Make sure the lens is weatherproof if you are going to take pics on the waterbed :D

LOL i would have got a pic of the 1D and 24-105 covered in iron ore but i was too busy
crying like a little girl and trying to clean it all off with disposable glasses lens cleaning alcohol wipes
these do an amazing job by the way. It did cost me $175 to have the iron ore removed from the focus ring though hence why i would prefer a non telescoping zoom

The canon entry level full frame will be 6D! It makes no sense call it 7D MK2! the xD comeback to FF; the XXD will be top of aps-c! :)
My hope is: entry level full frame with swivel screen + 24-105L= 2000 Euro! ;D

Why must FF = xD? I have asked this before and nobody has an answer (I am not a long time photography follower so I would like to know from the more senior folk here)
I think PRO = xD regardless of sensor size. From marketing point this makes more sense.
Prosumer & Consumer = mirrorless, xxxxD, xxxD or xxD. Again regardless of sensor size.
This is why I also think remaking the xxD into the FF entry level, swivel screen + 24 - 105L for your 2000Euro makes the most sense. For this price it cannot be magnesium alloy and fully weather sealed or 100% viewfinder. All attributes I will more likely attribute to the xD line than mere sensor size (from a marketing point of view)

That is a fair way of doing it, however that would mean
- 7D would have to be renamed
- 5DII would have to be renamed
- 5DIII might have to be renamed
and I dont think that will happen
Traditionally the only pro cameras have been the 1 series
The single digits have been the semi pro
The double digits have been the 'enthusiasts'
The triple digits for the 'hobbyists'
The 4 digits the entry level
