They always say there is a saturation point (just look at CPU these days and HDDs) :sweat:

When is the MEGA Pixel race ending... isn't 6-8mp good enough? 10mp RAW is huge.

It will never end as long as film exists and ppl try to put a number of megapixels equivalent on silver hydride crystals.

check this out....:bsmilie:

 

[USM]

check this out....:bsmilie:

Brother, you are........................ :sticktong

 

[Big Belly]

Wow! Is this a 'soon-to-be-launched' model???! Looks soooo kinkyyy!!!! ... and with soooo many buttons to press! ;p I like it!!!! hmmmmm .... i do wonder what the 'sex' button does when pressed .....

 

[RonSS]

:bsmilie: To use the "sex" button properly you need to buy Canon's New "Master:sweat: Buster" lens soon to be launch together! The "Mony" button you need a New Canon "Mony Printer" also! :bsmilie: :devil: :angel:

1 can of coke please. thank you

What is Adams mode for? :think:

 

[Inimatad]

I think Adams mode is only good for landscape.
If you use it during an event the camera will probably hang !!

Rough translation.

Rumored models:
50D - 10mps 5.5fps, could be the same AF unit as the 5D
3000D - Low end Dslr model.
Kiss D III - Lower power 50D, prob same sensor but at 3fps
1Ds MkIII - 20mp
1DV - New 1D hybrid model, featuring APS-H Crop mode sensor capable of 12mp/8fps.

Most of these are just rumors like "could it be.....?" and "hopefully...". 50D seems to be the most likely one to be out. As for the rest, will have to wait and see.

Yo, bro...Thanks for your translations...any date to launch 1Ds mk3?

 

[John Tan]

check this out....:bsmilie:

wow powerhouse....I like it...

 

[TMC]

Yo, bro...Thanks for your translations...any date to launch 1Ds mk3?

no launch date but they did mention sometime during spring which is prob about April onwards.

 

[Stoned]

I'm thinking of picking up a 20D too if the price comes down. drop drop drop drop YEAH!!!!

 

[user111]

if the 1Dv and 1dsMkIII both use new type of battery (lets hope its lithium-ion) then i will take the 1dv :thumbsup:

 

[fWord]

Yeah... the mega pixel race is tiring... I'm highly satisfied with my 8MP ~ 8x12 printouts, any higher is a bit overkill ;p Think we will see a slowdown in the DSLRs sales very soon.

Tiring, yes.

But the megapixel race will never end. The progress of technology is alarming. Reading a book published years ago, it would be common to see authors state that 3MP is already enough to produce a high quality A4 print.

Yet, people nowadays might feel more inclined to believe that you'd need anything around 20MP to get decent quality in the same size print. :dunno: To be honest, I am baffled as well as amused.

For most of us who aren't too inclined at pixel-peeping, 6-8MP might seem enough, but that's just for the time being. I think it would be no surprise for me to use my current DSLR for another 3 years, and then take a splurge again for a newer DSLR down the track. By then, we'd be looking at something around 12-15MP at the same entry-DSLR price level.

 

[nightpiper]

is the APS-H size slightly bigger than APS-C? so the 1Dv is a replacement for 1D mkII?

 

[Garion]

is the APS-H size slightly bigger than APS-C? so the 1Dv is a replacement for 1D mkII?

APS-H size sensor is what the 1.3x crop factor 1DII series is using. Its in between that of the APS-C (1.6x crop) and full frame.(1.0x)

then cf card price how? will it drop else no space to store photos ;p :think:

Hahah, that is why I downgraded to a 4mp. :bsmilie:

Just hurry up and lauch so it can make the other models cheaper
