Even Ken Rockwell raves about it. EOS R & EOS 5 (analog) with a gaggle of primes & 3 zooms, OM-D E-M1 Mk II & Pen-F with 10 primes, 6 zooms, 3 Metabones adapters/speedboosters, and an accessory plague

I've had my 20D for three or so years now and would like to step up. I know the sensor size differences, but since the 5D has the the next generation sensor, I would like to hear an unbiased firsthand comparison in overall image quality. All the other bells & whistles are not too important to me. I'm all about image quality at this stage. Thanks i went from the 20d to the 5d. the IQ is better with the 5d and that's something you notice right off. iso handling is at least a stop better too. http://instagram.com/edraderphotography/

SuzyView Cream of the Crop  More info | Jun 22, 2008 15:10 | #4 I had the 5D, 20D combo for a year and upgraded to the 40D. The 5D is still the one I reach for and prefer. The colors and IQ from the 5D are amazing for the price, so good for what I do. But, if I had the money to upgrade again, I'd have to wait for the new model to come out. If it's any good, I'll be selling my 40D. Suzie - Still Speaking Canonese!

Concur in that I compared the 40D to the 5D before purchasing either... It was a landslide in favor of the 5D for what I shoot... Got the 5D and never thought twice about getting a 40D... 1D Mk IV, 5D Gripped, 30D

With all due respect, taking one picture of various cameras is hardly enough to race to judgement on... I've seen alot of reports to the contrary of Jason's study... No disrespect to Jason certainly though! 1D Mk IV, 5D Gripped, 30D
