Yes, and I have had two 1Ds MK II bodies for many years. Then I got the 1Ds MK iII and will be buying another one of them. As much as I like the 1Ds MK II it is time to move on.

yes, yes, time to move on-let me help you with that.....will gladly take one off yours hands-no need to thank me

I just bought (and sold) a brand new 1Ds mk II plus a 100-400 lens and another "kit" lens for $3000. I probably should have kept the new body and sold my older 1Ds II. I made a quick $500 profit on the deal so I was happy. EDIT: I meant to say I bought it for $3000 and sold it for $3500.

Wow...you undersold that combo! A brand new 1Ds II would probably easily sell for $2600 alone, with another $1200 for the 100-400.

Mine is resting comfortably next to me at my desk. 85L attached, ready to go at a moments notice. And as someone earlier said just wish they could replace the LCD, add live view and micro adjust, I'll live with the battery.

Yeah, I was kind of slapping myself after I had half a dozen replies to my "for sale" ad in less than 5 minutes. Actually I sold the whole kit for $3500. $3k is what I paid, but it was still a hell of a bargain to the guy who bought it from me.
