Hey all,
I shoot fashion photography and portraits with my Nikon d200 and Tokina 50-135mm 2.8, but I'm thinking whether the 5d would be better for the job? I would pair it with the 100mm f2 and also get one of the Canon speedlights.
I know Nikon is faster and the build quality is better as well with all the manual levers and knobs in place, and their flash system gets praised all the time, but I've compared the images from the two cameras and at 100% Canon is just more pleasing, especially for portaits where I want superb skin tonality and background blur.
Would you say it's a good idea or is the 5d solely a landscape machine?
Thank you
