Want To Spend My Money?

LOL I likely will go to the 5D if I decide to get anything ... the 1DIII would be nice, but that high ISO on the 5D just sings to me...

How much are they KJA?

[kja]

5dII is the better part of $4000 at the moment ... I think about $3800ish?

If it will make your job easier, one of the photographers at my bro's wedding

yesterday was using a 5d indoors and he didn't seem to be using flash. We swapped

contact details so we can check out each other's work :D

5d is no good to me as I do too much telephoto stuff :wink:

Don't ask me, I'm tossing up whether to buy a 70-200 2.8 IS or 100-400 L

I'd get the 5D if I didn't live for the reach of a crop body

Chuck it all in and get a Nikon D3 :rolleyes:

I want a 5D

I'm getting depressed looking at some awesome 5D photos on Flickr. I wanna shoot low light without flash

Just a little longer...

Ash - have you looked into finding a used 5D? From the guys I know who have both, they aren't letting the 5Ds go and use them just as much as their new 5DIIs...but lots of people are letting them go for a song. I considered a used 5D but am on a time crunch so didn't spend any time looking.

In real life use the newer 5D is only just nudging out the low light performance of the original and by most accounts that nudge is so slight it's barely worth mentioning. And this is what I'm being told and shown by people who are notorious at getting people to spend way more money than they need to so it's kinda weird to have them nudging me that way!
