Where have they announced this? All I've seen is rumours of an announcement.

I hope not.

If it meant that Sony was the only game in town, I'd agree. But Toshiba, Aptina, Samsung, etc. are producing viable sensors, so if Canon has decided it isn't worth keeping the line going, I couldn't care less.

Alas, hopefully....the Sony the "One and Only" zealots can choke on this new Canon sensor!!!

Then again, maybe not ;D

None of them make a dual pixel sensor that I know of.

A 4K screen is probably going to look almost as good as a full resolution print with a 20 megapixel body.
In 10 years or so when we have 8K televisions, you'll be glad that people were using 50 megapixel cameras to take pictures.

I'm excited by the CR3 of the upcoming announcement. This makes sense, given that 5DIII prices have been getting pretty low, both grey market and authorized bundles/rebates. The 6D bundles have been looking good, too.

I won't be in the market for any of these new bodies, but I'm hoping it pushes the prices of the current generation down even further...

I'm expecting a scaled-up 7DII sensor...gasp...and that wouldn't disappoint me. :-X

Can't wait to see what Canon does!

is the m3 going to be sold in the US? if not, I will definitely not be purchasing it as it seems like a bad sign for the system as a whole.
If it isn't released in the US, I'd see it as a stop gap to continue the M line until they decide to make a more viable FF/APS-C mirrorless system in the future.

Don't care who makes the 50mp sensor as long as it does not have ugly banding in the shadows. I'd be ok with 22mp without the OLPF if it was ISO invariant like some of the newer sensors. I am tied to the Canon system, I like it, I love their lenses.... but am sick of having them use 6 year old sensors in their FF line.... when every Tom, Dick and Harry has shown us what is possible with their redesigns. Why is Canon taking this lying down. This is not something you brush under the carpet, almost every tech discussion around Camera bodies involves the DReaded topic.... it's not going away boys.... Canon may be happy with their Rebel sales, but causing angst to their loyal enthusiasts is not very Business Savvy since the pros and enthusiasts are what boost their operating margins more.

I don't shoot video, DPAF is not an innovation that get me very excited. Am looking forward to leaf or Global shutters, AF that locks on the eyes for portraits, AE linked to AF point... and non-Bayer sensors; I don't care if it comes in a 1D body.... please give us stills shooters something to be excited about....

I'd love the 11-24 but not for that price. MAYBE if it was a 2.8, otherwise I'd just go the road most people do wanting a superwide shooting landscapes and pick up a Nikon 14-24 which you can buy new for $2k and used for about $1600. Why would I pay $3k for an f4 lens? Just doesn't make sense to me.

Because you get 11mm which is much wider than 14?

I expect a lot of such upgrades will be on the new 5DIV (or whatever the name will be). During the last 3 years the competition has really moved here - Canon less so. However, Canon can do a lot more with a high end body than they did with 70D/7DII.

Have to believe they are going all out to regain the high ground.
