Re: 5D2 vs 5D3 vs 7D for detail/reach/noise:


Haven\'t done your tests. I own 5D2, 5D3, 7D, and 1D4.

Mainly do macro but always zoos where the 7D is invaluable for \"reach.\"

Also portraits (4 adult daughters and their retinues) and travel (100+ countries).

IQ of 5D3 in my subjective opinion is decidedly superior to the other three.

AF of 5D3, of course, is way better than the others. I will keep the 7D

because resale value is low and the 7D has above specialized usefulness.


For me the big question is: should I sell the 1D4. The 5D3 replaces

in my opinion both 5D2 and 1D4. For action 1D4 is superfluous now.

The approximate sale value of $4000 for 1D4 is tempting to help

finance purchase of 1DX, which has gotten rave reviews implying the 1DX

is dramatically superior in AF and otherwise to the 5D3.
