It's also not embarrassing to put a nifty fifty on your 5D3!

For me I've never really wanted to hold a Nikon and have always wanted a Canon. Weird!

It was my sisters wedding yesterday and the first time I've ever had gear envy
The photographer had two nikon bodies I think D4 iirc. My god I can't wait to see his pictures because he used flash probably once. He showed me a few images when I got chance to speak to him. The high iso stuff was simply stunning.
He used A lot of primes and watching him lob lenses into a bag with no caps had me shuddering
I was struggling at times with the 2.8s I have on a crop, I absolutely must have a FF. This years bonus is going on one

Dude has a point ^^^
Yeah that was my understanding of it. Again I was led to believe the only time it can apply it is if you post process using dpp and it will use those settings on a raw as a starting point
All the information I have ever read has stated picture styles have no effect on your raw file other than a preview on the screen. I have no idea how that would effect your video files which was what made me curious with the comment mrk made
About time lol
Does the amount of light in the view finder look different though or affect framing between the two cameras? Interesting points! Thanks for the comparison. Did you take any shots side by side with them?
The D800 viewfinder I felt was a shade darker although that may well be because the viewfinder itself was smaller and because of that, less light entering it.
Composing and manually focusing is definitely better on the 5D due to it being bigger. It's really weird because the eyepiece itself looks bigger on the D800.
I took some sample shots with the Nikkor 50 1.8 and my Sigma at the same so will upload those when I get home later. Both cams were at the saw settings for exposure although it's not really easy to match up the other settings because of the way they are both set up and the difference in metering systems.
Still it should be a decent rough guide on what kind of difference to expect!

I'll get the pics soon enough!
On another note though I think that the Sigma batteries I bought are playing funny games and not the grip now because even with one battery in the body only I saw drop charge by 10% and that was only taking a few pics both on and off live view over about 30 mins.
