I have a wonderful 7D and a 5D II. Love both, but I am intrigued with the 1D3. Cannot afford two asp_c cameras. Should i sell my 7d(3000 miles) to buy a 1d3(100,000 miles)?

I think you could probably search "7D vs 1DIII 1D3" and if the internet didn't spontaneously implode, you'd get a whole plethora of opinions on this very subject, some rather detailed. ;)

Not something I'd do unless you shoot in very ugly weather regularly.

Thank you, I did a lot of reading on this, and I also spoke with owners of 1DIII ad 1DIV, their main concern was the noise. I then took my 7D (read the manual) and set the proper method and went out, I found that the 7D is a super camera, so, I am going to forget about the 1DIII and stick to the 7D. Here are some samples of what I did today:

Isn't the 1D3 APS-H? big different if you like wide, but since you have a FF already seems like no need.

I've loved shooting with the 7D the times I got to borrow one. Cant wait until the 7D2 comes out!
