Dude... You have major gaps in focal length.
Next year, I'll pick up a 10-24. I have never found myself wanting for a 50-60mm equivalent, ever.
You know, having grown up shooting 50mm, I always think it's a necessary focal length. But it's really not. I think great portrait FL starts from 85mm and most landscape FL are at a much wider range.

I own the 70D and love the touch screen that swivels out and the forever battery life.TexAgsAnon said:
Comes down to what newer features you prefer and what your primary subjects are.
80D has that nice swivel screen, touchscreen, better dynamic range, 40% better battery life.
7DMKII has 50% faster FPS, higher extended ISO, and more AF points.
Oh man...tough decision there.TexAgsAnon said:

Someone local is interested in my 6D and it feels like someone is offering to buy my child. Changing systems is heart wrenching!
Wait.. if I was completely dumping DSLR....I'd be feel the same, I think.

Saw that, but I'm sure it will be $1500 or higher too. I can get a 7D2 or an 80D for South of $1k, not counting any price drops once the newest stuff comes out in the spring.
On your 70-200 and other lenses with a lens collar, use the black rapid on the lens collar, not the camera.dubi said:
Question for the photo professionals:
So i "wear" my camera on a Black Rapid camera strap . Is it correct that I should hook the strap to the tripod mount on the heavy lenses? Perhaps this is something Guitarsoup mentioned in one of our photography threads?
Comment:
Also, Santa brought me 2 x Arca-Swiss Compatible Fusion Plates as recommended many pages back. OMG, this product is awesome. I can hook my strap to it and it will also function as a tripod mount too. I needed to know this sooner! Thank you!

I bought an additional attachment to the body mount point in case the main one fails.
lol, that's the exact one I bought according to amazon.dubi said:Me too!flintdragon said:

I dropped my camera and 70-200 2.8 lens from about 6'. It was heart rending, but it all still works.

Don't buy a garbage bundle for $1200 when you can buy a barely touched, 2-4 week old "used" body for $800. Just my 2 cents. For instance, I saved $550 over MSRP by buying "used" on the kit below, when both are just 45 days old from first purchase.
Got my Fuji kit in today, and holy CRAP the 50-140 is a beast, and far heavier than I was thinking it would be. The build quality on both the lens and cam feels light years ahead of the 6D and 70-200 f4.
