Finally our prayers have been answered. Canon announced a firmware update that will allow 5D Mark 2 users to manually control the exposure of the camera while shooting HD video.
From DPReview: “LONDON, UK, 27th May 2009: Canon announced today it will release a firmware update for the EOS 5D Mark II allowing users to manually control exposure when shooting video. The new firmware will be available for download from 2 June 2009 on Canon Europe’s support web site.
Following the launch of the EOS 5D Mark II in September 2008, Canon’s Research and Development team has listened closely to customer feedback to develop additions to the camera’s movie recording functionality.
Allowing EOS 5D Mark II owners to achieve even more stunning video results with the camera, the firmware update will include the following manual controls when shooting video:

ISO speed: Auto, 100 – 6400 and H1
Shutter speed: 1/30th – 1/4000th second”
