I am currently using a Nikon D3 and various pro lenses, but feel that now I have started a business with a canon user and have a studio that the 5D MKII would be better suited and also provide continuity over the business as buying lenses and things in the future could be used by both photographers.

The only problem is I do love my Nikon (although I get on with Canon well). I am not sure what to do. I switched from canon to nikon to get the better build of the D3, but now the build of the 5D MkII is good and I am doing more studio work therefore the build quality is not as important now that i am not doing as much travel stuff.

Not sure what step to take as i am tempted and can see benefits in both staying with Nikon and swapping to canon.
 
Sell the D3 and get a 5DII and a D700 for the weekends? :D
 
My brother shoots with a 5DII and has a stack of lenses. I've a D700 and a few lenses. I bought the 5DII and gave it a go (to be able to share gear), ended up selling it as I preferred the Nikon. For studio work? Might be worth switching, but if you're used to the D3 you may regret it.
 
Stick with the D3 for the moment,see how it goes,you can both try each others gear out,maybe he might to switch to the D3,or you to the Canon,i dont see it being much of a problem to start of with :)
