The 5 series is simply a FF sensor in an xxd body. The original 5d (a FF sensor in a 30d body) was $1,000 over priced when released and the 5d2 is at least $700 over priced today.
People buy \'em.
In digital, the 5 series combines second tier parts/features stacked on top of a great sensor in the 5d and a pretty-good/OK sensor in the 5d2.
Having used 5D, 1Ds3 and 5D2 extensively for real work in a wide range of conditions, I am curious why you think the 5D sensor is \'great\' while the 1Ds3/5D2 sensor is only \'pretty-good/OK\'. My experience is that the 1Ds3/5D2 sensor is waaay better than the 5D sensor. Perhaps you have been comparing 100% crops, in which case, please read this: http://cyberphotographer.com /megapixelmyth
