Apparently this came from the Canon Japan web site. I call bogus because of the “IV” moniker.
Can anyone translate this?
It was from here (link is dead now): http://cweb.canon.jp/camera/eosd/1dsmk4/index.html

It is easy, Canon will not make the same promotional material. IT IS FAKE
It looks fake to me. I and V are misaligned with the latter being a bit too low.
Anyway 5DII is the camera to get now, 1DsIII has somewhat lower spec and higher price tag and weight. Nikon D3X doesn’t look that sexy either with 1600 ISO and 5fps. D700 probably has the most appeal to me of the other cameras.
my 2 ct
It says:
– Approx. 27 mega pixels
– Full size(36 x 24 mm) CMOS sensor
– 5.0 shots/sec.
– 3.0 inch LCD monitor
– 45 AF points
– ISO 100 – 6400
– DIGIC IV image processor
– Approx. 1210 g weight(body only)
* ISO speed is the same spec. as 5DmkII. So, it will be expandable.
The 1D3 replacement is very important to Canon.
Maybe not the 1Ds3. But with the D3 being faster, FF and 12mp, the already almost obsolete 10MP 1D3 needs a MP bump and a hi-red screen with video for sports and journalism.
The 5D2 is not a pro camera. 21mp is great but the body is bad. The grip is too small, especially with long lenses, no vertical grip either, limited AF system and even the eye cup is too small.
Canon needs more professional equipment. I know their bread and butter see the point snd shoots and the low end Rebel DSLR’s but Nikon is outdoing Canon in both levels and that’s scary.
I need a 1D3 replacement desperately.
It’s 27MP, but it’s also a fake 27MP.
My prediction is there will be no Marl IV. The number 4 is a very unlucky number in many east asian countries. I believe it means death. This is the reason Canon skipped the G4 and G8. But that’s speculation mainly.
It’s fake based on a good deal already mentioned.
