*UPDATE* Upgraded CR Rating
I upgraded the CR rating based on finding out who the source was. He's been right in the past.
Specs
10fps
1080P 24/30 fps
720P 60 fps
45 Point AF – 39 cross
self cleaning sensor
100% Viewfinder
16.1 APS-H MP
3″ LCD
63 zone metering
cr

Uh so IV or V or am I smoking crack?
I honestly don’t know, nor do I think it really matters. We just want the camera.
45 af points???
Only 10fps was hoping for the 12 reported earlier …..although still only cr1
Man, I sure hope so!!! Don’t care so much about the 12 fps as I do the MP vs early reports of 20+!
I don’t think it’s PS’d. here are a few changed I noticed…

10 or 12 fps, com on be serious … you don t use neither 10 nor 12, stop complaining for stuff like this ,
What we Want is DYNNNNNAAAMMIIIIIk , and 1600-3200 iso absolutely clean with a working AF :)
Get some more tasty spy shots like the 7D … I just want some of those right now. :-)
Perfect.
I never believed that skipping of IV and going straight to V nonsense. These specs sound pretty reasonable to me. I think this is the real deal, get used to it
10 -12 fps ever tried to get bat on ball Dumb-o that extra 2fps matters
AMEN
Doesn’t seem quite as amazing as the hype has been making it out to be.
What about ISo range? The 25K “native ISO” does not make sense, since it’s 8tops faster than base ISO and where is the DR to do that? If sensor is 13 stops of DR (better than any previous Canon), there’s only 5 stops left and everybody knows the last two stops in LLs are just noise basically, so actually we’re talking about 3 stops left, I wouldn’t like to see that image.
I agree, who cares what it is called. If it does 10 fps or more with 16 or so MP with large pixels for great low light ability without real noise and spot on AF Canon will then reestablish itself as the leader in sport/nature photography circles. Tomorrow will tell.
Since we are in the hoping mood…hope it has same battery as 1dIII would hate to have to buy more of those
It´s just me or it seems a “photoshoped” stock photo from an old mark III?

practically twins
except for minor details like the mark IV tab, the mic holes, the front “bump” at the right near the connectors and some rubber like “cover?” on the back right side that doesn´t appears on mark III.-
someone knows when the 7d is going to arrive to miami’s best buy stores??
Dear Canon,
All be well in the world if you give us new tack-sharp L zooms. That is all.
Love, Justin
Why do you keep asking this? Call bloody best buy and ask.
Is that lip on the back by the external connectors seals an articulating screen joint?
I 2nd the tack sharp zooms comment from Justin!
Cisco Systems skipped IOS 13 (unlucky in US) and IOS 14 (unlucky in some other cultures) on their way to IOS 15 after 12 – it could happen here too.
I’ve pulled it off at 8.5 (1D2), but I’ll admit there was luck involved: http://www.flickr.com/photos/programmerman/2611738017/
Vincent Laforet says “check my blog for an update at midnight EST”…at least things are looking likely for an update.
We’ve been trying to reach you all day to tell you that we got the goods.
I actually just want lenses, any ideas on that? was gonna get a 24-70L but since I saw the 24-80L remark around the internet my wallet hand froze.
Amen.
Check here at Midnight E.S.T. tonight when the NDA expires: http://blog.vincentlaforet.com/

Now this is more like it…a decent image, that looks credible, and now of course the teaser by V. Laforet.
If there has been a shortage of leaks, I would attribute this to Canon moving up the announcement from next year in order to better compete against Nikon’s new D3s.
The only question is if Canon has moved up the release date. Either way carries some risk.
If not, it will be a bummer to announce a new model but make buyers wait until early next year. It will then be transparently obvious that Canon is reacting to Nikon.
However if Canon is moving up the release date, I hope they make sure the first models that ship work well and do not have any bugs as a consequence. First impressions are so important.
+100
Greg-
I could not agree more, this looks like a logical progression, nothing “revolutionary” to me here.
+100000000
hahaha
Thank you, Keep in touch!
bit of patience wasn’t so painful now was it? it sounds like a lot of the pros doing early testing are clearly excited for the camera, which certainly bodes well. I think Canon has learned the first impressions bit inch by painful inch
I agree here. I have a feeling we’ll see (as per the rumors) a release mid December or so. Great Holiday gift to oneself. In time for the Winter Olympics as well. Hopefully this one has been (is about to be) field tested and approved by the usual suspects. I do think we will see an evolution in video recording. 720p or 1080p at 60fps sounds about right. Video RAW would blow the top off the HD-DSLR industry!
Coincides with the October 20 date. At worst, I think this is a firmware update (24/25p) for the 5DII. At best, a 1D that Laforet has already shot a film with.
nice, thanks for the link…info shall flow forth in about 2 hrs!
oh yeah, link for those interested: http://blog.vincentlaforet.com/2009/10/19/check-back-tonight/
Hmmm, you could be on to something. I know some scoff at such a screen, but it would sure come in handy for low level shooting, high level shooting etc. I know right angle finders are avail, but a screen would be a better solution.
its 4am in germany what time is it in e.s.t ?
I hope one day we will see a 1D or else camera used all f/2.8 cross-type AF points.
Only a couple of hours folks!!!!!!!!! Let’s hope it is true. Right now I don’t have the cash but if this is what I hope it is, I will DEFINITELY be ready to pre-order!!!
It is 10:04 pm right now!
+Pricless
It is 10:04pm right now.
oops
+Priceless LOL
I doubt it very much.
It’s possible, but based on the timing I’m thinking it is probably genuine.
i bought one 10 days ago at best buy miami :P
Its 1:32pm here in Australia 20/10.
I think this will be a big leap forward in the video dept, along with some rumored new accessories. This will probably be more of an incremental evolution in the still photo dept.
Canon gets it…that video in dslr’s is a huge market. Neither Nikon nor Sony appears at this point to properly understand that, or are moving way too slow.
00.00 EST Time
So it still 9.47PM 19th Oct.
Should see something at 4pm Australia time, 12am EST time.
*nods in agreement
that sooo looks like a markIII :(
This is floating around now. Don’t shoot the messenger if it’s BS. :)

