I am getting a Canon body because I have 24x7 access to $10,000 in lenses... pretty much every L-series lens. Why would I get a 70-200 VR for $1700 when I could have the 70-200 2.8 IS, the 300 2.8 IS and the 400 2.8 for free?

I'm pretty much sold on the 1d mark 2, now to find one.

Well...now that's a different story when you say you have access to an EF 300 f/2.8 and EF400 f/2.8, I'd go with the Mark II...no question....and find the D300 a good home.

That was my train of thought as well

When the year is over and I no longer can use the gear, I'm sure there will be a different world - D400 (or

) and Canon 60d will probably be in the pipeline.

edit - after I wrote that, I realized that if you switch the position of the d's in both, they become the opposite vendor's cameras (400d and d60). They're running out of numbers!
