if you want just one lens, then get the Canon EFS 17-55mm 2.8 IS lens. It is as sharp as any L lens according to Canon. Also the Tokina 11-16mm 2.8 is nice as well.

Jon,

I have not used the 5D that much, but when I was playing around with it, it felt clunky in the way that you got the video to start recording.

I try to shut off the camera when ever possible now. It helps that the camera starts up so quickly, unlike the EX1 that I usually shoot with.
