pretty damn impressive...I am awaiting reviews on noise at extreme ISOs to see if they can match Nikon

Video = useless. Get a video camera or a p&s.

I like the 21.1mp, and only $2700 Hmmm.... I should start saving now...

the price is still decent from a professional standpoint.....considering 1D Mark II sells for a lot lot more. regarding the vdo...whether its good or not, we will find out soon. remember its the not that sleazy small sensor in yoru p&s...dslr sensors should be able to do a much better job with vdo..just as they do with pics.

i wont buy it cuz i dont need all that high ISO and resolution.

I wouldn't say that. Let me put it this way, Dennis; Say someone pulls up beside you at a redlight in a Corolla with his supermodel girlfriend dancing around with her head sticking out of the sunroof and you're in a Mercedes without a sunroof. Get the analogy?

LOL
yeah I get it.. :P
My point though is that people who're buying a camera of that caliber aren't going to buy it because it can do video. They buy it because it has 21 MP, or because it's quiet shutter, FF sensor. I bought my Mercedes because it goes 0-60 in 4.2 seconds, and the heated/cooled leather, not because I wanted a sunroof (plus, my supermodel girlfriend has her head in my lap). LOL
