I'm about to invest in a new digital SLR camera system. After years of using Canon (EOS-1 & 620) I'm pitching (actually selling off) my film gear for all digital. I'm also planning on new lenses, upgrading what I have been using. I do have a 100mm macro that I love and plan to keep, but I'm sure Nikon has nice macro lenses also. What I'm looking at is a Canon 5D for color and B&W, and a Rebel XTi that I will have converted into a dedicated IR camera. I've never used Nikon gear, mostly because once I took the plunge into Canon years ago it's too hard to ever switch. Now I'm starting over and anything is game. I suppose if you have any other ideas I'm open to anything. I priced a $6K Canon system today for the two bodies and Canon 17-40mm/f4.0L, 24-105mm/f4L and 200mm/f2.8L. Most of my photography is B&W & IR landscape, some portrait and an only a very occasional wedding. Lets hear it.
