:ROTFL:Since Canon launched their DSLR with video and articulated LCD years before Nikon, I think it must have been during the early fifties, it would only be fair if Nikon threw in the towel and closed down business completely. Still, I hope that they will soldier on for yet a few years, so that those of us who are not found worthy of purchasing a product conceived by Canon's divine leaders, can find a camera humble enough for our lacking abilities.
