I hear that canon will be making announcements for some stuff in January or February, so should i wait to see if they are going to release the 5d mk iii by next summer and not waste 6k on the mk ii and lenses?

the price on the 5dii could drop significantly (for a used version) since everyone will want the 5diii

Hmmmm if you can wait..... wait. But I wouldnt be too sure about the 5D mk III yet. They had some sort of presentation about the new releases for 2012 in Hong Kong recently.... not a word about a 5D mk III.

Anyways, we all know the 5D Mk II is an awesome camera for its price. And it will definately be able to keep up for a few more years I think.

I would bet that Canon is going to have a new 'flagship' body by the 2012 summer olympics.

Gotcha.

I think I am going to postpone my upgrade and down grade for a while. Going to have to lower photography on my list of priorities with a baby on the way and all... I want a point and shoot that I can sit and blast at the little one with that way I won't have to carry around so much for the little things.
