The ONLY true upgrade is the 21MP sensor which Canon themselves claim offers the best image quality available in ANY Canon DSLR, including the 1DsIII. .


Yes, Canon claims that. We shall see.

The only tempting thing for me is the higher ISO performance, but if it gets this via software & thus looses sharpness, like the Nikon D300 & D3, then big yawn again.

No articulating LCD.

No mention of adjustment for back-focusing lenses.

No MLU button.

Serious video recording will require a laptop, for data storage, so I see that feature mostly for mom & pop quickies ( \"hi kids!\") and photojournalists.

Feh.

I think I\'ll probably put my money into ZE lenses instead. A Distagon 21mm on my current 5D would be sweeeet.
