Did you actually order the Canon mount? Was it their fault or yours?

I would agree with this. I would get the 1Ds2 if you need tracking. If you don't need good tracking then save your money and get a 5D2.

For my birding, even the 4.5fps the 1ds2 offers is plenty. The 5d2 is around 4fps, so you won't see much difference. No contest on tracking though. The 1ds2 AF system is about as good as the 1d3. The 5d2 is... uh... bad

It only makes sense if you really want to go FF, since they're about the same price. The 1d3 is more advanced in several ways, so it makes sense to stick with it unless you NEED FF.

If you consider its future value, however, the 1ds2 is a better pickup. The 1ds classic still goes for $900-$1000... the 1d classic goes for $350, and the 1d2/1d2n goes for $600/$800 respectively.
