I guess what I gotta do is get to a camera shop tomorrow and lay my hands and eyeballs on each and compare.. Online comparisons of the 40D vs the D300 still show the Nikon to, IMHO, have the edge while fairly similar in price...
And I'm very aware of user bias as I'm guilty of it myself when comparing other rifles to Win. M70s... I own 'em, I build 'em and I just love that rifle.. Even though there's no doubt other rifles can perform just as well, if not better in some cases, there's just nothing like a M70... You Canon boys can appreciate this in your area, I know...
I will give honest consideration to both lines. I just have to get off the paper comparisons and do the hands-on tests..
