I've taken my eye off the ball recently, but knew a 5D mkII was around the corner. These specs look stunning.

Just need to wait for the rip-off UK pricing now.:rolleyes:

So what do you think $2700 body only translates to in the UK? I just spoke to my brother and he said the UK list is £2300! Unbelievable! I was thinking Sub 2k easy. It makes me mad.....Grrrrrrr.

Pricing makes sense to Canon given the new 50D is over a grand from the looks of it.

I couldn't see the point of the 1000D but now I see they will up the 450D spec in the next version and hence have another layer and more expensive models that were not before!

Spooky this as i only casally mentioned the 5d over in the 50d posting the other day...

That said, i can't help but think that it is loaded with some technology that is simply not going to be used by many of the target audience.

I was contemplating the 5d as a move over to full-frame DSLR (from my 30d).

The specs on this new 5d do look awesome i agree, but i'd never use the video capture. So i'd be paying an eye-watering £2-£3k for a combined DSLR/HD Camcorder.

For me this just confuses the issue over potential upgrades...:(
