Canon’s new EOS 5D. Any thoughts from those of you who shoot? Pros/cons?

What makes you think that only pros and cons want to give their opinion on the D5?

cons

I'd steal it.
I know the law. And I have spent my entire life in its flagrant disregard.

from what I've heard -

pro would be the full image scan from the chip (current version apparently uses only a portion of the chip).

con would be only 3fps motor drive setting.

our stills guy is getting two of them later this week so we'll see what he has to say after he fires off a few days of shooting.
