Ok here is the options i face and i am in need of some help. I currently have a 40D, lens wise i have the 70-200 f4L, 100-400L and sigma 10-20mm.I am about to purchase another body so the 40D will be a back up. I am looking at realistically 2 bodies the 7D and the 5D mkII. I have not used a full frame and i think the sigma is not compatible with the 5D? I shoot wildlife although not running its more stationary (squirrels, deer etc) and i shoot moto gp racing but would like to get into architecture and landscape work , i would also need to consider another lens with the 5D for this i was thinking of the 24-105L. In opinions from members here is the 7D capable of producing 5D quality landscape images? Or is the 5D capable of shooting the wildlife and Moto gp subjects? The 7D has obviously the better AF focusing but is it a step in the right direction for more landscape/architecture work? Basically it s the setup for the full range of work i want hence i am drawn a bit more to the 5D.

The 10-20mm is not compatible with full frame.

I'm huge FF advocate, so normally I'd say 5D is definitely the way to go, esp for landscape/architecture​. BUT, throw in the moto racing and the answer is less clearcut. Also you'll need another wide angle lens if you get the 5D. Tough call.
