@Eric Lee - Thanks! I believe they have. Finally. @kevin mullins photography - After handling it and playing with it, granted not as long as to really formulate the best opinion, but it looks like the start of something really exciting again.

This new body looks very impresive. I’m looking forward to getting my hands on mine as soon as its out. Let’s hope it lives up to the hype. Well done Canon!

Rich,

Nice write up. Canon seems to have hit a home run with the 5D MkII.
