would you rather have a 40D with an L lens of your choosing or a 1D X mkii with a 50mm 1.8 for the type of photography that you do?
It's weird to chose between these particular two options for me to be honest.
I said I'd love to have more pixels, the 40D is 10mp, the 1DmkII is still only 20mp. Not sure where you're getting at.It all has a lot to do with what kind of pictures you need or want to take actually,
I'm not sure what the "kind of photography I do" actually is that you have in mind -
I hardly do any digital stuff (apart from work, which I don't show on here) these days.you have to weigh up tech/cost/artistic requirements.
Yea, definitely.

Yeah, you’re absolutely right but when it comes to the quality of the actual photos, it really comes down to the meat vehicle behind the camera. Vivian Mayer, Henry Cartier Bresson and Garry Winnogrand didn’t have WiFi, 28mp and 4K but then they probably would have been shit at sports photography.
Look at it this way; would you rather have a 40D with an L lens of your choosing or a 1D X mkii with a 50mm 1.8 for the type of photography that you do?
It’s impossible to not turn into Ken Rockwell with this stuff but you have to weigh up tech/cost/artistic requirements.
