I am debating on upgrading a body. Here's what I got:
1DMKII
5D classic w/grip

Thinking about selling the 5D to a friend and picking up a used 1DIII.
or, possibly dumping both bodies for a 1DIII. Or, stick with what I got?
I shoot mostly weddings and some portraits.

personally i like the 5d for weddings
don't like the 1d2 at all due to its user interface and weight

Stick with what you have. Would you shoot a wedding without a back-up body?

NO! I can borrow a 5DII or 7D from friends, but I prefer to have my own
gear.
