The full-frame is nice for work, but I still like using the 30D more because it doesn't have as many features to get in the way. For example, I can switch between front or back button focusing in four steps (30D) vs six (5D). One thing that drives me crazy on both is that in manual exposure, which I use a lot, the aperture control is on the back dial. I like f/stop rings on the lens, and if not there, at least on the front wheel, close to the lens, but Canon doesn't offer a custom function for this on these models. Boo!
