Canon 5DX still to come?

[Otter]

There has been a lot of talk over the past while about canon splitting the 5D line and having on camera geared towards photographers and one more towards videography. I hear rumors of a 4K dslr. Does anyone think that the line may be split and a 5DX is still around the corner as this is supposed to be a record year for Dslr announcements.

Wouldn't it be more or a 5DC? or a C5?
A 39MP cinematography focused EF lens compatible version that had uncompressed HDMI and 4k - could definitely be a niche market.
The rumors went on Canon's announcement of the C400 I think where they promo'd a concept camera. (that at the time looked like a rebadged 1DX just do they could put something on display).

Wonder how many photographers would be spitting feathers if the high MP camera from Canon was for video primarily not stills?!

Yes but ist is Not a 5D X or something it is more a Canon C-Line in the 1dx Level with High Mpx

I think you meant C300, not trying to be a dick just didn't want people to see it and get confused. But yes, they are making a cinema dslr and that will definitely have more MP than the 5DIII. I doubt that they are going to call it the 5DX though, as it's going to be part of the cinema EOS line.
