I have no idea how anyone puts up with Nikon

What a mad thread! :eek:

I used my Nikon D5100 alongside my Canon 70D and have had NO issues with either, whether editing RAW or JPEG. Sure they both have differences, but I can't say one needs more WB work than the other, as it depends on the individual shot... in fact, on the whole, I prefer the cooler WB of the Nikon (which I have now sold, so I'm 100% Canon now) and will generally edit the Canon shots towards a cooler WB.

I would honestly say I have to do more correction with the Canon shots to get a 'perfect' exposure balance (for what I'm looking for) over the Nikon, which seems to have a far greater latitude to keep things in balance... though it may down to my insistence on using the manual mode only :D

Totally agree. Canon cripple their exposure. I hate it. every full frame camera nikon makes (at the d750 and above) shares the same excellent exposure system and spot metering that links that to your AF point. Canon, on the other hand, put in a not great exposure systems in the 5dmk3 - it should match the 1dx. the 1dx is also the only one which links spot metering to AF point. Omitting that from the 5dmk3 is a joke. And to be honest its the thorn in the side of the 7dmk2 too, which at least had a good metering system but still doesnt have spot with af point.

Still, all of this is preferable to the amount of work Nikon files need :)
