60d with "L" lens or 7d with standard efs
#32
Thanks for the liveley debate, I hadn't intended to spark off such controversy.... <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Wink' />



This has really made me think, and go back to what I used to do, the types of shots I used to take, and what I am looking to acheive by my next move.



I also had a long hard look at the full frame APS-C debate on the Forum.



I never used to use the standard lens on my Minolta, I nearly always had either the 100mm f2, or the 28mm on, with the other in my pocket. The majority of shots I actually take with my Eos 350D and 18-55 are at either end of the zoom range.



I have a 24mm sigma f2.8 (early nineties vintage) which does at a push, so am I barking mad to consider a Eos 5DII, along with an 85mm f1.8, a combo which I can just about afford, (I hope the missus doesn't read this forum). I can use the 75-300 while I save up for a higher quality telephoto, and a faster wide-angle.



a further thought on the Lens speed debate, it seems to me once you have a daylight filter on, you are losing another stop, and for flash you are just gobbling up the guide numbers, to the point that the cheap studio flash kit I bought many moons ago is useless.



Another thing is that the 5d is 2 years old, is it due an uplift soon? it seems to be getting heavily discounted at the moment.
