However the 50D has pushed the limit - I think a higher MP count would only lead to extreme noise removal and a dramatic loss of sharpness and detail in shots - makeing the camera only any good for a studio with L grade lenses.Video (or liveview recording <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" />) I think will be a standard now so I expect that to appear - and with the recent nikon releases canon might be willing to change their boundaries for camera features-  putting more in the mid and lower range cameras to keep that market for them strong with the challenge from nikon</blockquote>
