Here we go again. The old retail upscaling trick.

90D 24mpx sensor
7D Mark III 24mpx sensor
7Dr (same as 7D Mark III but 30 mpx sensor and no low pass filter)
Talys said:A perfect video-purposed camera will have lower resolution/pixel density, because that's how you get less noise and better low light performance. It should have an electronic viewfinder, because you can't see the display screen in the sun (and monitors with shades are often not appropriate). Factors like drive speed (fps) and autofocus modes don't matter much. Instead, in the consumer-ish market, you're looking for features like dual pixel autofocus, subject tracking, and facial recognition.
A perfect wildlife camera for enthusiast types will have higher resolution, because we're forever too short on reach and are forced to crop. We want optical viewfinders, because they don't have refresh issues, autofocus modes and precision are very important, more fps is always welcome, and things like subject tracking don't matter at all. Plus, we're looking at how big the buffer is and how quick it can empty out, something that video people don't care about, because what they want is the ability to constantly write data at a speed fast enough for whatever resolution they're recording.

True, but I would argue that the development cost of the 5Ds was probably minimal, since it reused an existing body design and basically uses an upscaled version of a sensor that was already being produced for the 70D and which was to be used for the 7DII.

if you flood the market people will more likely see your brand and choose your brand your profit may not be the greatest but people will buy into you for a long period of time. Canon as enough money to do this apparently. i am learning this right now with my business. i did a lot of work for a lot of people now I am getting a lot new people hitting me up often because my name is more familiar and my work is better than others out here working.warc1 said:unfocused said:We don't know what this mystery camera is, but if Canon followed the same pattern and used a 90D or a 7DIII body, the development costs might not be that great.
Maybe not the first one, but when a company attempts to create a new market niche, they generally intend to maintain it. That requires ongoing development efforts over time that I would argue could be better spent on more rapid updates of the existing, very comprehensive model lineup.
zim said:What fps's would you put on those?
A 7Dr sounds juicy but please not at to much expense of fps, 8 would be minimum for me.

Yes, that does seem to be exactly what the market wants. The real market...not the 'millions and millions of people' in your imagination.
Iago said:APS-C lineup. Could one of these be a mirrorless with an EF EF-S mount?
bf said:I don't get this approach of product map.
It seems canon wants to act like a car company and these models are different options of each platform that its dealership has configured.
