Hey guys,

long time no visit to this side of the forum.

Miss you all.

Question: Should I upgrade from Canon 40D/Canon XSI now into a 5D II or wait till the 5D III comes out?

Wait and upgrade later. That is what I am doing. Although it won't be for a Canon.

10 years later... still no D3SS? :P

Do it now. God only knows how long it will be till a new camera is released. Canon won't release until a D800 is out because the 5d II > D700.

LOL! 10 years... It has been 4. Rumored Nikon announcement late this month. Expected D4/D400. As said many times, you cannot compare the 700 and 5DII. They are for different markets. I am not saying the 5DII isn't an awesome camera, because it is. Would I want one, sure! But would I use one for the horse racing that I shoot to pay my bills... No. My father and I are waiting for the D4. That will turn into our main for our sports timing/ photography "business".
