The problem with most people is they invest so much in lenses that it's not easy (or cheap) to swap brands. So for me I will most likely always be Canon.
Canon fanboy, unashamedly, since the early eighties!

I'd still push my Canon/s rather than drive a Nikon.
But each to their own.
Nikon = Helping stop the stupid people from driving a Canon.

It is Pentax all the way for me I have use Nikon and Canon and i have Fuji in the draw some where.
When I voted Nikon was just behind. Now I come back for a second look and Canon has really pulled away.
I think this proves that Canon users are just a bit slow.
1 year now with Nikon.
If case you are interested, I came from FujiFilm FinePix. Before digital cameras I used Canon 300 (rebel) after Pentax K1000.

I remember that the first SLR I ever bought was a Canon A1. Went into hibernation from photography for a 20 odd years. Then received a 350D as a gift a couple of years back and started taking up photograpy again. My wife bought me a 7D last year and looking forward to buying a 5D should my skills improve (soon I hope).
My old film camera is a Nikon FM2 (still love it) and also ran a F601 for a long time.
First digital camera was a Canon 350D before changing to a 1DMkIII. Now looking at full frame and, with a line of Canon glass for digital, I am quite happy to stay with Canon.
So I guess to poll with one word it will have to be Canon

Switched from a Canon 50D to Nikon D7000 two years ago and havn't looked back.
Two reasons for the switch - was constantly have to fix white balance on the Canon. Canon was great for still people/objects but for sport nothing special.
My first sport image from the Nikon was my best in the last 5 years, and it is now a very rare thing for me to mess with the white balance.
Anyway you use what works for you

Please don't let this thread become a 'my brand is better' thread. Vote, post about what brand you have, but leave out digs at other brands. Otherwise I will close the thread for posts and only allow voting. We are all photographers and our photos are what counts, not what label is stamped on our gear.
