Oh...the 5D sells for about $2800. For the box. Lenses extra.

Can it use the old Cannon SLR lenses from the 1970s? I have a nice
set stashed away somewhere.

Wayne, I had an f1.2 50mm Canon lens purchased in 1969. Neither it nor
later lenses used on the AE1 or F-1 would work on the new Canon cameras.
That's why I went to Nikon, and sold or gave away the Canon stuff.
