I've been asleep on this thread up until now but - the Canon 20Da 
allows the user to lock up the mirror, open the shutter and view a 
live image on the LCD monitor and/or a TV monitor connected to the 
camera's video out terminal.  Canon does charge a bit more for this 
body though compared to the normal 20D.
