I REALLY need a new camera, what to buy?

My XT Rebel is busted, really beat up and I think the sensor is too because all my pics this year have had a really smudgy feel to them. It really has had me thrown off from shooting. I just want to hop into something new but I have no idea what to buy. Will the 5D MK2 be out sometime soon? If not what should I get guys?

Post up your pics from this past weekend Felix. I'm sure they are incredible. Good luck on your search for a new camera i'm sure your photography will go to the next level with an upgrade.

Buy my XT so I can hop into a 40D lol.

I think I'd go with a D80 actually but since you've already got a lot of $$$ into Canon gear that's probably not an option.

arg

you could have snagged by 20D a lil while back.

Def. canon pro body

the 5D mk2 is gonna be $3500 at the very least... and sold out for a while. Pick up a 5D if you can swing it. I love mine. It is truly magic. No frills, just awesome full frame high res. amazing ISO performance.




One word of warning... RAWs from a 5D will require a new computer

lol

I may be selling my Nikon D300 with a Nikon 18-70 lens, if you are interested.

Ara, I've heard great things about the D300, why are you selling it?

How much money are you willing to toss around for a new camera?
