How would you improve the 5D Mark II?

Lots of great suggestions, thanks. How do we forward them to the Canon execs? ;-)

 

Here's one more:

 

The current Live View implementation is excellent, but I'd like the image to be sharper and less grainy in low light.

<p>I'm with John Wright. Drop the 5D2 sensor in 7D with all its speed, advanced menu, built-in flash and improved controls (on-off switch). I owned two 7D's before getting the 5D2. I felt like I'd gone back to a retro-camera as far as controls, speed and menu. That said, when I need a Canon I reach for the 5D2 now. </p>

<p>Variable angle LCD and easily detachable strap <em>a la </em>Hasselblad V. That's it.</p>

<p>Sound of the shutter/mirror. This camera sounds worse than Olympus OM2SP.</p>

1. Improved dynamic range

2. Less noise / even better high iso performance (is not bad at all now)

3. Electronic horizon

 

And a nice bonus would be:

4. Build in trasmitter for wireless flash

5 moderate price like hthe 5d2 cost now er even a bit less would be nice.

<p>What John Wright said. :-)</p>

<p>I think the 5DmII was a vast improvenent over the 5dc but if Canon does not do something with the Focus system (make it at least comparable to the 7D which could also be improved upon with todays technology) and unless they expand the FEC beyond +/- 2 to say +/- 5 as well as expanding their EC to at least +/- 7, especially for mulitple exposures capturing HDR, then they will have surely missed the boat with the 5DmIII.</p>

<p>FEC=field effect controller? Surely you mean AEB: auto exposure bracketing?</p>

<p>Integrated cell phone.</p>

I'm fine with mine. Not looking for any improvements.

<p>FEC - Flash Exposure Compensation</p>

<p>Ah, I see yes. Many would like AEB to be expanded for more than 3 exposures for HDR work.</p>
