Canon 50D vs Canon 50D Mark 2 - help?

are the differences between the two cameras really that major? the Mark 2 is so much more expensive, but is it really worth it?

Can you give me a link to the 50D Mark 2, I can't find it. I can find the 5D and the 5D Mark 2...

I'm pretty sure you mean 5D. What's an extra zero? Anyway, to your question. Here's a short, but sweet, article that may answer your question Canon EOS 5D Mark II review Cameralabs verdict: 5D Mark II vs 5D, 5D Mark II vs Nikon D700, 5D Mark II vs Sony A900. I've been thinking about picking up a 5D myself.

I have the 50D and LOVE it.I think the next level up is the 5D Mark II and there's big difference as the 5D is a full frame sensor camera meaning that it's sensor is the same size as a piece of film. All other cameras have a cropped sensor. It's essentially the equivalent of a film camera in the digital world. All of your Canon lenses would work on it or should but you loose the crop factor when you go to the full frame sensor. some folks see the crop factor as an advantage. Some see it as a disadvantage however not all of us can shell out the $$$ for the full frame sensor camera body. If you can swing it, I bet it'll give you outstanding results.
