only you know what your bank account can handle.

But if you have the money for something like that, why not look at a Leica again and keep the 5DmkIII when it comes back or just go Leica, I know you like them
well, to answer your question... if Badger doesn't kick me in the nuts, I'm sure she will.

The Leica M9 is nice... but I've invested enough into Canon glass, and if I want to do some freelance work, a dSLR is the way to go. If I ever make a crapload of money, a Leica will be in my future. But, right now I feel like that's money not well spent (even moreso than this latest toy).

In regards to the 5D3, Canon got back to me telling me they want to keep my camera to take it apart and run tests (god only knows what the hell they found). Anyways, they offered me a full refund and I took it.

Right now the beast is sitting in its box on my table, and I'm staring at it...
