This camera is one hell of a camera and I was not disappointed buying this. I have been making some extra cash doing photography for parties and similar types of things just lately and this has been my new best friend. It is reliable and takes very high quality pictures as well as having the ability to record HD, yes! HD!, video at resolution 1080p (which is a lot better than most cameras).
First I'd like to comment on the design, looking both professional as well as striking; this really gives off the impression that you are a professional photographer and it is a pleasure and a pride to take photos with it.
It takes pretty impressive photos too; I have always had excellent results with this camera. It has 21.1 megapixels, meaning that the photos are crystal clear and allowing you to digitally crop and enlarge photos beyond the point where ones taken with other cameras would be completely blurred with no damage to quality. It also has a variety of auto features which mean that, as long as you can hold a camera straight, anyone can take good photos with this camera.
One problem, the price. I am pretty sure that no-one other than an over spending tech junkie like me would even consider spending that much on a camera.

There is a lot more that is needed to be useful. You haven't even mentioned the fact it's a full-frame camera, one of its most important features! KEP

I have a lower model Canon but some 'nice' lenses. When I finally upgrade the camera body, this might be the one. Not sure I really want video recording on this kind of camera but I guess that's the way things will go. I gave the rating 'very helpful' for this review because I like the product, but I agree with mattydalton, for that kind of price, a more comprehensive review would be nice.

Advantages: High resolution, HD video, Live view, Excellent LCD screen and one of the lightest pro models. Disadvantages: Complex menu takes time to get used to. Softer than first 5D however Unsharp mask workflow can fix
