For the effect I agree wholeheartedly, but for AF-issues I have to disagree with you.


This issue I mean:

I also love taking pictures on the street where people are just going about their business, would this be an issue for the 5D2?

The shallow DOF doesn't make it easier in these shots. That's what I meant. The 7D would probably be easier to use during these shots. I'm not saying it couldn't be done with a 5D []


Hope you get my point and maybe you could prove me wrong, but this is what I think for this particular situation.
