I'm really starting to think of the 5D2 as a light medium-format camera. When used with great lenses, the images remind me of my old medium-format film images, just way easier to manipulate. It'll do in a pinch for birds and action, that's just not its forte.

of course, the FF of the 5d maybe the mp too + the autofucus and speed from 7d. glorious.
