I have itchy fingers... It's feeling like time to buy a new Canon body. I enjoy both my 40d. I'm not persuaded by the 7d (too many quibbles, and I wouldn't use the video), and there seems little point swapping from a 40D to a 50D. Which, all in all, gives me the ammo to go for one of the 1d range, second hand. But which? The mark II seems decent value at around £5-600. The mark III second-hand price seems to be around £1800.
So... is the mark III worth the extra £1300 for a man with a new child and thus new financial commitments? Or would a move from 40D to a 1d mkII be a savvier use of a few hundred quid?
