I just want to bestraight forward with you, your post is too long, I didn't have time to read all of it.


So here what I would do if I were you. I'd keep the 7D, the 70-200 f/2.8L IS, and the two flashes. I'd sell everything else and get the 5D mark II and the 24-70 f/2.8L (you might have to put some more money in). That should cover your basis for serious wedding photography. When you make enough money that's when you can start looking for specialty lenses.


5D II + 24-70 f/2.8L + 430EX


7D + 70-200 f/2.8L + 430EX + flash bracket (without the bracket you'll definitely get redeyes)
