What ISO improvement is likely to be expected in an upcoming 5D3?

Sorry, don't want you to get bored. Just a question. In a post here I read this:
5D2 is about 2 stops better in High Iso than 60D, and about 1 stop compared to a 7D

So, shooting a 30D I will wait out the new body. What are your expectations? Will 25600 by its native ISO? Will it go up till 204k or what do you think?

Cheers, Pedro

so the same comment suggests that there is 1 stop difference between 60D and 7D, while they both feature exactly the same sensor?

no way :)

AndersBorg:
The 7D and the 60D are equal in terms of high ISO noise. They both use the same 18 megapixel sensor.

I dont know how much better the 5Dmk2 are, but we can expect the mk3 to be even better at high ISO.

JR:
Well that is the question that veryone wants to know.  At this point I am not sure we can assess what kind of ISO improvement will there be for the 5D3 if any!

The D800 might be a good indication when it come out.  My point is if Canon decide to make the 5D3 the high MP cameras in the 28-36MP range everyone wants, I am not sure about the technology to make such sensor better at ISO then the current one.  The 1DX is supposed to be the ISO king hopefully.

I say this with reserve of course.  If for example the D800 has similar ISO performance then the D700 which only has 12MP and is currently the best in class, then yes Canon better bring on ISO improvement or loose market share...Many of us would like to see a high MP cameras with amazing ISO for low light, but we might have to get two different camera to get both worlds...

Very speculative at this point...

Edwin Herdman:
All previous models have had improvements in high ISO capability, so it seems likely that the 5DIII will as well.  It certainly shouldn't perform any worse, with three years' development (or more!) over the 5DII.
