One stupid question.... If money is not an issue, or someone want to give you a present of 1 camera body and 1 lense, which one will your dream system?
Can only name 1 camera + 1 lense.
So far the only confussion should be... want to take advantage of the price or not... example; get 1Ds mark III and sell it off later...
Ok... Provided you also cannot sell the system... So is for own usage; be it for shooting or as home decoration.
So which one?
