Wasn't there a similar debate years ago about Rodenstock vs Schneider lenses? :)
More to the point, the D4 is supposed to be built like a tank for heavy duty use by photo journalists, etc. Thing is for my personal use, I see no need for it over my Nikon D7000, which is about 1/6th the cost. On the other hand, when the new 36 meg, full frame D800 comes out..... temptation, temptation.........
Bottom line is, I love my D7000, but with the new year, I am looking at stocking up on some more 4x5 tri-x. Totally different animals, but I love my Nikon D7000 as much as I love my Tachihara 4x5. I figure it's like owning a Mustang and a Jeep at the same time, just depends on where you are going and what kind of mood you are in.
:D
