I could do some things with the new Canon 1D MK IV, and since you're already in my neighborhood, you could just leave it here.

You really are the best with these contest. They are very appreciated, and I hope they are doing your business good :-)
As far as which camera... I would personally prefer the Canon, but I think everyone has a point. If you throw a Nikon in there, you will increase your views that much more. And if you do what you did with the 5D (offering an equivalent value gift certificate to a photo site), us Canon lovers (or slaves to our lenses) will be just as happy.
I'd like to have either one since I'm a third party (Sony) shooter. I do know Sony makes the Nikon sensors and I also have some Nikon flashes so I'm a bit biased on Nikon and I haven't tried shooting full-frame yet.
If I win, it'll be really cool 'coz I'm probably one of the few here in the Philippines who's been listening to your podcasts. And if I don't, it's still a good thing you're doing helping the Photographer society.
Both 1D MK IV and D3s surpass any camera I could ever afford... But I would like to see Santa-Bourne give a Nikon camera away this time.

You are like Father Christmas, always giving wonderful toys out! Nikon, yes I am a newbie but I must say, for all my inexperience, I like the feel of the Nikon. Winning is very nice, so if you decide on Canon, I would not refuse. 'o]

While I agree that it's past time for a Nikon giveaway... I'm a Canon shooter and want that 1DmkIV :P
Why don't you wait until you pick a winner and let the winner decide which one they get.

I would love either one. I just love being out there shooting. Thanks Scott for all that you and everyone else are doing for photography.

I think you should give away the D3s, To me!
Ok I'm kidding, but if it's for a D3s I'll be entering it.

Scott, I've enjoyed your kind sharing since I discovered TWIP (and soooo miss you there) and now on Photofocus. You are one of the most generous photographers in the business. I was tickled that you switched to Nikon! Rock ON friend!

It's not the camera... how about some glass? (Don't shoot C or N, so no real preference)
Both seem to be great cameras but having the Canon Xsi and now the Canon 7D, I'm a bit prejudiced toward's the Canon family.

I prefer the Nikon 3Ds. I only have nikkor / F-mount lenses. However; at this point my lenses are too low-budget to handle a 3Ds. It would be like fitting those small spare-tires (80km/h) on a formula 1 car.
Both! :) I voted for the MK IV because I'm a Canon guy but either camera would make someone very happy. Considering you don't have to give anything away I don't think you can go wrong with either choice (although I'm sure someone will complain either way).
No matter what you choose to do I would like to say thanks for everything that you have given back to the photography community!

Yeah, time to give Nikon a turn. Besides, I only have Nikkor lenses ;-)
Canon all the way and hopefully I will win. Like Richard I own a 50d as well as a film 30E....love them both and would love opportunity to love the 1D Mk IV though currently cant afford one ;p
Nikon!

How about TWO Nikon D700 giveaways for the same money? Doubling the chance of winning one :)
A great Nikon giveaway is WAY overdue!

NIKON! 'nuff said.
Both would be great but I chose canon
Hmmm... Pro full-frame vs pro crop... D3s!!!

Canon, of course.
I want better odds. Give away 10 Canon G11s!
The 1D Mark IV will increase your number of followers more than the Nikon.

TY for the contest
I would LOVE a Canon EOS 1D Mk IV
I currently have a 50D and love it to pieces
You've given away plenty of Canon stuff. It's time for Nikon.
