I could put an extra £400 in and upgrade my 5D1 to a 5D2.
One of these days! I played with one last weekend. I want it

Don't play with toys you want but can't afford, it makes the itch all that much more itchy lol
Is it 1.2K? I read it somewhere that it was £1999

To make you feel better, I have a only have a 350D with a 17-50*
*and also a 5D2 with a 24-70
You complete bar steward !
This is the combo I have been lusting after for months. Keep on following auctions hoping no-one else will have spotted it....
Just on the verge of selling my Canon 17-85 EFS and Sigma 10-20 in order to get hold of one to go with my 40D. I fully intend to go FF at some point so see this as a great first step.

I mean instead of buying a 24-70L IS for £1.2k, I could add £400 to get £1.6k and get a 5D2. Not sure if I made that clear in my first post.
My God, if I could spend £400 and give up my 5D1 for a 5D2 I would be very

The mk2 doesn't add anything over the mk1 though (except video). I genuinely don't see what the mk2 offers a mk1 owner.

- Increased ISO performance
- Larger/better LCD (the 5D1 LCD is poor to say the least)
- Automatic sensor cleaning (I have to regularly clean my sensor with a rocket blower, and even then it is still filthy)
- Video, as you mentioned, which I am extremely interested in
- Live View
Those are things that matter to me, but there are a few more things, such as Micro-AF adjustment, increased 98% viewfinder and of course a new DIGIC IV processor.
