I've read that the 1DIV is supposed to follow it's targets pretty well, even if other objects get in the way it can still follow to a certain extent. I haven't experienced this myself, but all through reading. Sounds impressive.
So, if a majority of the nikons or all of them can do that, then that's very impressive and can hardly wait until canon catches up on that...
