A less expensive FF?
A chinese forum apparently had a post about Jackie Chan filming a commercial for the Canon EOS 7D. The forum pulled the thread.
Specs that were also pulled:
15mp FF
13 AF Points
Dual Slot
DIGIC V
CR's Take
I have doubts a more affordable full frame option would have anything other than the autofocus of the 5D Mark II.

The 1Ds3 is $8000, the 1D3 is $4500 in the same body – charging a premium for higher rez is already being done. They don’t have to match the D300s & A850 prices exactly, just get it close and between the 50D and 5D2 – hell even if it was $2200 it would sell like hot cakes, and they can come out with an improved 5D3 a year later.
Bottom line is Canon can’t just let Sony dominate the FF market in the $2000ish price range.
see to believe, up untill than .. just wait hehehe
i would definetly upgrade from my 40D to something like this… i dont have the cash for a 5dII…
1200-1400 Euros is expensive for that camera. I prefer paying a little more and get a 5DMII.
i like how cheap FF sounds but sounds like wishful thinking especially at 1200. they’d undermine the 5dm2 so hard if they made a FF for 12 hundo. all the same i wish it would happen
