Would prolonged use of video in the 5D2 degrade the sensor in anyway?

I know there's no moving parts used to capture the video, but I've heard of live view causing the sensor to warm up, and also hear about how noise is affected by the temperature of the sensor. So putting two and two together, I was just wondering if there would be any effect to the sensor long term from video.

I doubt it, in any case if such a design flaw existed we would be protected by the SOGA in the UK :)

My guess is no, but if you like taking video of the sun, then maybe. Reflected light can't have all that much heat to it.

Nah. This would not be a flaw, it would be a "feature.":)
