Advice Needed Once Again ...this time on camera bodies

Yes, Raid, and at this time last year, the latest rumors stated that the 1DsIV was due out immediately, with the 5DIII following in early 2011. Take any 7DII rumors with a large grain of salt, say, asteroid-sized.

As all of the L Series lenses and 1 Series bodies come from Japan we can all understand their production problems.<o></o>

OK still using a 350D after 6 years may seem like I keep them too long (it still takes better pictures than me).

The resale value of a 2008 design just keeps going down, so why don&rsquo;t you keep the 7D and enjoy yourself.<o></o>
