as people have been saying, the reps are really helpful, this is what i got from the rep in bullet form…

* a whitepaper update will probably be announced in th enext few weeks

* the firmware update will probably be in the first QUARTER of 2010

* rep: “i dont know if it will have the 60fps feature”

(i then pushed him further to elaborate on this)

* “my guess is that it probably will have all the video features of the 7d”

so its seems its looking good for the 60fps feature in the next firmware update dues in the first quarter of next year. i was a little worried when he said “i dont know if it will have the 60fps feature” but when i asked again, he did change his tone sounding more positive about this feature

Hopefully we can get a solid confirmation if it's coming or not. Still seems unclear if 720p/60p is coming to 5D mkii via upcoming firmware.

If they wait until June, a lot of people may hold out for the Mark III, if that is to be released... myself included.
