Hey, How good a deal is it? If it's really a good deal GRAB IT! The EOS 1V is a much better performing body for sports and action images. If all you do is shoot in a studio or people keep your EOS 3, the EOS 1V won't help you get any more images than you are now. Of course if it's REALLY a good price...
