Lenses / Re: 50D->5D3 upgrade, what to do with my lenses?!
« on: December 03, 2012, 07:51:52 PM »
Thx for the info everyone! It's good to know that my trusty zooms will keep my a happy camper for a while to come. Although I'm very curious to see how the 24-70 f4 performs. I can't wait to get my 5D3, I expect quite the jump in quality.
My next lens after my 5D3 upgrade will have to be a fast and sharp prime though, so many options! The 50 1.2 seems like a mighty allrounder, but if I'm not mistaking, not particularly sharp. I just feel a bit conflicted buying the 50 1.4, as it's a lens from like 1992 (I believe the optical formula even dates back to the early FL's) but there's probably no reason to get the 1.2 if 1.4 will be enough. My dream would be the 85 1.2 II, but it will probably have to wait, considering it's cost

Lenses / 50D->5D3 upgrade, what to do with my lenses?!
« on: December 03, 2012, 04:27:34 PM »
Hey everyone, this is my first post so you'll have to forgive me if it overlaps with a previous topic!
I currently still use my trusty 50D, it has served me quite well but I'm slowly bumping into more of it's restrictions. I'm not completely decided if I want a 6D or a 5D3 but probably 5D3.
Anyway, I've been aiming at a full frame body since I started photography so both my lenses are L's, the 24-70 2.8 and the 70-200 2.8 IS v1. I bought both these lenses second hand and I'm not completely sure if I aquired sharp copies or not, hard to judge if you've never used other copies.
My question is, will these lenses still be able to obtain the maximum from a 5D3?
