I was actually thinking of a used 1D3 which can be found around $2000. So the price difference would be about $500 I think. I think I agree with you though, get the 7D first and then eventually a 1D4 when it's cheaper. The main drawback to the 1D3 was the 10MP, so I think I may be happier with the 7D to hold me over until I need and can afford a 1D4. Not sure though, the 1D3 just keeps drawing me in. Faster, better IQ, fully weather-proof, integrated battery pack design, everything about it just screams professional. We'll see... the camera body purchase will not happen until I get several good lenses, so things will change by then.


Thanks,
