Camera Change a challenge??

Hi all,

I am looking to change my camera to full frame, but I have a huge dilema.

I currently use a Canon EOS 50D which is good, but have decided I want to go full frame.

Now my choices are an EOS 1d mk2 N, a 1d mk3 (I know there is a slight crop of 1.3) or an EOS 5d mk2. The 5D mk2 is currently a little pricey still in comparison to the others, but would it be considered a better camera than a full blown Pro camera? The reason I ask this is there is a 1d mk3 on ebay being sold, the reason is to upgrade to the 5D mk2?

I know the 5D is Digic 4, but the 1d mk3 is dual digic 3. I don’t need massive lowlight capability, mainly wanting the camera for landscape/cityscape, wildlife, macro, flowers and still life with a little bit of sport (but very rarely).

If I have the 5d mk2, I’ll will need the battery grip also.

lenses will be 17 - 40 f4L, 24-105 f4L, 100 f2.8, Sigma 150-500 f5.6-6.5 (looking to change).

So just a few things to think about!!!

Please help
