Nucleon form factors are calculated on q2\ensuremath∈[0,3]GeV2 using an ansatz for the nucleon's Faddeev amplitude motivated by quark-diquark solutions of the relativistic Faddeev equation. Only the scalar diquark is retained, and it and the quark are confined. A good description of the data requires a nonpointlike diquark correlation with an electromagnetic radius of 0.8r_\ensuremathπ. The composite, nonpointlike nature of the diquark is crucial. It provides for diquark-breakup terms that are of greater importance than the diquark photon absorption contribution.
