Uh-oh, Canon raises the bar again.

Why was Canon able to do continuous video up to the memory card limit,
while Nikon is limited by sensor over-heating?

The improved weather sealing is a big plus over the original 5D.

it has nothing to do with sensor overheating and everything to do with
tariffs on 'video cameras.' canon apparently doesn't mind paying the
tax or managed to circumvent it somehow.

Canon doesn't pay the tariffs, it'll will be tacked onto the emd-price.

It all plays into pricing strategy nonetheless.

How widely does that tariff reach? I thought it was limited to the UK.

This post is off-topic for this newsgroup, rec.photo.equipment.35mm,
which is concerned with film cameras that use 35mm film, not digital
cameras that look like 35mm SLRs (DSLRs).

Since this post concerns such cameras, the appropriate place for it is
rec.photo.digital.slr. Please post there in the future.
