The Nikon D3 is full frame, offering 9 frames per second, 12 megapixels, and an astonishing 25,600 ISO. The older 1D Mark III offers 10 megapixels in a smaller APS-H (1.3x crop) sensor, a faster 10 frames per second, but much more limited ISO capabilities maxing out at ISO 6,400.

The Nikon has thus far proved it’s bullet-proof reliability, and is widely considered the state-of-the-art photojournalist camera, while the Canon has been plagued with autofocus issues.

Professional reviewers aside, and assuming supply can meet demand, the street price the cameras can maintain are as good an indicator as any as to how well the camera is received by the general public:
