As I'm retiring from racing motorbikes I fancy doing more photography and I'll have a bit of spare cash to fund it.
My quandary is what level set up to go for. My thoughts are between an EOS 7d or a 5d but I'd like to know if anyone has made the step between these two to advise on their repsective pros and cons. I use a camera for part of my work, current workhorses are EOS 50d bodies; i use them in full manual mode so going to a lesser camera would annoy the feck out of me if it cant do what i want it to do. I know I will have to spend decent money on glass (I plan on buying a 300mm for motorsports stuff, a 50mm ish one for partraity snaps and a macro for some arty stuff) but there seems to be a bit of a price defference buying secondhand between the full and cropped frame bodies
