I am sure that Canon will come roaring back. That said, I get a feeling that
Canon are more a marketing company, with many models being introduced with
incremental upgrades, compared to Nikon who seem to be more engineering
oriented, introducing models which are more spaced out with more tangible
benefits. Over a period, both methods sort of even out, though.
