Moved up to the 5D from a 300D, so this was really a big difference. I am most impressed by the very accurate AF even in low light. Picture quality is superb and I really have to get used to the fact, that there is something above ISO 200 :-) Even ISO 1600 looks still fantastic with a lot of detail.
One thing is strange, even though the 300D is plastic, somehow the ergonomics of the grip are better. Not the material, just the form/mold, at least for my hand. With battery grip it is better for sure and also adds some weight to balance heavy lenses.

My first L lens and I am more than impressed. Heavy and huge
(I might have to mount my flash on the cam all the time to have enough counterweight.).
