The landscape photo is interesting. It only took about 30 minutes to download. I can't get the portrait to download.

[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=221923\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a] Hopefully zooming will not be disabled in video mode. I cannot find any reference to that; but the manufacturers seem to do that often. If zoom is not disabled in this 5D Mark II, RED may need not bother with their rumored convergence model offering.

[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=221925\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a] How on earth can zooming be disabled in a camera where zooming is accomplished my manually shifting the lens elements with a mechanical zoom ring (i.e. all current dSLRs)?

[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=221927\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a] Excellent point. Having video in a DSLR is so new to me that I am probably confusing it with P&S technology.

Can anyone find any availability statement?
Canon USA lists availability of the new lens as October, but I do not see the Mark II availability.
