Damn, you got ripped off. Where did you buy it from? You can't just return it?

london drugs was 2999+tx.. I lost the receipt so I thought I would try rs before trying to see if they would accept a return w/o a receipt.

honestly I don't care anymore.. I'll use this for a bit. It just feels slow compared to something like a 7D

two totally different cameras for two separate uses.. if you need speed for sports, then stick with the 7D or 1D

^^ I'm sure they have your receipt on the computer considering it was a $3,000 purchase. Why would you wanna lose $400 just like that? And yeah, 5D has lower FPS but it's FF and the noise levels are way lower than 7D.

I was aiming for a 1Ds, the 5D was a compromise on speed and af since I wanted the full frame. noise levels are not that much better than my old 20d.. but then again I've hardly used it

yeah I'll go try it out again.. I've only done 1 or 2 shots at 6400 and I was not impressed. and the 1Ds 3 was much cleaner at 3200 vs 3200

If you want really clean shots, go with Nikon D3s. Beats Canon 1D MKIV.
