This may be a question easy to answer but I still would like to get

the opinion of those photographers that may have first hand knowledge.

I'm a wedding/portrait photographer in business only a couple years,

the business is growing and I feel that maybe it's time to upgrade our

equipment. Our current equipment is 100% Canon with 2 30D's as

primary cameras. Lens aren't an issue I have always opted for good glass, now

what to do about a body? I would like to up-grade to Canon's pro line so I am

considering the 1D Mark III, from everything I have read I am sold on

this camera. However I have also read many good things about the 5D

and at nearly half the cost! The full frame of the 5D would be a nice

feature but I have managed working with the crop factor of my 30D

without too many problems, yes there have been times I wished I had full

frame on those wide shots, but I make do. Let's face it, the many

features of the 1D Mark III sound wonderfull even if I don't need the 10 fps

speed... but can I justify the cost?

This brings me to my question. Should I save a little money and go

with the 5D or blow the budget and purchase the 1D Mark III?

Thanks to all !

Thanks so much for your time and research! Yes I need to make the switch to RAW; I have known this but been resistant. Guess I just need to learn more about post processing RAW images and make the jump. Thanks again!

I accidentally shoot about 60 photos with my Canon 30d set on an undesirable

Picture Style. Is it possible to remove this unwanted style without a lot of

work? FYI: The Style was Twilight and I was shooting in .jpeg only mode.
