I've been tossing the idea of upgrading to this body? I'm looking for more frames / second & better ISO. I tend to do wildlife & landscapes. Thoughts?

If when I bought my 50D the 7D was still a rumour but it had been rumoured before and nothing came of it. I think if I had the chance I would get one but for me know it just is not going to happen. Its OK though gave me enough cash to grab another lens. I have played with one and I think it would be well worth it. I could sell my two bodies and get one but now I am used to having two bodies and find I am using my primes more so not going bother, happy with both my bodies but dang I would like to own a 7D.

If for the most part you're shooting wildlife, I think the 7D is a great upgrade. If going for landscapes, it might be a good idea to save on for a 5D mkII. But both are superb camera's so there really anything that can go wrong here. :)

That would be my call too:)

350 pic's of nothing heh heh. I really like the ISO quality. Finally stuck my 100-300 on, kind of a pointless test in the house. It's -14* C today. What a change from 8* C last week. Can't wait for the weekend, going to a wedding reception/dance. Gonna try that 8 frame / sec burst out on the bouquet toss & garter catch hopefully.
