Ohhhh I see what you're saying. Specific to Rubin. Gotcha. It's a good point...not having to think about that as things are zipping around you would be a good thing.

well reports say the 5D2 is better from a noise and possibly IQ standpoint (also higher MP) but the 7 is better in terms of AF..

Aside from the fact I own a 5D, I also came into $1k of disposable income that I wasn't expecting. Hence any temptation at the moment is not a good thing.

Yeah, but the practical portion of me keeps telling myself "You've shot next to nothing in the past year. Why are you even thinking about photo gear?"
F*cking job is consuming my life. Meh. I'll shut up now.

well if you've shot nothing your 5 is pretty much new. I mean, compared to mine. Mine is shot to hell. I'm gonna post identical shots and you can see the difference for yourself. And, maybe you'll be able to tell whether I'm noticing this difference just because, mine is shot to hell.

but seriously it could be a question of the lens too, I've never shot a 200 2.8L on the 5d. I will, and see how it is.

^^ DAMN... 
just saw some of the most amazing sky lighting ever... a huge storm passed through the city, with tornado watch and the whole nine yards, leaving the most amazing afterglow. caught a rainbow, the clouds were crazy, it basically looked like an HDR shot, in real life. it was CRAZY! and I took most of the shots with the 5D just because I was more used to it. I tried the 7 first and was having some trouble.

I was looking out my window in awe as well. Unfortunately I was still chained to my office inside finishing work. I literally thought to myself "I freakin' hope Rubin is shooting this."
