Hey guys,

I have a 500D and fancy upgradeing and I need your advice, would you go with a 600d a 60D, 7D or a 5D MKII?
 
I have a 50mm 1.8 (I love that lens), the kit lens, Sigma 10-20mm f4-5.6 and the Canon 55-250 (been trying to find what I like doing so I haven't lashed out on a more costly lens)

I like to do a bit of everything if im honest (I'm one of them people who just walk about with there camera and try to capture the moment) but I mostly like landscapes and portraits nothing sporty but I would like the camera to have a good auto focus... So I was leaning more towords the 7D but I noticed the 60D has 18MP and wonderd if its as good as the 7D just with out the faster memory cards?

**EDIT
I want one that can handle high ISO well for them night time walks.

I forgot about the lens issue, I watched that video as well and it looks like 550D / 60D and 7D are all as good as each other, but then 60D buttons ant as nice but I have 2 32gb SD cards so that would save me money.. and the burst mode I dont use.. but then again the 7D is more of a pro built camera *pulls hair out* lol

Money aside, what would you go with.. a 7D or a 60D? I want a camera that should last me a while now and produce image quailty that is noticeably diffrent from my 500D.
 
Thanks guys, after a lot of thinking I'm going to save up a bit more and grab the 7D and some good lenses would you recomend the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4.0 L IS USM Lens?
 
I find everytime I listen to the rumours I end up having a long wait! lol I'm half way saved so next month sometime if there is no release date then I'll just pick up a 7D body with a memory card.

I was looking at the lens for a all round lens, It would give me 50mm - 80mm and higher for when i need to zoom in a bit.. The lens you use sounds intresting, but I like the 80mm kind of range but I think I need to think of what I want to focus on more and pick one of the two on that.
