I probably won't do it... I use the 5DII 95% of the time. But it's tempting.

I have never tried a 5D2, so I can't predict what would happen. But I will say this: I have contemplated selling the 1D3 (and the 40D) and replacing them with two 7Ds and more glass. I could handle an all-7D fleet for a while. The two things that I'd miss most from the 1D3 would be the ability to map ISO onto the big wheel and the "safety" of not having an exposure knob to get bumped all over the map with the &gt;1 models. I can't believe how many times the knob on my 7D got spun to C3, and I continue to learn what things the Cx change and don't change back when you return to Av. Ugh.
