Last month we posted that a 32.5mp APS-C sensor was on the way and it looks likes that information has been confirmed through a Taiwanese certification agency.
Code Names K437 & DS126801 APS-C DSLR:
- Digital SLR
- Wifi and Bluetooth 4.1
- LP-E6N battery
- 6 level battery display, similar to the EOS 5D Mark IV
- Maximum image size: 6960 × 4640, 32MP
- This will likely be a 2019 release
We'd wager that this camera will be the replacement for the EOS 80D and potentially the EOS 7D Mark II.
FPS will be interesting and focusing system. ISO performance too.
My 7DII is quite worn. I’d be in the market to replace it with something better.
32.5 * 1.6 ^ 2 = 83MP.
And the megapixel race to nowhere continues...
I think he is referring to the battery display, not the battery. There has been some discussion on this forum about the higher end cameras having a more segmented display to more accurately assess remaining charge in the battery.
On the topic, I believe you can get a specific percentage remaining on a higher end body by digging through the settings can't you? When I grab my camera bag to head out I often run through all my batteries even if they show full charge to check their status - i.e. the display showing full charge, but sometimes the actual percentage may be ~85% where others are like 97%.
No. The x0D series has ”always” had a six-segment battery indicator. Presumably more indicator levels and more battery capacity (compared to Rebels) go hand in hand—I believe all bodies with LP-E6 batteries also have the more precise display, and those with smaller batteries have a four level indicator.
(Btw, I wonder why they include this tiny detail in these certification documents :O)
32.5 MP APS-C sensor. Give it high frame rate, I can see a lot of sport and wildlife photographers appreciating the jump from 20.2 MP to 32.5 MP for cropping and potential additional detail for larger prints.
