Try shooting with a Hasselblad and a DSLR under the same lighting and see which one is better! Otherwise, just compare a Canon 5D2 with 85 f/1.2 against a Nikon D3 with 85 f/1.4.

In my honest Newbie Opinion, cameras are just tools. also, beauty is subjective. FF bodies are just bodies with no or little crop factor. that doesn't affect how good a photographer you are or how you want your images to be seen. Beauty is subjective, Brand is also subjective.

but as for kentuckyranger's post... i stand corrected.
