For landscape and occasional wildlife, is the R worth the extra £200 or so?

I personally went with the Nikon D810.
It would be hard to justify buying the Canons
at even money, but to me there was no way I was going to pay $1000 extra for the 5D-series over the D810.
Canon 5DSr - $3,899
Canon 5DS - $3,699
Nikon D810 - $2,796Buying the Nikon D810 gave me a $900 savings over the 5DS and an $1,100 savings over the $5DSr ... and for (IMO) a better overall camera to boot.
While the Canon 5DS (and Sr) have better resolution, the Nikon D810 has better everything else (from DR, to color range, to tonal range, etc.).
In 2 years, I believe the D810 will be worth more than the 5DS(r) duo also ... because it is an across-the-board better camera ... and while the Canons may have more mpx, they can't really keep their heads above water in the rest of the important categories.
I am not sure how many Canon lenses you have (and if I had a bunch of Canon lenses to dump, it might not have been worth the switch), but for me personally, with only a handful of Canon lenses, I actually broke even after selling my Canon lenses on eBay while enjoying the $1,100 price advantage of the D810.
For landscape especially, I would have gone with the D810.
That's my $0.02.
