I'm getting the itch as I really think the upgrade to FF would benefit my shooting (namely shallower dof for people shots and better high ISO performance for low light).
tbh this thread is mostly just a carrot dangling exercise as I can't really afford it - could almost afford a 5D II if I flogged my 40D and efs lenses, but would kind of like to have that as a second body anyway, and of course would then be left sans std zoom and wide angle.
I'd be interested to hear the experiences of those who have upgraded to full frame, (40D > 5D II especially, but all input gratefully received). Did you find the IQ that much better? dof so much nicer? In terms of noise, what ISO speed would you suggest is similar to the 40D at ISO 1600?
Half of me thinks I'm just being a materialistic tart as I rarely make money from my gear and it's only earned me about 20% of my initial outlay back through jobs on the side..
Still need a 5D II though :bang:
