they both are superb and you will not be disappointed with any of them...what is your fav genere of photography (birding, landscape, macro, portrait etc)?

thirdparty lenses/flashs are available equally for both . I can explain more but 1st answer my above question :)

If image quality is your highest priority than go for Nikon as it has got a better sensor but you can go for Canon if you need wider lens choice specially in telephoto category.

Difference may not be very visible all the time as it’s not just the sensor but in general Nikon have far better sensors than Canon and I have experienced this again and again.

Check this for details.

It may not be a fare comparison to do but my 7D sucks above 400 ISO and I have got very usable shot on D4 at 32000 ISO

I am not comparing, how can I compare a prosumer crop body with flagship full frame.

You can see your comparison here

I guess Canon 5D III and Nikon D4 will still not be a fare comparison so lets compare

Wow [MENTION=39722]sujoyp[/MENTION] I just noticed you have the Tammy 90mm. Yesterday I spent 5 hrs between a Zeiss , Tokina and Tammy. Finally bought the Tokina 100mm F2.8! Got a Ringflash and Aputure V Control UFC 1S too. Next it has to be a Zeiss Lens ...... Its results are to be seen to be believed.

@inci there is really no comparision between Zeiss and other two ...but price matters too ...I was also thinking of ring flash..but it cost 5k+ and I dont want led ring flash which I found out to be almost useless .
