Right now I'm thinking about selling both bodies and dropping the 5 grand on a 1D4. The thing is I'm not sure I want to give up the 5D2. It is such a beast when it comes to image quality. But the focus system really holds it back, plus I think the 5D3 is probably going to be announced later this year. If I sell it now I'll take less of a hit.

have you tryed out the 7D? i suspect that they will put the AF system from it into the new 5D, which is very fast and has a lot of different settings to play with (which i think the 1D has)
either way, if that system goes into the 5DIII i'll be looking at upgrading to it.
though i doubt it will get a faster mirror for faster FPS time will tell.
