The only thing a serious amateur could possible hope for is weather sealing and maybe more megapixel's (for some users, 12 is fine by me). Any other features would just be marketing hype and fluff. Smile Detection! Ansel Adams Mode! Woo hoo.

I think we've reached the point where DSLR's are just about featured out. At this point I hope manufacturers just perfect the functions they already have instead of adding more.
