I'm writing the unboxing and initial impressions of both cameras right now. I'm going into as much detail as I can. So far I've got about 3 pages of just text, and I haven't gotten to the D800 yet.
Honestly, it really depends on how the testing goes, on what we do with the cameras. We're going to try to keep the shutter clicks to a minimum, but our intention is to do a thorough review of both cameras. If we don't like them, or think they aren't worth their price, they'll go up for sale.
But, very briefly, our initial impressions (without taking a single shot from either camera), were that we were both impressed with the build quality and ergonomics on the Mark III. On the other hand, the D800 was packaged noticeably better, but its build quality and ergonomics left us a bit disappointed (Mike was disappointed to the point of being pissed). Anyways, I'll go into more detail later why.
