HDSLR w/Raw Video?

1ds4or5d31 - Canon Prototype Full Frame DSLR Shooting RAW Video?
1Ds4 or 5D3?

In my inbox, as well as posted on Planet5D (not sure which came first). There is apparently a full frame dSLR being tested in Europe that can shoot RAW video.

Could the camera be the upcoming 1Ds Mark IV or early testing of the 5D Mark III? I've been told previously that the 1Ds4 would have video features currently not available in any Canon dSLR.

The 5D Mark III is starting to get whispers around the web. From myself as well as others. I won't be posting much at this time about such a camera until regular sources start to say something. The camera could come as early as Photokina in September, but I'm still wagering on a 2011 release.

1Ds Mark IV Release Date
Everything has been quiet about a concrete launch date. There also hasn't been any new word on lenses. Going by past experience, this is the calm before the storm.

  1. Actually, modern HDD’s are pretty reliable, but I don’t think we’ll see them inside a DSLR anytime soon:

    o They suck lots of power
    o Vibration
    o Noise — the internal disk of my HG21 comes through loudly in recordings. With an external mike, some still makes it through.

  2. We need lenses. New lenses. Canon?

    24-70 2.8 IS
    14-28 2.8 IS
    300 2.8 IS II

    When is the Mark II 70-200 2.8 IS coming? Let us preorder.

  3. The comment about Germans and Poland is very stupid – not clever, not funny (except for pimple faced school boys, perhaps). If you start to dig, you can find not so nice things from the present and past of any country.

  4. uh… 5D has also had a better sensor than 1D… so what’s new?

    besides, it’s still on the mark IV cycle … you gotta wait a while for the V’s to come out
