50+ mp was enough.
I would settle for 8 fps with little or just a modest bump in resolution.

- Swivel screen
- 6fps+
- 15+ picture buffer at full uncompressed resolution
I don't think that is too much to ask for, right?

This would really be slightly disappointing if they couldn't exceed those expectations. I can see the fps staying low on account of the 5dmk4, but the buffer should be easy to improve.
tron said:My wish - although without much hope -
5D4 capabilities and sensor technology and no more than 60Mpixel (even better to stay to 50) so as to have significant improvement in fps (= 7 fps) and reasonable capability to empty the buffer.
50 is more than enough especially if you combine it with a 5D4 like sensor, touch screen, DPAF and GPS.
I would like CF + SD II to excel in compatibility (Have you read about various CFAST card issues and I am not talking about the Sandisk 1dxIi fix) and have reasonable speed at the same time.
As I said just dreaming. I feel these are reasonable requirements but I do not believe they will happen.

jolyonralph said:So I'm pretty sure we'll see 60mpx, DPAF, 4K video with approx 10% horizontal crop (1:2 scaling), wifi, touch screen and all the other modern upgrades. Doubt it will have a tilty screen, I'd be very surprised if it wasn't identical to the Canon 5DIV case in the same way thhe 5DSR was related to the 5D III.
traveller said:Canon has evidently done market research and considers that the marginal revenue from making two different high megapixel bodies (1Ds & 5Ds series) wouldn't offset the marginal cost.
jolyonralph said:60mpx is the sweet spot because it's using the tried and tested dot pitch from 24mpx APS-C cameras. Why spend more R&D creating new sized sensors when you don't need to?
BillB said:Canon does seem to be using the same case for all the 5D models but if they are going to make a design change, it has to start somewhere. They could make the change with the new 5DS rather than wait for the 5DV.
unfocused said:They could, but I suspect the cost of retooling would take much longer to recoup because the 5Ds series only represents a tiny fraction of 5D sales.

Any facts to back this claim would be very interesting.

Um, have you considered the meaning of the term "rumor site"? If you want certainty in what Canon is planning for the next 18 months, I suggest you get a job as a Canon executive in charge of new cameras.

Um...perhaps you should spend a little more time understanding what Canon Rumors is all about. CR Guy has built a reputation for having inside sources who slip him meaningful tidbits. There is a rating system to evaluate the validity of the rumors.
His reputation is based on his ability to sort through the rumors and separate the wheat from the chaff. My point was simply that in this case there seemed to be a lot of stringing together unrelated information and making something new out of it. That's out of character.

unfocused said:You can't really believe the 's' series would ever come close to matching the standard 5D?
I Simonius said:as lovely as it would be for huge prints, and as much as I'm a detail hound, etc, I'm cautious because the timer pix will mean less DOF for the same f-stop in landscapes, needing further stopping down and treading on the feet of the circle of confusion, so losing the possible level of top detail- a quandary of higher mp.
