Ok, so I have finaly saved enough money to by my self a new camera. I have been doing a bunch of research and I'm in a bit of a dilemma here. Should go all out and go for the 5D, I like the idea of the full sensor. Or go with the 7D and put the extra money into lenses. The majority of the use for this camera is going to be deep water shipwreck documentation, both video and stills. Will the full sensor help to bring out more detail in these very dark situations, or is this more an aspect of a good lens. I was thinking of going with the Canon EF 16-35mm II f/2.8 USM Lens. If I go with the 5D it is the only lens I can afford at the moment.
I am a very new photographer so either camera is going to be able to grow with me for a long time. My main question is is the full sensor really going to make big gains in photo and video quality, which is most important to me.
