EOS Bodies / No 70D threads in a while...what are your predictions?
« on: May 08, 2012, 11:56:14 PM »
OK, I have not seen any threads in a while specifically about the rumored 70D.  It comes up in threads about possible 7D upgrades, but only as a product lineup issue.

So what do you think?  Timing?  Features?

My two cents.

Phototonica announcement (maybe sooner).  On shelves by Thanksgiving.

8fps
22MP
dual SD slots
7D autofocus
more rugged body than 60D
and hopefully focus peeking

Third Party Manufacturers / New FF from Sony - A99 - 102 x-type AF
« on: March 28, 2012, 09:28:12 PM »
There is a rumor on sonyalpharumors that sony is developing a new FF that has 102 x-type AF system.  24MP sensor.  SLT.  Here is another reason to kick your 5D mark iii into a lake (just kidding).

This lens was announced a year ago, but never materialized.  The older version is no longer available either.  I rented the earlier version (not the oldest one) late last year.  It was a great lens.  It didn't have stabilization, but the nice, wide aperture allowed me to shoot most things shake free.  This was a very nice lens, and from what I could tell had very good IQ.  I was eagerly waiting for the updated version, but I think maybe Sigma has killed the project.  Maybe too much overlap with the 70-200 f/2.8?  This lens was nice and light, small, and built really well.  It was really just a nice lens.  Too bad.  Maybe I can buy this lens from my local rental place.
