Oh dear! This one's gonna be all over the place, so bear with me.
5D, 135/2L on the day that I got the lens (after lusting after it for a couple of years!). Nothing special about the photo, except that it was shot at ISO 1600 and blew me away with almost no noise (after owning a 10D for the past few years)

5D, 70-200/2.8L (non IS) plus 1.4x Extender II:

5D, 100-400L IS at 400mm (to demonstrate how the lens performs for a discussion in another thread):

And finally, a ship heading right into a thunderstorm - 5D, 70-200/2.8L. Not my best lightning photo, but the only one (so far) with my 5D!

But I know some others are thinking the same thing. Most of these could have been taken with any $1000 digital slr. My 2 cents.
Well any photo can be TAKEN with a less expensive camera. The difference that I'm sure you already appreciate as an owner of FF high MP cameras is detail and image quality (particularly the subtle changes in shadow detail vs. lower MP cams). I just printed a 16x20 shot that is stunning compared to my prior experience with a D2H and 20D. Can't wait for my first 30x40.
Glad I found this thread. Was beginning to think I was the only one who actually likes this camera. Spectacular shots everyone. (shot with 5D, 300mm f/4 IS with 1.4TC)
