Gotta admit, the crop mode feature is pretty cool.
1x @ 50megapixels
1.3x @ 30megapixels
1.6x @ 20megapixels
So this could be used for portrait/studio high mp photos as well as bird photography where you need the crop factor, or family events where you don't need 50mp, or...the list goes on and on

The camera looks very impressive.
GPS and WIFI could have been a good addition.
Are you getting one? :)

Still loving my 1dx...but seriously considering the 11-24 lens.

The specs look pretty impressive. I don't know if I'd ever use any of the crop factors. With 50MP, I can crop it myself in post. For the wedding or studio photographer, it looks very promissing. From the reviews, it seems it won't make a great low light camera with ISO at 6400?

I'm itch'n to upgrade my MKII but I think I'm gonna wait for the MKIV announcement as I'm getting into video stuff these days. :)
