Hi Dan,
Canon's intentions for the 5 are unclear at the moment. My understanding is
that, at least in the U.S., the equivalent A2e has been discontinued with the
arrival of the 7/30, but the A2 has not. Perhaps they figure that folks wanting
ECF will go for the 3 or the 30, but those wanting the spot metering and a PC
socket will take the A2 and not care about ECF. There seems to be no indication
that there will be a successor model anytime soon--the 7/30 appears to be the
closest to a successor that we'll see for some time.

PS: I have not yet had any offers for the 5 QD w/VG-10 that I'd like to sell.
