You can always pick up a used 5D mk I. I have one and it still takes amazing photos.

Here's what I told someone else.

If you're looking to do it yourself, I recommend claying the paint first. You may or may not have a lot of paint defects, but giving it a light polish is always a good idea. I used the following as my polish.

http://www.autogeek.net/blackfire-sr...ng-polish.html

I found that the polish was good enough to minimize some deeper scratches when pair with a dual action polisher. You probably won't be able to do much polishing by hand though, but it probably won't hurt either.

For sealant, I used this, which I was able to apply by hand.

http://www.autogeek.net/blackfire-we...d-sealant.html

Give it overnight to cure, and you can add on a second coat. After the second coat cured, I added some carnauba wax, but that's not really necessary. The sealant should protect for a few months on its own.

SRT headerback installed. I think I'm done for now until wheels and tires next spring.
