Very similar situation for me. Shot with a Canon 5D for 2 years, went with a Leica M8 and Zeiss lenses for a year or so and now shoot with a Nikon D700 and Zeiss lenses.Depends on what you want to do with it. I used to own a M8 as well as a D5. Now I own 3 film Leicas, MF cameras, Nikon film and D700.
Sold the the M8 because of the low light performance.
Sold the D5 because of the overdone AA filter (waxy smooth digital images), ergonomics that I could never get used to and other minor issues.
D700 with Zeiss glass combines the best features of M8 and D5 for me.
