For the money, a 1ds mark ii is a fantastic camera, weather sealed, fast autofocus, great IQ. 5dmkii will have better high ISO, more features like video and live view but it's not weather sealed. It all depends on what you shoot.

I would go with the 5D-2. If you want IQ, theres nothing like it.

I can only see 1 reason to buy the 5d over a 1dsmk2, high iso, for everything else the 1ds is a better camera.

The original 5D would be a great cost effective choice.
