Jumping To The Canon 5D Mark II

OK, so after a year or so of shooting with the Canon 50D, I have become increasingly frustrated with the limited sensitivity of the camera's sensor.  I HATE, HATE, HATE shooting anything or anyone with a flash and with my 50D, I was getting a large amount of noise at anything higher than 600 ISO.  Conclusion: the camera was great for daylight hours, but failed in the twilight and and evening time... the best time of day to shoot!!! 
The camera I needed was the full frame, High ISO, 21 megapixel 5D Mark II.  The bad news was that the camera body alone runs about $2,500... UGH! 

So, again, I went on a mission to sell everything I had of value, including my 50D and lenses, and purchased a 5D Mark II.  I immediately loved the new found freedom to shoot in low light situations and experience minimal noise at even 2400 ISO!  And hey, this camera even shoots broadcast quality Hi-Def video.  They shot the 2010 season finale of "House" with five 5D mark IIs! Neat!

Looking back, I should have started with this camera, but, it was good for me to learn why I needed it after having shot with a 50D for a bit.
