ok some idiot lent me his 5d mark 2 kit (24-105L lens) for a while and I was just blown away from the image quality that that combination delivered.
I wanted to upgrade my kit to full frame early next year but i am a Nikon user.
So I borrowed the kit agian, used it in comparison with a borrowed d700 and still loved it better (the D700 had the 24-70 f2.8 lens i think).
So my mind is made, i will get a Canon and L glass next.
Now the question I am a bit cash short since the plan was to get a D700 no replace my entire kit .
I can get a Canon 5D with only 6000 pictures taken and Canon checked for about 1000 euros where the new 5d mark 2 will cost me nearly double that without a lens.
I was thinking of taking the 5d and then get at least one good L lens (the 24-105 ) but I have not used a 5D so I am wondering if it produces images just as nice and if the Video mode and double the megapixels is worth the cash for a MK2.
If I get a MK2 I will have to live with the 50mm 1.8 for some time before I can get L glass
Any advice?
Cheers already,
