I posted in an
older thread, but will repeat here what I expect from the new cameras:
* 1080p video
* improved video SR (digital implementation)
* improved still frame SR (digital implementation)
* LCD in 16:9 aspect ratio
* Eye-Fi SD compatible
* improved LiveView responsiveness
* better noise performance at high ISO (by just less than one stop)
* face, smile and blink detection (works on your pets too!)
* slightly smaller and lighter form factor
* HDMI output
* focus dot overlay in viewfinder
And in the more advanced model:
* dual SD slots
* faster performance (image saving and responsiveness)
* improved AF with adjustable custom setting (fast priority versus accurate)
* slightly faster frame rate
The differentiating features will remain:
* improved viewfinder
* weather-sealing
* megapixel count
* dual dial ergonomics
* AF assist lamp
* larger buffer
* greater FPS
