Yeah, probably, spring is coming.  :-)   Guess I just wanted to str 
things up a bit and see what's up with Nikon without doing any research.

No way! The 5D is right around my size/weight tipping point. I'd like 
the D3 high iso performance, but I figure Canon will get close next 
round. And the D3 is expensive, considering I have no use for much of 
what that cost is for.

I hate sounding like a Canon evangelist. Never liked them in the MF 
days. It was Nikon, then OM. But so far, Canon has been making the 
cameras I would buy if all cameras came with the names blacked out. I 
really like what Pentax has been doing their DSLRs, but I'm not sure I 
would be happy going back down from FF.

No, more just not having enough time and memory left to keep up with 
everything. I've actually warmed up to WA quite a bit recently. I'm 
really enjoying the FF Tammy 17-35.
