The 5D will still be a proven camera after the new one comes out. Why is it everyone thinks the OLD cameras suddenly decrease in quality when the new stuff comes out? A 20D still shoots as well as it did when it was first designed. NOTHING CHANGED.

Buy or wait. Only you can decide. My personal take on it is, if you have a 5D now, why bother unless you actually need two operational bodies and prefer the 5D? Buy it after the new one is introduced and you'll save some bucks.

Overall, have you really seen backwards movement in quality? Aside from AF issues since resolved, is the 1DMkII BETTER than the MkIII?
