scott_ferris Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 <p>If you are happy with secondhand gear then it is still a good choice. The bigger sensor will always work to your advantage, the major downer for the 1D series cameras though is the complete lack of Canon wide angles. I buy used 1 series and have been very happy with them.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_felber1 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 <p>I would look on ebay and get a used Canon 1d mark III. The results with this camera are far better than when I was gettting with the Canon 40D. You can get a used one for around $2,300 right now. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kin_lau Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 <p>I'm using the 7D + 400/5.6L for birding. I've only had the combo for about 2 weeks, but it's very good. My 1Dm2 is still faster, but for the weight savings, the 7D will be welcome.<br> With the 7D, I would not hesitate to shoot at iso3200. The Pileated in this link, was shot at iso3200. <a href="http://outdoorontario.net/Gallery/Yard-birds">http://outdoorontario.net/Gallery/Yard-birds</a></p> <p> </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
