Phil, you put a Digic III chipset on a 20D and I'll *guarantee* it'll smoke the 50D in terms of noise. Small pixels is just stupid from a design point of view and there comes a time when on chip noise reduction can *only* do so much. Why do you think the D3 kicked Mark III butt? The fact that AF works on the D3 was one aspect, but high ISO noise it smokes anything Canon has produced. The 5D Mark II has pretty good high ISO noise too, even more so if shooting at sRAW (11mp). Of course, why by the camera if you're only going to shoot at 11mp rofl.
I'd love Canon to produce a 12mp full frame with dual digit IV 1 series camera, high quality 920k 3.5" LCD screen, GPS, wireless built in, weather sealed pop up flash that can act as a master flash unit for others, 8fps (anything more is just overkill), ISO 50-25600. That'd be a *real* 1 series camera.
