I was hoping this would be out by now, but midyear is OK. One feature I was hoping to see is inbuilt flash, not all that useful for the serious or Pro/ semi pro photographer, but something I've found to be very useful if you're wanting a little fill flash to soften shadows in a daylight portrait.

Phil with full frame the pentaprism takes up all the room at the top of the camera where the flash goes on the C-type sensor cameras.

The live view and better signal to noise makes it even better than the 'current' 5D.

Modded it would be the ultimate (until the next better model) DSLR for astro imaging!
