Turns out they couldn't get a 5d despite the computers saying they had them in stock. So I'll get my deposit back tomorrow.
I found myself in a catch 22.
I've had a 5d on my shopping list for nearly 2 years, and have been keeping an eye out, but not really been able to afford one. I have some funds available at the moment, and since they are now discontinued I thought I'd see if I can get one while I had the opportunity.
However I don't really have any decent lenses to use with either a 5d or 6d.
I could use it with my scope, but I still need a decent eq mount so that also becomes a roadblock.
I can't quite justify spending money on a full frame camera and a lens or an eq mount at the moment, and since the 6d will be available for a while there is no urgency in buying one.
I'll put the money in the bank and keep saving.
Thanks to all for the advice on the 6d, saved me from an expensive mistake!
