Canon 5D Mark II body only Refurbished £1,252.94 (Canon UK eBay outlet) £1,252.94
Refurbished 5D Mark II from the official canon eBay store, amazing deal considering its £500 more expensive new! From experince I've bought a canon refurbished camera and it was basicly new, they get tested more than new cameras coming off the production line! That's just my experience though, so still buy with caution. Amazing price, I've already got mine ordered!

£290 saving a modest discount? I duno, I could buy a 50mm 1.4 to go with it given the savings I'd make :)

Personally, I'd keep it. Apart from the attraction of full frame sensor, I don't think 5D gets any more points over the 7D in terms of features. 7D has faster AF, burst mode, AF points. I am in fact looking for a 7D body, will keep an eye on the outlet.
Did you get yours with the kit lens btw?
7D autofocus is quicker and more accurate in better light.
Depends what you want, but everything gets expensive when you want low light performance, camera and glass.
Just a suggestion as you're looking for a lens, you really can't to far wrong with the 24-105. Fantastic 'walk about' lens which will suit most situtations you'll find yourself in. (This ebay outlet is always worth checking as the stock changes all the time)

I bought the body only as i wanted a different lens for use with music video work. I am looking for a deal on a Tamron 17-50mm VC. I know the non VC is supposed to be sharper, but i will be using it handheld sometimes so the VC would help and i will not be using it for photography.
Pretty much agreed with me then ;o)

Yes 8) just i nipped for a drink between my typing so didn't see your post till afterwards lol
If you have the money to spare, go for a 5D Mk3, 6fps and 61point AF (41 cross types). The only disadvantage with full frame is it shows any weakness with your lens. Lenses are generally sharper in the middle, and less so near the corners.

Ah I'd love a 5D mark iii, it's a great camera! But I'm afraid its out of my budget range at the moment. Maybe one day though...
The focus system on it is brilliant, I had a play with one (and a prototype 1DX which was also impressive) and it just worked so flawlessly.
