[Canon Rumors]

The Big Megapixel Camera
According to Northlight, they’ve been told a new full frame camera in a “1D” form factor is being tested in Asia.

We have heard similar things in the last few weeks, unfortunately without any sort of specifications or features of the camera(s). I am told, that they are not the 1D X or the 1D C.

We’ve had from two separate places that a large megapixel camera is on the horizon. It was said that such a product could come “sooner than you’d think”.

'Sooner then you think', 'but then we'll take a year before making it available'

Everyone sees the body buuuuut ... 40mm F/1.2L ?

i hope it´s a competition for the D800.... not some other overprized thing.

i am not interested in a 10000$ ultra 1D X.

Canon is officially gasping for air and flipping out ! First there is no high res box , "we have merged the 1d and 1ds series to the 1dx"....then the d800 came along lol!! I wish I never bought this freaking 5D Mark III now,

If its the 3D, then the naming alone suggests that it will be priced between the 5d3 and the D1X.

YEAH! This is what i've been saving my dough for.

I'd get it if its 3999$

I just observed the lens in front of the EOS 3D manipulated photo.
40mm f/1,2L ?!?

from the rumored specs it sounds more like an "über 1D X".

1D like body, same AF as 1D X, 4k video, 30+ mp, 6 FPS......

Can't WAIT for the dynamic range debates on dpreview when this baby comes out and get's DXO Marked.

Just a couple nights ago I was looking around to see how many sub-50mm f/1.2 lenses were floating around.  a 40mm one would be a very nice addition ^_^, though the L makes me sad.

Aah, it seems to me that somebody has been daydreaming again .

So, Canon is going to compete with the $3K D800 ... with a $10K camera.

I wonder how this is going to work .
The D800 plus the trinity of Nikon f/1.4G primes (24, 35, and 85) will come cheaper than $10K.

[lol]

I really hope the high MP full frame camera wont be in a 1D style body (and price). Stuff it in a 5D body and price and I'll buy one tomorrow.
