The thing I see zero benefit from, however, is a Dura Ace cassette. For the price difference, I say no way. I've ridden Ultegra cassettes for the most part. The Dura Ace cassettes I've had have been throw-ins that came with a used wheel set.
As far as Campy vs Shimano, it all works. Depends on taste. I like Campy stuff a lot too.

I pretty much run Ultegra level consumables and D/A everything else
...when my bike isn't already Ultegra that is!
