    That was the link to the 1Ds Mk II (I don't know why I just got a message saying I can't edit my post...)

    AUD RRP $12,999.00

    Although personally my next camera would probably be a step up to the 1D Mark II N...

    Can I ask something really dumb? What's a 1d?

    Actually bills aren't gone, just paid some extra money on the bills to make them less scary!

    Although there is nothing like owning a 1-series body, for the work that you do, I think the 5D would more logical. I really don't see you needing the AF spee of FPS of the 1D compared to what the 5D.

    Like you, I have been contemplating on upgrading my 20D to getting a 5D, but bills most certainly come first. Especially since I want to move soon and take a vacation.
