I really enjoy this camera. The AF is nice, very quick, per my intensive research before buying this camera, the AF has improved a lot better than the Mark I. The VF is awesome, large and very clear. I've tested the low light capabilites and it's amazing. Ergonomic is normal Canon's standard..outstanding except I don't really like the ON/OFF power button (just nit picky stuff).
I have just played a little bit with the video and it looks very nice, not sure when I have a chance to really use it seriously but for family videos I'm sure I'll use shortly.
I have to complain about the CF card door, the first 3 hours it's ok after that it creaks, it's not loud but sometimes it's annoying.
I have a little bit of hot pixels but none of them affecting my shots.
The resolution is outstanding, great for wildlife, landscape, portrait and requires details.
I highly recommended this camera for people that are serious into photography.
