Yes, indeed. Congratulations!
Yes, indeed. Wonderful set of photographs all round.
Very good advice. Beyond that though, I say buy the 5D II. It is an excellent camera. I've had one for a year, and still gasp at the amazing photos it delivers.
It's always difficult deciding...
I'm sure she was - definitely a labor of love!

I love it! I hope your wife was suitably impressed! [:D]

Congratulations, Matt - your photograph was my personal favorite.
Excellent choices! I've cast my vote.[:)]
You're being too hard on yourself![:)] I think your photograph is both original and fabulous! I love the way you have used light.
I think you'll be happy with either choice (I own both). If it was me, I'd toss a coin. [:)]
I also do not use a monopod a lot (always preferring a tripod where possible), but the one lens I use mine most with is indeed the EF 100-400mm. It's very handy for steadying that lens in places...
I have the dual pan Arca-Swiss and a leveling Gitzo tripod - you could say that is angle-potential overkill, but I find the dual pan head very useful indeed. It's rock-solid too when locked. Possibly...

Couldn't agree more. Lovely stuff.

No - not obsolete. Not only are there certain types of shot that require one to get anything approaching decent results (long exposures, panoramas etc.), merely having and setting up a tripod causes...
As you yourself point out, getting the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS, will give you a wider aperture lens, always useful in terms of both low light and depth of field. I don't think you'll find the IQ of this...
I've had the 7D since last November. I love it. I use it just as much as my 5D II and see no real world difference in quality between images from the two cameras for the bulk of my photography. Only...
I think you raise an interesting point. I, myself, feel an initial reluctance after, having spent a lot of money on some camera or lens, to actually take it out into the real world where it gets...
Agreed![:)]
I don't know about the EF-S 15-85 f/3.5-5.6, but I use a 24-105 f/4 L on my 7D for mid-range shooting biased to the long side. The image quality is excellent.
That said, as Sheiky points out,...
I'm only going to be partially helpful here as I don't know the Benro tripod and cannot give you an opinion on it. What I can say is that I've had the Gitzo GT2530LVL (since replaced by the...
Go for instant gratification. I have both and even though I've had my 70-200mm f/2.8 IS for a couple of years, I still like to use the 70-200mm f/4 non-IS. Why? Because it is lighter and therefore...
