A question for people who have upgraded to full frame!

Was it worth it?

and what about the 5D do you feel that you need over the 400D?

full frame
better shots at high ISO
more comfortable ergonomic design

that's it

..also, i can get 5D body only at 40% of the standard RRP

i just bought the EF 100mm 2.8
...i also own the shitty 18-55mm that comes with the 400D.

will buy L series 24-105mm (IS)

will also buy a decent wide angle lens since i enjoy taking wide landscape shots.

i mostly shoot: macro - portraits

the 5d is long overdue for an update, which means that canon probably has one up the pipeline somewhere and they just haven't announced it.

so, i would wait. if you absolutely, hafta gotta shoot full frame, shoot some film.

7D is rumored already. not quite sure if its confirmed since im a nikon user so im not really following it.

i'm sure. there were also rampant rumors about the D3 and D300 starting about a month after the D200 was released.

it's so easy when everything is released in numerical order.

you have pretty damn good points

i guess i can shoot with full frame film in the meantime and wait for the upgrade.. which should be due soon
