Why is Canon so quiet?

[An drew]

Well... Canon is still celebrating the birthday of EOS-1... so no time for other release ;p

Which EOS-1? ;p

 

[rhino123]

Which EOS-1? ;p

EOS... No.1 or EOS ichiban.

Actually, my wish is very simple - a 50MP medium format camera in a 4/3 body, and with all the performance of the 1DX.

Physics says it is impossible, but come on Canon, show them you 'Can'!

Performance of the 1Dx? At that price point I expect a lot more.

You left out the most important one... all these at a price below $700

 

[SilentSeth]

More like 7K

True... true... but I am a realist. I expect to pay for innovation - up to a limit of SGD 1,000.

 

[Sivakis]

Well, I hope they spring a surprise on us!

My wish?

Canon EOS 4D1

Specs:
28MP full-frame GRAPHENE sensor
ISO 100 - 256,000
11 fps
everything else can be similar to 5dm3

C'mon Canon! Show us you are willing to explore new-technology!

 

[rhino123]

I hope Canon can fashion a camera out of cheese.

So when I am hungry, I just take a bite out of it.

You won't see a graphene sensor in your lifetime.

 

[silvermoon1407]

Not impossible. But even so, it won't be Canon that produces it. More likely Sony.

No harm in hoping

Anyway, been hearing voices... 7DmkII is coming...

So many years of gap, may be can term as 7D mk3

 

[niccon2]

If you guys gonna wish... wish big.

For me,

1) Medium format
2) 100MP
3) Build-in stabilizer (5 axis) 10-stops
4) NFC
5) Wifi connectivity
6) Bluetooth
7) Magnesium alloy chasis with very good weather seal
8) Silent shutter
9) Extremely fast AF with 100 AF points (spread out across the entire viewfinder
10) Fast and accurate liveview AF.
11) Tilty flippy LCD screen with 1 mil +++ resolution.
12) two to three times better lowlight performance as compared to current 1DX
13) two to three times better dynamic range as compared to current 1DX or 5DmkIII
14) should be as small as my OMD EM5
15) A wide range of lenses because I would imagine that current EF mount lenses will not be able to support it.
16) 4K video
17) 15fps continuous shoot (with AF)
18) Easy assess to cloud memory, so can store my shots directly there.
19) two memory cards

Yeah. That would be good... but I doubt it will happen.

20) Weight well under 1kg

20) Weight well under 1kg

21) Made of Cheese, so I can take a bite out of it when I am hungry.

Probably have to sell your kids for that. Lol

Ha ha, or maybe EOS 7.5D.

Nothing is impossible but it's damn unlikely.

Nikon has just announced D810.

 

[raydio]

Nikon has just announced D810.

Hopefully this will be good news for Canon users. The competition from Nikon may hasten the introduction of newer variations of the 5D3 and then again, it may not.

The new Nikon variant is simply a collection of small incremental improvements over the 800/800E predecessors. The new camera is priced closer to the 5D3 but is more expensive than the 800 or 800E. I don't see this any differently than the introduction of the D610 which replaced a somewhat faulty D600.
