I have a crop camera. I was thinking of picking up a used old Canon full-frame just to do shallow-DOF stuff. I'm sure some have aged better than others... Any suggestions?

The 8 year old 1DsMKII Excellent IQ to iso 800 and quick AF and super continuous AF...built like a tank!

1DsMKII w/135f2 wide open iso 640
