On the 20D (and on my previous prosumer Minolta A2) where/if the highlights blown out, those parts of the image "blinked" so you could see on the image the areas of overexposure and make a decision to reduce the exposure on not depending on whether or not that part of the image was important.

Don't know if other camera offer this facility - its very useful