Breaking News:
Specification have now been confirmed here in Tokyo, the camera will be named the 1D Mark IV and the specs are as follows:
– 21.1 Megapixels
– Full Frame with 1.3 Crop Mode
– 8 FPS in Full Frame Mode
– 12 FPS in 1.3 Crop Mode
– Dual Digic IV Processors
– Native ISO 25,600
– Boost Mode ISO upto 102,400
– 45 AF Points – 39 Cross
– 63 Zone Metering
– 1080p @ 24-60 fps
– 720p @ 120 fps
– S-RAW Video
– HDMI HD video output
– 3″ Fold & Tilt LCD Screen
– Self Cleaning Sensor
The actual body ergonomics haven’t changed a great deal, with the biggest difference being the new Fold & Tilt LCD and the appearance of large hot keys beside the screen, that look slightly like the ones on Phase One Digital Backs.
There will also be three accessories at launch:
1. VDSLR Mount System
2. XLR Pro Audio Module
3. 1TB Flash Recording Module
The XLR Pro Audio Module and 1TB Flash Recording Modules are made to connect into the VDSLR Mount System to convert the camera into a fully fledged Video device, changing the form factor into one that Filmmakers are more familiar with.
Will report back when I get further information.

yessssssss. weep weep weep.
fold and tilt lcd?
wow.

Sorry about that. The post on CR got lost in the ether. I’ll go sit in the corner until the press release. :)
Wow … that’s cool!!!

I forgot to add:
“What’s New in the EOS-1D Mark IV: Advanced Autofocus System”
“The new EOS-1D Mark IV Digital SLR camera features Canon’s most advanced Autofocus system to date. It is equipped with a newly developed 45-point AF sensor featuring 39 high-precision cross-type AF points, and an all new AI Servo II AF mode that gives still photographers the power and performance to track and focus a fast-moving subject at speeds up to 10 frames per second. With more than twice as many cross-type focusing points as the EOS-1D Mark III and a new AF sensor construction that improves performance in dark and bright light, and with low contrast subjects, the EOS-1D Mark IV has greater subject detection capabilities than any previous EOS model.
The newly-developed, high-precision Area AF sensor has 45 AF points including 39 cross-type AF points. All 45 AF points can be selected manually as well.
To complete the range of AF improvements, Canon has developed a new AI Servo II AF predictive focusing algorithm that significantly improves responsiveness and stability by making better decisions on focus tracking in a variety of shooting conditions.”
blah I beat all of you too it glory be to JAY hahaha
Nice work! Where did you find that link?
BTW, camera looks like a sleeper.
Canon came up with a new rating, CR4!!!!
Very nice links guys got the Videos downloading now
The images on those pages did not load . . yet
DIRECT PRINT!!!! IT HAS DIRECT PRINT!!!!
lol I like that
Here you go people.
http://cweb.canon.jp/camera/eosd/lineup/index.html
You mean larger photosensors. Pixels will remain the same size.
P.S. I agree.
I third it and fourth it.
Which part of Australia. :p
Perhaps if they painted it pink it would convince you?! :P
Don’t know why you said no one uses the 10fps that’s all I soot with now on my mark III and have placed a order for the mark IV, I can handle the 10fps but the new focus is what I’m looking for and also the 16mp is great. I’m printing 24×36 posters every week with 10mp and can’t for the new camera. Everyone should be very happy with the Mark IV, I’m a sports shooter :)
Many people have alos become fans of Paul Smith Shoes since they came into the market. I also one of them , I very like Paul Smith Wallets and <a Paul Smith Belts,It designs very good.
