They being: <ul> <li> 14-bit A/D conversion for superior tone gradations <li> Digic-III processor for better noise suppression <li> Auto-optimization for better highlight control <li> Faster fps </ul> These, except of Digic-III I think are very useful additions to existing model. The 14-bit A/D DEFINITELY produces better images, period. Faster fps - it's great to have, if we're doing a bit of high-action photos. Frankly, I love to do auto bracketing and using a higher fps truly helps. Well, I think you’re discounting some features, expected in Mk.II.
