FF Bodies not for everyone unless

A lot of the old masters, including lots of them in my country Indonesia, used sub par canvas, brush and paints for their masterpieces because back then some of the were so broke that they couldn't afford the best tools. On the other hand, i agree, rather than spend U$3500 to 6000 for a camera, a person can spend the money to:

1.  Enrolled in Dan Ballard photography trip workshop for the entire 2013, Bruce Percy's Scotland phototrip, Muench photo trips and have money left over.

2. Buy top notch lens
