5DX/5DIV announcement Q1 2016?

[pedro]

Hi,

Just a few thoughts:

According to the timeline over at NL, is there a slight chance to see an 5DIV announcement by March 2016? As this would relate to the 5DII's cycle up to the 5D3. Having my 5DIII (purchased 08/27/2012) recently been stolen (Aug 6) due to an assault from behind while walking in the streets with a group, I hope, my insurance will pretty much cover the loss. Lost a 16-35 F/2.8 USM II lens along with it as well.

So it would be great to make the purchase sometime later next year. Maybe even the Sigma 12-24 F/2.8 will be announced and shipping by then.

Wishing you a good summer (or what remains of it), and enjoy your Mark III's in case you shoot one. It was a terrific cam and would have been fine for years...sigh.

Regards, Peter

Hopefully the police will catch the criminal.

Thank you jeffa4444. They will, by happentance, as they (there were 4 guys), if they keep on doing it like that.

When I was young three guys tried to mug me for my Canon AE-1 it became a really good tool to swing at them buying me enough time to run off (I was quick in those days).

Lol...that's courageous! Well done! I am 51 and today you never know if there is a gun included...So not making me the hero in this case was the better choice, as it happened in southamerican country. But anyway, crime doesn't respect any frontiers. It could happen to me anytime in the whee whee hours in Switzerland as well, as I love to do nightphotography...

I'm sorry for your loss. Some people can be such assholes, at least there are a few good people as well that can make up for the bad experiences in life. I hope you were not injured and that insurance will replace everything.
