ROFL
I love the 1DS Mark II but could never have one - I borrowed one to see what the IQ and build etc was like and had real trouble in holding it for any length of time
It is so heavy (admittedly it didn't have the lightest lens on it, but it wasn't a huge lens - the 70 - 200 2.8 IS). I also held it with the 500mm lens attached and could hardly hold the thing, let alone take a picture with it
The 5D is the one I have in mind, however I want to see how they upgrade it.

If I was getting a new one it would have to be at least 12megapixels or over, Hasselblad cameras are 39meg, but I aint got the cash for one of those.

I'm quite happy with the 400D. I'm sure there'll be something else on the market when I do get round to 'upgrading'
