weather sealing of cameras and lenses cost money, hence higher price of "L" lenses and 1D professional camera bodies. what is left is jellybean non "L", ef-s lenses, and non-pro camera bodies which is the reason for lower prices. i have seen many of my friends' ef-s lenses and i wouldn't dare taking them to dusty environment, if they were mine.

In that case, do you think it is best to wait a bit longer and get a 5D III and L lenses, (currently hugely over budget), or look into L lenses that have acceptable focal lengths when used on a crop sensor?

Since the 7D II is sealed, I am surprised Canon don't make any sealed APS-C glass for it.
