Seriously, please, stop calling the 1DMKIII "the Mark III". It's wrong...you can't abbreviate like that, as it's (obviously) ambiguous. Pick something better, please. 1D MkIII, 24-105 f4L IS, 70-200 f2.8L IS, nifty fifty, 3xSpeedlite 580EX II, Rebel XTi w/ kit 18-55mm

(of cos 1DSmark3 instead of 5D would be even better bar the price issue)

If I still can't save though $ for a MKIII on my next engagement, I'll probably show up w/ my 5D and a borrowed 40D. Kevin

We shoot weddings with 1 5D and two 40D's. This allows us to get wide ends and long. Also both 40's were bought from best buy with there no question asked return policy for up to 2 years. So if something happens I get a new camera. In 2 years ill be done with the 40D and moved one. This set up works amazing and get wonderful results This sounds like the perfect combo IMHO.
