Yeah it's nothing new to me, but there's always room to grow. I shot these with my Canon 20D:

This camera is just going to help me take things a lot further. Here's a video shot with the camera to show the quality it's capable of: Canon Digital Learning Center - Sample EOS 5D Mark II Video: Reverie

It's been compared to $100k cinema cameras because its large sensor allows amazing low-light performance. Anyone who has used a regular video camera in low light knows how grainy it can get.

That is quite a camera. Not for the occasional user at that price, but awesome for those who will use it to its potential. I definitely see by your photos that you are a trained photographer. Nice work. Enjoy the camera. What type lenses do you have in your arsenal?

the 5d is an amazing body dude! i can't go that steep, but will be upgrading mine to the 7d next year. i know a few with the 5d and it's night and day over my 40d to say the least. congrats, and post up more pics once you get it dialed in!

you wouldnt happen to want to sell your old epuipment would you

Yes I would actually. I already sold my Canon 10-22mm lens but I still have my 20D and kit lens that I would like to sell. It is in amazing shape, no dents, dings, scuffs, scratches... And I have the original box, paperwork, software, cables, etc. Shoot me a PM if interested.
