Got the chance yesterday to play with the Mark II. Love it, love it, love it. This thing is the new dream machine. Also the new software that comes packaged with it is awesome.
The software is like real software and not some afterthought they packaged just to say they gave you software. Excellent RAW file processing.
The camera! Where do I start. The new E-TTL 2 is so spot on. Used it with a 550EX. The grain structure that has been rumored is not a rumor. ISO 1600 looks like 400. Skin color, which was a weakness of old 1D, is beautiful; not too red anymore.
For me E-TTL 2, grain structure, skin color and software make it a very good value at $4,500.00. Can't justify it yet, but I am looking for reasons.
