as it is way too late for april fools day...or is it the intresting camera that was to be announced? ;-) Anyway, you made me smile. Regards from Switzerland.

EOS Bodies / 3D and 5D3 rumors at Northlight images say: No 5D3 until next summer?

EOS Bodies / Re: 5D Mark III [CR1] @torger: Unfortunately ...

english is not my native language. and as I do not understand too much of technique and physics I'd like to ask you if you could translate your obviously intresting post into a more comprehensible one for a non anglo? Hope you don't mind.

So, intuitively I'd take a guess: Even though the native ISO remains ISO 3200 (once read that there is no so called native high ISO beyond that value) it must be a lot cleaner than all what has been seen before.
Is that correct?
If so, is it likely as ISO's remain the same, that ISO 3200 looks pretty much like ISO 400 on my current 30D? In this case, I wouldn't care too much about not being able to shoot above ISO 25600 as there exist the +1 or + 2 EV possibility. Don't know the term...Is that exposure value compensation?

Thanks and regards
Peter

Better high ISO, pixel binning...

EOS Bodies / Re: Would a multi-MP-Sensor be technically feasable or is it purest Sci-Fi?

« on: April 20, 2011, 02:22:26 PM »

"Its hard to rate a non-existent feature, but, if you read the Phase One claims, their camera is 4 times more light sensitive when the binning is turned on.  If it can do that, than in very low light, I'd take the 10mp and 4X improvement in light sensitivity."

plus one.

@scalesusa: I would take one too!

Well, let's stretch the dream a bit: How much would that mean in cash? Let's hope that the overnext Generation of Canon's will implement this technique...that is 3 to 6 years...from now;-)

Thanks everyone for your posts. @bvukich: sounds great, what phase one provides. but full implementation in future dslr's would be quite expensive as I can see. Thanks again and regards. Pedro

EOS Bodies / Would a multi-MP-Sensor be technically feasable or is it purest Sci-Fi?

« on: April 19, 2011, 06:38:56 PM »

As a non-anglo it's difficult to explain my idea. Hope I kinda match the terms.
Moreover, I've got absolutely no technical knowledge in that field.

There was a discussion somewhere on multi-crop bodies: one could chose 1.3, 1.6. or FF according to job needs.
Taking this a step further from the view point of the sensor I come up with the idea, if there is a possibility to build a multi-MP-sensor. Or let's say: Is it possible to activate individual sensor areas using pixel clusters? e.g. if one needs extreme low light abilities for noise free high ISO pictures he'd choose the 12 MP mode on a 28 MP sensor which would deliever more pixel pitch and more surface for photons (did I get that right?) , or 18 or whatever. So a sensor could be adjusted to certain photographic tasks...Hope my thoughts will get across...Regards from Switzerland. Pedro

Does that mean, an also rumoured 5Diii might be announced equipped with a  30+ MP sensor?

alive and well singing in Vegas this August. So the conspiracy theory proves to be right...;-) BTW: An early fall anncouncement as mentioned earlier on this site (I won't forget the grain of salt either regarding the situation in Japan) would be great. So enjoy your days and fire your frames away with any type of gear available...Regards, Peter in Switzerland

Or are there any production plants in other asian countries?

Canon General / Re: Earthquake Effect on myself

« on: March 16, 2011, 03:55:52 AM »

I feel an effect on myself concerning product upgrades and so on. It has just turned irrelevant if ever any upgrades come out or not. I cannot think about new gear anymore, considering the loss of lifes, while reading and watching the daily news. All I can think about is that 1000's of miles east from here, there is a suffering people living in despair. But one thing I strongly become aware of these days is our tremendous fragility as human beings. We are not in control of anything. We are a feeble breed, daily depending on our triune God's grace and mercy. Regards, Peter in Switzerland.

God bless the japanese people as a whole and especially everyone involved at Canon.

As I am not an expert at all what could  be a reason for a possible 5DIII release prior to a 1Ds or however they call it cyclewise...?
Thx and regards

EOS Bodies / Canon EOS 6D / 5D Mark III

as read over at tech radar
also nikon D800 information available
http://www.techradar.com/news/photography-video-capture/cameras/canon-eos-6d-5d-mark-iii-rumours-what-you-need-to-know-931100

what do you think about it?
as they among others go:

2011 Canon EOS 6D / Canon EOS 5D Mark III release date probability: 75% - in fact, we expect a Canon EOS 5D Mark III release by early 2011.
