Hey guys,
My dad has a pretty good collection of L lenses, but never has any time to play with them. We've decided to sell most of them and keep the 85mm 1.2 and one camera body to use. My question is which body to keep? 5d mk2 or 1ds mk3? both are full frame, 21mp and so on. the fact that the 5d mk2 can shoot video is definitely a plus, which is why i'm leaning towards it. i'd appreciate it if one of you photography gurus can give me an explanation of why one is better than the other. thanks!
all 6 will be up for sale soon, just trying to figure out a price first. (there is also a 24-70 but i think we're going to keep that one as well)  | |

Looking to get a fisheye lens... Don't really have a price point on how much I want to spend. What would you guys recommend? I use a Nikon D90.

Tokina AF 11-16mm f/2.8 DX or DX II?
Using it on a Nikon D300s.
Haven't researched into it too much yet, but the only major difference in the DXII is that they added a a/f motor built in.....and reports of better coating on the glass reducing glare. Is it really worth the extra price considering a/f isn't necessary in the D300s?

i'm looking at a Canon 500mm f/4 IS lens on eBay. i'm thinking of getting it shipped straight to Canon for a tuneup, is this possible?
let's say the seller has no problem doing this, will there be problems on Canon's end knowing who the actual owner is, etc? i'm trying to avoid any foreseeable red tape.

The VRI really wasn't optimized for full frame. If you have an APS-C body, then the differences are not very noticeable.

Maybe a prime like a 30mm f1.4 or 50mm f1.4, and depending on your budget, maybe even the 70-200mm f4VR?

Thanks, I'll check those out.
I was debating on getting a 50mm prime. My friend said that if I started off with a prime that I would learn more than with a zoomie. Nikon Macro tube extender (manual)
Is that macro tube worth purchasing?

i would go with a 24mm or 35mm fast prime. shooting with prime lenses make you really think about the composition of your picture.
