Canon didn't cancel the "1Ds" line when 1DX came out!

so...any chance you could enlighten us all?

don't hold your breath. seems like a tall order to me.

RLP...you got any popcorn popping?

Lots of talk about NIKON’s better performing sensors. Some-one please correct me if I am wrong but, doesn’t SONY make NIKON’s FF sensors and only have FF since they could source from SONY. NIKON are assemblers of others components. Sure, CANON went to sleep, helped by their massive market share and profitability. CANON is milking the old technology, makes for more profit and hence more R&D dollars. Manufacturers can’t always have leading and bleeding edge technology; however, I won’t be surprised if CANON starts to get serious in the near future. I think that SONY is the ELEPHANT in the room and could further eat into both NIKON and CANON’s market share. Competition is always great for we camera consumers.

Sleeping is Canon, they have nothing to introduce in resolution, DR etc today
Nothing I have seen

It's hard to see anything when you're wearing blinDRs.

The 1D X has an excellent new AF system and a faster frame rate than any FF dSLR, ever. But Canon is sleeping because Mikael is afflicted with DxOMark synDRome. Whatever.

Im talking about DR, resolution, sensor tech not AF

You and Jrista have a funny way to answer here at CR , if we are discussing cars I will not answer you about motor cycles

Is it a big trauma for you that Canon are at 17 place in the sensor rankings?
and maybe have one of the best AF?

Mikael, your still on about DR? Lol. That's Cute.

thanks, how about 17 place in the sensor rankings?
or do you still think 85/1,2 is the best 85mm, etc etc the list can be long!
a little more nuanced view might be nice

Although I can't typically remember to follow every thread that I've viewed with interest, I have noticed your ad nauseum rants lauding the sensor rankings from your favorite website. Due to the fact that your posts are so predictable, I'm wondering if you've ever supported your school girl affection for DxOMark reviews with actual images that can validate your seemingly endless mudslinging of Canon sensors vs the "vastly superior Nikon D800".

Yes...Sony. It would be interesting to know what the deal is between Sony and Nikon. Nikon is now dependent on Sony in order to maintain their DR advantage.
Similar to how we will all be dependent on the CC regardless of price...Adobe is trying to throw their noose around my jewels. I'm beginning to hate them.

As you maybe know, 10,12 or 14 pictures/sec is a choice and also affect the readout noise and even the numbers of keepers

If I'm not mistaken, we are on a site talking about Canon gear so having a belief in the brand isn't uncommon.
As for "Im talking about DR, resolution, sensor tech not AF" well if you're going to talk about cameras its you can't just argue your point and disregard everything you don't want to hear. Canons autofocus makes them a competitor in the market and they are leading the push in terms of video do don't be so hasty to think they aren't relevant.
