Hi guys,

I am a Canon guy and have the D30 right now. I have a couple of L series lenses - namely the EF 24-70mm f2.8 and the EF 70-300 IS f4 in addition to non-L series EF lenses.

I want a full frame camera and was thinking of the 5D. The Mark II has an issue with shadows around bright images. There is not a huge price difference between the 2. the Mark II sells for around C$3K and the original one for around C$2.2K.

So - should I wait for them to work out the troubles with the Mark II or do you guys think that 21.9 megapixels is an overkill and get the original 5D. The reason I ask is because having 21.9 megapixel images with take much more hard drive space and I am not making billboards....
