Not sure about you guys but I wish it was possible to have a built-in intervalometer!

I wish that the 1DX has constant illuminated af points when focussing. 

I like DSLRs and a Gear Whore.

Canon EOS 1Dx, EF 35mm f/1.4L USM, EF 50mm f/1.2L USM, EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM, EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM IS II, EF 200mm f/2.0L IS USM

Nikon:
Nikon D4, Nikon D800, Carl Zeiss Compact Prime CP.2 Super Speed 50mm T/1.5, Nikkor 14-24mm f/2.8G ED, Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8G ED, Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II, Nikkor 300mm f/2.8G ED VR II

Didn't they fix that with the last firmware update?  I'm still waiting for that fix for the 5D3.

They did but it's not constant. To better describe it, their firmware updated blinking illuminating af points. Not constant

I wish there is more Video FPS options on the EOS Rebel T3i, such as 24/5 FPS @ 720p or 30 FPS @ 720p.

Well, you can add almost all features of Magic Lantern to many canon models !

If you are interested in video, you can ggole "magic Lantern" for a quick look at what they offer (it is quite great).

Note that this is third party so I don't see canon officially supporting any of this (unfortunately, because this is what users call for).

 

For still, I'd like to have this in the 1D4 :

- adjustable auto ISO

- more slots in MyMenu

- Option for autoretract the 85II when switching camera off

- more flexible file naming option

 

For sure, the red AF points in AF and 5D3 should be Canon biggest concern for now.

What camera do you have? Magic Lantern exists and work with my 5D.

On 5DmkIII they should display "Locked" when Lock Switch is on and you try to adjust exposure compensation.

 

Currently the camera just displays "L" briefly I will probably remember this. But I had it happen during a shoot, didn't mean to even set Lock Switch on and of course I didn't have the manual handy.

 

It should be a simple change, yet helpful. There may be other conditions tied to the Lock Switch too. If so, this change should apply to those conditions also.
