<p>Your decision might hinge on the kind of photography you mainly plan to do.<br>
The 1D Mark II was the preferred body of professional sports and wildlife photographers several years ago because of its 8 fps rate, outstanding focus tracking for its time, 1/16000 sec. maximum shutter speed, and its reliability and ruggedness under tough conditions. I still love using mine because of its great responsiveness, handling, and customized programability.<br>
Having at least two batteries and a Canon NC-E2 charger included in the deal will be a plus, as will some assurance that the body hasn't been overused or abused.<br>
You have an opportunity to move up from a consumer body to a legendary pro camera, but the 1D Mark II might be more weight and complexity than some shooters want to deal with.</p>
