5D is no way 5k+...i think should be 7k to 8k...

A used 5D nowadays hovers around 4k.

Brand new 50D is just aroun 38xx. Add a few hundred more to get a used 5D and you'll definitely enjoy every bit of it. biggrin.gif

I had to agree with Viking on 40D, no need to aim 50D as 40D is quite a good camera. Tried it before several times. 50D sales not doing as good as 40D and now still people are hunting for 40D because of it's price.
Indeed. I'm still keeping one 40D for wildlife shooting. The price over spec ratio makes me don't feel like selling it off to upgrade to 50D, though I feel like getting one 50D someday. For the price of RM3200 for a brand new set of 40D body with brand new vertical grip, what else can you get? biggrin.gif

well..if someone can supply me free camera n lens..i'l go without any hesitation...brand itself is nv a problem to me... tongue.gif
if not..i'll probably not changing...as im a lazy arse in selling my used stuff...
well...sony prices in singapore just increase quite a fair bit *dam*...i'll probably get it in msia.....  2470 cost 3099(400bucks increased) and 135 cost 2699(400~500buck increased) rclxub.gif
Woot? That would be like SGD 5798 (3099 + 2699) x 2.4 = RM13,915? You sure you want to splash so much cash for that two? I could easily get you 4 premium glasses with that amount of money biggrin.gif

anyway..if msia also gonna cost me that much..i probably wont get 135 first...can stil use my 50mm n 90mm to shoot...cant justify the usage of the $ if im just a casual shooter...unless im good enough to take up some job.. blush.gif

For that budget. You can get all the lenses below if you don't mind getting used.
- 17-40mm f4
- 24-70mm f2.8
- 70-200mm f2.8
- 135mm f2.0

Zoom out a little.

try to move away from ur subject to increase abit of ur DoF ??
Alternatively, don't use long focal length or try to use wider lens.

QUOTE(alpha_company @ May 13 2009, 12:17 AM)
what u mean is keep f2.8 but move away from the subject? can i use f2.8 for let's say wedding/2 person shots and get their both their face and body in focus?
Don't worry, f2.8 is not that shallow if you are shooting full body. smile.gif
