSLR revolution that has been splitting the video industry for the last few years. I own a 5DmkII as well as a traditional video camera and am neither in one camp nor the other, at the end of the day they are both tools for different jobs, you wouldn't use a screwdriver with a nail, would you?
