Two hours later, and I got my shipping confirmation, so guess I got lucky (well, my bank account might not agree). Sharon

Charged the battery at work (took some lenses in) but didn't get to even look through the VF. Spotted a 5Dmk1 owner on my way out and showed it to him (in a rush). He took the first photo!

It was all the beautiful photos here that sealed my fate. Damn. I ordered stuff way early this morning and nothing's been processed yet. flickr

I am so happy with it already and I already know it's going to be much more enjoyable to lug this around with my 7 month old than the 1d. Now I just need to decide if I'm going to keep the 1d mkII or sell it. Rebecca

It arrived - 2 days early!!!!  Both outdoors - ISO 100   And yes, I know it looks like I over saturated the parrot (LR2) - but I didn't, actually toned it down a tad. These were taken with the camera on "standard" pic settings. Sharon
