They are not going to use the same 18mp sensor for the Rebel next year, because the history shows that each of the older Rebels had a different "new" sensor and only 550D and 600D had the same one. So, it may be introduced in their APS-C flagship camera to prevent the 7D line laging behind the competition. Despite that 7D is already a very capable camera, there is a lot to improve - LCD display (3:2 or even vari-angle), multiple memory card slots (CF+SD?), more fps (10?), higher speed flash sync, more processing power (dual Digic5), larger buffer, 1080p 60fps video, better performance sensor (cleaner ISOs and better DR), it may not need a new AF or metering system, but it could be like an improved version (rev.2.0). Maybe Canon decided to update all of their xD bodies (1D, 5D, 7D), what's wrong with that?

I think I'm going to stop posting DigitalREV tweets, they've done this twice previously. Once for a Rebel that already existed, and something else I don't remember.
Meanwhile, the only new products on the Canon Japan home page from today are a couple of new calculators, so I guess that must have been it.
This is rubbish i need to go full frame but don't want a 5d mk2 cause its dated and i want a body to last me 3 years which would mean it would be a 6 year old product canon get it together
