Here's the deal. I am wanting to purchase another camera with Live View for my macro shots. I have to wear reading glasses and can't really see good sharp focus through the viewfinder. I started out thinking about a 5dII but I really don't need that much camera. Also I have seen some macro shots on a full frame sensor that had a fairly noticeable vignette. Not sure if that was because of the sensor, lens, photographer, or what. I have pretty much leaned away from the 5DII. So then I looked at the 40D and 50D. Again the 50D is nice, but not sure I really need video. So we are back to the 40D and I had pretty much decided that was it until I started looking at the XSi. It has about the same MP as the 40D, actually a couple more and Live View for several hundred dollars less. I presently have 2 XT's and an XTi. I don't use all the bells and whistles on any of them and won't on a new camera either.
I am asking those of you that own one or the other or both to give me some input on which would be right for me. I know you can't tell me 100% but give me some thoughts. Economics is not an issue but I also don't blow money on things I don't need. Besides, I want an MPE-65.
Thanks in advance.
