the camera is bad ass if you know how to use it

Im upgrading because hte rebel has too much NOISE at high iso in low light conditions for my taste.
Your camera is only as good as your glass

The nikko shots were on a shitty 55-200 on manual focus becasue hte auto is broke, you can tell it was taken with a bad lens (or i can)
I just ordered a 70-200 f/4l adn its a huge difference

what setup (lenses filters etc ) do you haev now that you think isnt good enough?
