54 Megapixel Full Frame Sensor with 2460 focusing points!!!

Only 2460 focusing points ? If it does not have 2470 points at least it is useless... ;D ;D ;D

My camera has about 16 million focus points and covers 80% of the sensor area.

SAR may be fun to follow , but it is always exaggerating things and always want to generate some meaningless forum fight by using extremely aggressive wording, so I think it is better take it with a grain of salt.

That sort of thing is just completely unnecessary over here, all you have to do is say "7D2" and another 15 page thread pops up.

Seems like SAR has already picked up on the Canon rumours of a new sensor.

I do not know if he was joking, but he says that:

All I can tell you know is that I heard about a 54 Full Frame Megapixel sensor from Sony (with 2460 focusing points (no joke!) and the focusing area covers 78% of the entire sensor). It was actually planed for a 2015 release but maybe Canon will make them change those plans…

Not sure if it is just very quiet in the rumour website business at the moment, and they have all agreed to throw a little spice into the mix, but it looks like Photokina could be a very interesting show to attend.

And let me guess...with all those focus points...it still back focusses and misses the target?
