7D replacement: What is a "fine-detail" sensor
- Thread starter jebrady03
- Start date
Compared to the 7D, I would absolutely classify the 70D as a "fine detail "sensor. Whatever or however Canon wants to brand it, the difference is there.

"fine detail sensor" sounds like it came out of the marketing department.
They are trying to convince people to buy the new 7D after all.

Purely marketing rubbish. I expect this will basically have exactly the same sensor as the 70D. Posibly some minor changes in microlens design or filter stack, but there will probably be no new technology in the sensor. Though of course I hope I am wrong.

Dycam Model 1 ?
it was shooting 256 tones of gray only (320x240 later 376x284).
i would not call it a digital consumer camera. it was something for computer geeks.
Fujix DS-1P?
it was only available in japan for a short time.
some say it actually was never sold. others say not more than a few hundred were produced.
digital backs for film cameras? not really a digital camera.
and the price was not really "consumer" friendly.

Here’s my take:
The term "fine Detail" means same old stuff.
What is it going to take for Canon to get moving with sensor technology! With what appears to be yet another major camera launch with a sensor already behind the competition I just don't get it!
I hope I'm wrong but if they stuffed the 70D sensor into this body it is a failure from the day it is launched. The pace by which Canon takes in designing their replacements means you’re stuck with that junk for 4-6 years and by then my camera phone will probably be taking pictures better than that!
I was hoping Canon might break out of their mold and become innovative and put some real new technology sensor in their "Flagship APS-C model", I should know better. I would expect this model to exhibit best in class low light and larger DR of any APS-C camera on the market, after all we are talking about a Canon Flagship, top of the line model here right? I'm certain that the price will reflect that, but I have serious doubts that the camera will perform to that level. All the other features are a moot point if the sensor does not knock it out of the park in DR and low light performance.
That's my two cents, and I’m afraid Canon has lost me I think, just can't justify the investment any longer. I’ll keep what I have a while longer but I will be moving on, and likely away from Canon, as sad as I am to have to make the transition I see no future in this wretched course.
