    The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being.

    I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure.

Hi all,

It's been a while, but I was hoping for some advice.

Canon India have contacted me an offered me a fantastic price on a new 1DX II.... I am currently on a 5D III and very happy with it, no complaints. I shoot it with a grip most of the time and with a 500L on it. The 1DX II is a big investment despite the significant discount, so what do you guys think? Jump on a great deal? Here are a few considerations:
- It won't break the bank especially as I would sell my 5DIII
- I shoot a lot of wildlife with my Gripped 5DIII + 500L, so weight won't matter
- I also travel a lot, and think I would miss the removable grip.

Help ease my conscience please!

Best,

J
