A Canon DSLR First Coming to EOS 5D Mark IV [CR2]

[quod]

OVF/EVF is the one they need.

 

[WillT]

Come on eye controlled focus or what ever it is called on canon film cameras.

minor update...

Minor update so forget all the evf and new hardware wishlist items ;-)

I'll pick proper (RAW) RGB histogram and programmable ETTR exposure mode.

Suggested to me in a rumour several years ago, and something I've asked Canon for every time I was asked about my use of their cameras.

Love to have sensor stabilisation but sure Canon won't give that to us!
That is a major feature so it is unlikely what it is!

What about a Sony sensor? sure Canon first! But I don't think so seeing where 1DXmk2 is going...

Probably crop shooting mode or EVF or something boring like this... :

While the EOS M3 has focus peaking, it would be a nice, not necessarily ground breaking feature to have in a Canon DSLR without having to install Magic Lantern.

I hope they are aiming higher than that though. IBIS maybe? Or am I dreaming?

I honestly do not know - but does any Canon DSLR have GPS built in?

6D was the first to have GPS for geotagging. Unless you actually mean functional GPS for navigation

K-Cup compatibility!

For the price it would command, i would at least expect a coffee maker... maybe an optional sandwich maker as well =) oh yeah, that's my wife.... nevermind.. lol

 

[bestimage]

16 bit processor

Is this a first in DSLR's? Or a "first"... like how Apple claims to have invented everything?

Apple DID invent everything: a usable computer, usable printer (Postscript), usable music player, usable internet-in-your-pocket device, usable tablet, usable Dick Tracy watch, usable music/movie downloads. OK, they're working on usable cloud-synching, you got me there!

cup holder, you can never have enough cup holders :

Implementation of C-Log/Canon-Log as a picture profile would be nice, if it's a video-related feature. I believe it's currently only found in Canon's cinema series lineup.

 

[ccardona54]

How about a new High Dynamic Range, ISO Invariant, 48 pixel Sony-type sensor!! Nah, it would go against their "glacial innovation pace" philosophy!

Minor typo above, I'm presuming... :

[midluk]

Integrated cloaking device for stealthier street photography.

 

[padam]

Internal RAW video with global shutter

Or maybe it is only something like focus peaking lol


Sooner or later they should start adding electronic shutter as well, it would be useful even with its current limitations (although that's something where the OVF is just useless, but the Live View AF is quite decent now)

 

[Phenix205]

Voice command. Just say, "let me see your hands", then the shooting is triggered, using the CA cop voice.

 

[YuengLinger]

Customizable ringtones.

 

[Mikehit]

There was talk before the 7DII came out that there would be an EVF overlay on the optical viewfinder so it could be VF histogram.

From the OP

We’re told that the new camera will have a DSLR first from Canon, but the source was unsure if any other manufacturer has or will have the same feature in one of their cameras.

....maybe it's a decent sensor? :-X

 

[sigh]

Implementation of C-Log/Canon-Log as a picture profile would be nice, if it's a video-related feature. I believe it's currently only found in Canon's cinema series lineup.

Not a first in a Canon DSLR though. The 1DC has C-Log.

Sorry, I don't see any typo (got an A in Copy Editing/Proofreading from NYU!) ;-)
