Get the 5D, it has a much better spec generally including a faster image processor and can offer increased flash exposure sophistication when used with a 580EX. I might just add it should hold it's resale value for quite a while.

I'm about to buy my first digital camera. A used Eos 1Ds is about the same price as a new 5D. For the same $3500.00, which would you recommend/ Right now I'm a Nikon user (F5) with many lenses, which I will keep as I do like the film look for personal work, but for business it might be time to make the switch. I shoot a lot of editorial available light stuff for Colleges with Fuji 800 color neg., which looks great under any lighting conditions, so I would be looking for a digital camera that would perform well under those constraints, at least 800 speed, with minimal noise in the shadows.
