Thomas,


I do the exact same thing as you...shoot pics of kids(mine(18 months) and other kids as well). started with the 30D, moved up to the 5D, and now the 5Dll. Over all the jump to the 5D was the most noticeable as far as image quality(WOW, I really took that), and depth of field. I post pictures of my little man on my smugmug site every month(greggf.smugmug.com), and have been very happy with the 5D. IF you time photos just right, or just take alot, you're going to get the picture. That's the great thing about digital....The mark ll is another story, but I think if I were you, get the original 5D, use your existing lenses(by the way, I have the 28-70,70-200 f4IS, and a 100f2, and I love them!!!), and you will not be disappointed with your purchase. IMO you'll love what full frame does with your lenses....good luck
