EOS 3D Back in the saddle
From [POTN] via [NL]
The new camera will have a “radical new AF system” that I do not have any information about.
I am unsure about the information I got… either it will be just 2.0 crop or 2.0 and 1.? crop.
Soon to follow will be F2.0 IS zoom lenses. I believe this is why the reason for the 2.0 crop mode.
Of course super high ISO and the fastest FPS seen in a DSLR camera yet. Sounds like this will be for sports users for sure. I am guessing that most cameras will have GPS and Wifi by then so you can expect that too.
Oh yeah, no CF card slot. SD or maybe a new card format? There is talk about built in memory too.
Please remember, this IS a rumors site! I brought the ranking system about so I could report everything without much confusion as to whether or not it was legit.

I have no idea how long it has been around, or if anyone has heard of it before. Today was the first for me. It seems like a decently reasonable idea.

I'm glad to know I didn't steal my camera from anyone.
DXO Site
A few comments about the DXO sensor rankings site from a few of you. I'm not really a fan of it. I've seen completely different results with my own eyes.
Switzerland Pricing
Yes, I figured it was just a miscue by the site I mentioned.

Why would a 3D have 2.0 cropped sensor? It doesn’t make sense.
If anything it will be a modern day version of the EOS 3 film body with less MP’s than the 5D II, but with pro AF.
Personally, I can see the *D bodies all being full frame in the future and all **D, ***D and ****D bodies being cropped.
What a great idea. I just registered my cameras or should I say I just created an inventory list :) Hope the site takes off, I see some good potential there.
I will like an eos 3d as googd as original Eos 3 (from 1998):
*AIM System with 45-point Area AF, 21-zone Metering & Eye Controlled Focus
*Ultra-high-speed predictive AF up to 7 fps with optional Power Drive Booster
*Pehaps fixed pellicle miror like Eos rt (1989) or Eos 1 rs, to improve the lag and preserve the sensor from dust
*16 mpx is a number that sounds good, full frame .
It will not be an EOS 1dxx, it will be like EOS 3.

why have a 3d while we already have one then ?
all what they have to do is to name the 1d as 3d and name the 1ds as 1d and here we got a new camera in our hands. :)
Thank you for the sensible critique. Me & my neighbour were preparing to do some research about that. We got a good book on that matter from our local library and most books where not as influensive as your information. I am very glad to see such information which I was searching for a long time.This made very glad!
