Is 5d overkill for me?

This is hard...
I have been pondering and pondering to get a backup/replacement to my broken 5DIII.
Things got complicated when I saw the sample photos taken with a 5DIV today.
That's what I want!


I was perfectly happy with the 5DIII until I saw the sample photos.
5DIV will sell at 3500, 5DS I can find at 2500 and a 5DsR at 2800.
A second-hand 5D III I will go and see tomorrow, 1900 dollars.

What if I'd get a 80D and pay what it takes to get the drowned 5DIII back to life?


No, I like the 5DIII and if the offer tomorrow is OK, I go for it.
