A little History.., since I did switch Camp.
My 1st camera was a Nikon F70 (Film), it's has been great camera, until I start using it at low temperture.. (Snowy weather)! Bascially the buttons get stuck...
So I decided to upgrade to the Nikon F100, which again is probably the best camera I ever had. Awesome metering, spot meter, Flash sync at 1/250, and much lighter than F5, best of all, it fit my hand like a glove..! Indeed, I know many photographer agree that it's one of the best camera body out there..!
When Digital starting to hit.., I kept my F100 for about a year along with my first Digital SLR Fuji S2 Pro (Nikon F-Mount)
I think it's one of the better camera at the time for image quality, and relatively low noise at ISO400. Nikon has the D100 at the time, which I think image quality isn't as good in comparison..!
However, there are quite abit of no good factors on the S2 Pro
1> Flash sync to 1/125 only
2> AF not very accurate, and very slow..!
3> Raw to JPG is limited to the Fuji software, if you want the best quality.
4> Flash is extremely inconsistance on TTL, so I have to use it at auto, but then I have to manually change the aperture setting on the flash as well..!
So, I have been patiently waiting for something good to come out at Nikon...!
Until the Canon 1Dm2 came out.., I just couldn't wait anymore, since my investment on lenses are crazy at the time...( Have a used 300 f/2.8 that I was able to sell w/o losing any money), so I decided to swtiched to Canon.. 1Dm2)
Honsetly, I think may other people switched..to Canon for the same reason.
The 1Dm2 is fast, low noise, 1.3X cropping, and it has far better image quality.
While I wish I can get full frame.., 1.3x would do at the time..!
Only when I started making some money doing weddings.., and I decided to go full frame.., 1DsM2 which is my current camera..! Beside weight, and the fact that the grip still isn't very good. I have to say that the camera is nearly perfect! There are other minor complaints..!
Would I switch back to Canon, probably..not anytime soon. Maybe I'll just add a Nikon Full Frame camera, if the price gets low enough, but not anytime soon either..!
Money has to spent on feeding the baby first..!
