Eos 5d Specs
What do I have … Canon EOS 50D or 5D MK II?

Been years since I have had an SLR in my hands … and I am looking to buy a great camera. What I get, taking into account the price and comparison of technical specifications, etc …… I used to take pictures of landscapes, photographs of nature, animals, [Phase action shots etc] …. and macro shots.

What's to be used for? How much do you spend? Both are good cameras. The 50D is the top of the line of a cropped sensor digital SLR. The 5D has a lot of interesting new features like the ability of high-definition video, and has a full frame sensor. If you need the added features of the 5D is a great option. If you do not need a full frame camera with all the bells and whistles, stick with the 50D.
