Peety - I like the way you think! Why own just one 5DMKII when you can own two.


I have a 5DMKII (actually one at work and one at home) and a 50D that usually serves as a backup. The nice thing about the 50D is the menus and controls are close enough to the 5D not to force a lot of re-learning.


When I shoot sports I usually use the 1DMKII with the telephoto and the 5DMKII with the wide angle. The change between controls and menus causes me a lot of grief.
