Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II Digital Camera

I really debated long and hard about purchasing something this expensive. I'm not a professional photographer, but I do sell travel photographs on the side. My subjects are usually stationary - antiquities from Rome and Greece. I was most worried about buying this camera and discovering that it would be difficult to use, or too heavy too carry around with me to hot places. But this is one of the best investments I've ever made into my hobby. Although the screen is slightly small, I have no other complaints about the Canon EOS. I can blow up photos to a ridiculous size and still have perfectly clean, crisp images.

Highly recommended.
