Finally…
After three long years, Canon finally updated their beloved 5D with their new 5D MarkII, or from Canon Website. The specs on this beast is more than what I expected or want. The main features that I really want from this camera are higher ISO and weather sealed. I’m very excited about the new 5D MKII but somehow felt a bit let down. Why canon, do you give me all this power but won’t let me take it into the rain? Oh well, I guess you can’t have everything you want. But like I said, I’m very excited about the upgrade and probably try to get it for x-mas. Anyone want to contribute to my x-mas fund this year? you’ll get a complimentary portrait session, shot w/ the new camera =)

wait a minute, did I read that right? OK… I’m all in.

WOW!! Amazing…this thing is soooo sick, I want it too. It’s gonna be at least 3 grand for it.

Thanks a lot Jason for all the advice. I didn’t know about the STE2 Transmitter not being able to control manual activity on the strobes…I’m sad to hear that because I just purchased one yesterday!!! Dah well…I’m looking into another flash head too…and from all your advice I’m either gonna go with the 580 or 580 EX II…I like your point about the 580 being very easy to switch from master and slave. I’ll have to see how much money I’ll have next month to get another flash head.
Once again thank you for the advice!! Hope all is well!
