1D X Delay, Weight, Number of Shots ***Official***

I've always gotten many more frames per battery cycle than specs when it comes to Canon cameras, so I'm not overly concerned about the frames/battery specs yet.  The fact that they have added an additional chipset is likely affecting battery life, but I wonder how much the new battery regulations in Japan are affecting it as well.

At this stage, I know enough about the overall specs that I am only interested in hearing two:  final price and firm release date.

The old battery is said to have 90% of the capacity of the new, so not at all.

I never had more than 1400 on the mkIV, so spec'd to 1120 means 750 in real life, and that's the same I get from the 5d2, which is pretty useless, I charge aaall the time....

I get over 8000 shots on a single Mk4 battery no problem. You must be shooting in live view??
