I disagree with your price assessment of $4000, especially if it is a 5D II + 7D goodies. Despite all the extra features of the 7D, it\'s only $500 dearer than a 50D. In fact all you need from the 7D is the AF, the video firmware, the sealing and the new lcd screen and overlay lcd with the ability to change screens and you have a 3D for $3500 max IMO. Or just call it 5D IIn. Maybe they reserve 3D for something special or they never release such a thing. I don\'t care what they call it, but with those features the 5D II would sell out in hours.
More like only $400 more than the 50D was at intro.
And the faster mirror box to hit at last 6.3fps.... but it seems it could reasonably be done for $3400 to me.
I wonder if they can make a smart vf with interchangeable screens. If not, I hope they ditch it for the 5D3/3D.
The one advantage, I guess, of 5D2+7D over 3D is that the 7D would give you a lot more reach for widlife than a 3D.
