Canon Rumors

New DSLR on Tuesday, October 18, 2011. [CR3]

Which one?
I am 99% positive we’re going to see a new DSLR next Tuesday, all the clues are pointing that way and I’m willing to give it a [CR3] rating.

What camera? No [CR] rating on this yet.
Everything is pointing to a new 1D series camera, I am getting zero information from sources or from anywhere else on the web about any other camera. We started hearing 6 months ago that the next EOS camera would be a new 1D and the bits of information are all pointing that way again.

For now the best spec list I have is what I posted a few days ago.

16-18mp
Full Frame
ISO 51,200
Dual Digic V
Crazy frame rates of 12-14fps have been reported
61 AF points has also been reported

Stock levels of the 1D Mark IV also point me in this direction. It seems they are very much being built to fill orders. There doesn’t seem to be any excess stock too many places.

Gossip-mongering of course, but I like the sound of this.

Why a 1D? The 1D Mk4 isn't that old.

Now, a 5D MkIII, or even a full-frame version of the 7D...

Doesn't full frame 1D suggest it's going to be a 1Ds Mk IV rather than a 5D Mk III?
Isn't the 5D range effectively the full frame equivalent of the 7D?

If Canon can achieve those frame rates with a full frame sensor then it would tend to suggest that the 1D Mk IV's days are numbered unless they are going to give it dual DIGIC V's as well which would presumably give it an even faster frame rate (which would be heading into video type frame rates and it can already shoot video). Alternatively, they could replace the 1D with, ooh lets say the 3D to give a range of shooting speeds from the 5D to the 1Ds range.

As usual, it's all speculation.

It would appear we have an answer:

Canon EOS 1D X

I never realised my camera needed an ethernet port. :shock:

I guess it could be very useful if you want to do a lot of tethered shooting.
