No 4k? It's useless.

fuckin this... but still camouflage is a great addition.
I already have mine in pre-order @ BH

Do you think I have to sell my 1D X now before it becomes obsolete?

Haha, very funny canon rumors.. I know i will never visit this site again. 90% of rumors here are off anyway and once you make me excited for a new 1D camera it's a joke..

Bye bye

I rang Canon at Lake Success and asked them "When the 1D W would be available".
The girl on the phone said she had never heard of it.
Then I said "Ha ha, April fools"
I cant believe they fell for it.

I expected a false 7D mkii rumor for April fools. That would have really gotten a rise out of the community.

It would have been nice if this license was announced tomorrow

This is the most well made camera ghost I've ever seen. ;) If it existed it could cost only $ 18,000, and would have some photographers really interested. ::) Congratulations to the creators. :)

OK... here goes....
Canon has announced the 7D2 today.... it is just like the 70D, except the mode dial has a hard stop to keep it from going all the way around. The tilt/swivel screen has been modified with double sided tape on the back to remove the functionality and keep the "I DON'T WANT A TILT SCREEN BECAUSE IT WILL BREAK OFF WHEN I BUNGEE JUMP HOLDING THE CAMERA BY THE FLIP SCREEN AND THEN IT AND MY 800F5.6 LENS WILL FALL AND BREAK" crowd happy.

The double sided tape took three years to develop (it is rumoured to have greater DR and lower noise than Nikon tape) and is the reason it took so long to get the camera ready for release.

This reduced functionality will be priced at $800 above the more capable 70D.

A *real* one - 7DII, 24MP dual pixel sensor, ability to read the halves of the pixels at different ISOs for DR expansion and noise reduction, 5DIII AF including f/8 AF points, 100-400L II with great optics optimized for use with the 1.4x TC III on the 7DII. That would be some serious handholdable reach.
