I have my trusty IIN up for sale, but I'm having sellers pre-selling remorse :rolleyes:, so rather than getting rid of it, it'll stay in the stable.

My assignments don't call for a "sport" body, and even if it did the 5DIII AF should be up to the task, right?

So why keep the IIN? Well...the AF is just rock solid and almost a can't miss! I also like the 1.3 crop, especially now with just full frames. Arrgh! I'm just venting/rambling. :D

Just because your camera has been made obsolete by new technology doesn't mean that it's not still a rock solid performer. Between your cameras, there's only one that I would trust in a rainstorm, being slammed into concrete, etc.

Exactly! The 8.5 FPS machine gun and the AF is a can't miss combination. It was a nice complement to the anemic Mk. II's shutter speed.
