At the recent ImagingUSA trade show and conference in Nashville, both Canon and Nikon had large booths. Canon dedicated a significant amount of time to showing off the video capabilities of their cameras. They had live demos on stage showing off video and the accessories that make it easier to shoot. In the Nikon booth, video was a mere bullet point on a slide. I think this is just one more symptom that Nikon isn’t taking video/fusion as seriously as Canon. And in my opinion, that’s a mistake.

I agree, that mjpeg isn´t the problem. I like it more than H264, especially in terms of post production. Something like DVCPROHD with 100mbps would be really fine...
 
There's a Nikon press conference on the 3rd of february. Hopefully the D900 will have D3s like ISO performance, manual control, 1080p, and higher bit-rate mjpeg. If it has all that I'll get rid of the 5D MKII.

A D90 replacement shouldn't be too far away either.

Do you think it will shoot 60fps?
 
Nikon could surprise us but I seriously doubt it. But if they fix 720p with more framrates than 24p (not likely), manual control and as good as or better IQ than what Canons 1080p has I could look at Nikon again.
 
Nikon has zero plans to update firmware in d90/d5000 according to a rep who responded to an email.

It ain't gonna happen....
