Hell GTW,



Mine mirror came off last December. And even though I bought my 5D second hand, the repair was still free, because it is a common problem amongst the 5D's. So, don't worry about it.



Although when you are out in the field with your camera, it can be frustrating when the mirror comes off and you just spotted Big Foot or Nessie(Loch Ness Monster). But then again, camera's always tend to fail operation when you meet them anyway <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' /> .



Best wishes,

If I were you, my main concern would be the mirror boxes in the old 5Ds which I've heard some say fall off after they're used a bit.



Also, if the higher resolution, higher ISOs or the movies don't matter to you, I'm not sure why you'd want to go full frame in the first place. There is ofcourse shallower DOF but you can never have ISOs too high (or noise too low) <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />



Btw, congratulations on your new arrivals <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
