5D Mark III (or other) Followup

Also it would be interesting if Canon made a 16:9 APS-H sensor, since back in the film days APS-H (known as APS-High Definition) was 16:9 for landscape photography not 3:2 like APS-Classic or 135 Film. This could be a 16:9 LCD on the back of the “mystery body” to go with a 16:9 sensor. If they did make this, then the HDMI out with a 16:9 sensor wouldn’t have those pillar bars or crop marks that the current 7D’s HDMI out has due to it’s 3:2 sensor, this could be the “clean” HDMI out camera we’ve been waiting for! Nikon’s already doing a clean HDMI out with the D4 by cropping a 16:9 portion of their 3:2 so you know Canon has to do something and the current 7D almost already has it.

Aww, I just set myself up for a big let down later haven't I? That camera's probably just a 5DmkIII with a 16:9 LCD display that drops to 3:2 when you hit record :-\

Well, I think that this is going to be the first lens for this new sensor size then ;D
But indeed, I can't see any advantage in a 16:9 sensorsize in the digital age. Why should I drop a part of excellent image information (my lens was made for) in every picture? I'm able to crop it even automatically if I want to have this portion ?!
