hi /p/

I'm a 400D user and I love using my camera but I've only played with a 1DMk2N some time ago before I even got my 400D.

If I tried out a 5D, would I shit bricks (about what I'm missing out on)?

Nothing you wouldn't get from an x0D series, except a larger sensor with all the differences (with regard to noise, viewfinder size, dynamic range, depth of field, field of view, etc.) that entails. The only one of those that really matters is the finder size, and x0D series do have large enough finders. In other words, the 5D is overrated, although any non-entry-level DSLR will be a marked improvement from your Rebel in ergonomics.

Great sensor and a nice viewfinder, but the 5D is getting long in the tooth.

So who's psyched up for Tuesday? Crazy internet rumor says there's gonna be a 5DII announcement! Woo! Completely unverifiable sources FTW!

I'm excited to hear about it, even though I won't be able to purchase one in a long time (or a 5D either for a long time). OP here btw. I'm a little more psyched for sunday. I'll get to know whether or not I get a chance to win a Nikon D60 (and sell it) so that I can buy myself a film body to go with my XTi and a pair of lenses.

Wow! Another internet rumour! I can't wait!

I'm losing track of the new gear release rumours there are so many.

There's been a 5D MK II rumour almost every other month and at PMA the were all the idiots at dpreview claiming they had "insider knowledge" from Canon employees that it was going to be there. That didn't work out. Funny how these people swearing it was completely true go very quiet afterwards as the crawl back into the woodwork.

I'll wait until Canon comes out with something before I get interested, even then it will probably be $3000+ so I'll not be getting my hands on it for a long time.

Actually, cut that. I'm up for when the 5D mk2 is old and I'm ready to purchase it cheap when I'm ready for an upgrade.

I'm waiting for the 1Ds with a 3" screen.
