Canon EOS Rebel 750D Spec List [CR1]

[Canon Rumors]

<p>A spec list we were given has the upper end Rebel split into two different cameras, a 750D and a 760D. The North American naming was not given for the cameras. We expect an announcement for a new Rebel(s) to come in the next  few weeks.</p>
<p>The biggest thing I notice in this specification list is the 24.2mp image sensor. It has been assumed by most that any new Rebel would have the 20.2mp sensor from the EOS 70D.</p>
<p><strong>Canon Rebel 750D/760D Specifications</strong></p>
<ul>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">Full HD movies, MP4 format, HDR movie, automatic shooting modes (EOS 750D )</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">24.2MP sensor and Canon’s DIGIC 6 image processor</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">ISO 100-12,800 range </span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">Flicker Detection technology</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">Five frames per second continuous shooting mode</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">19 cross-type AF point system </span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">Hybrid CMOS AF III </span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">Rear Quick Control Dial (EOS 760D )</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">Creative movie modes (EOS 760D )</span></li>
<li class="p1"><span class="s1">Wi-Fi and NFC</span></li>
</ul>
<p>This information comes from an unknown source and I’m hoping for some clarification on the model split if it is indeed true. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of difference between the 2 models. Please notice the [CR1] rating on this post, and treat it accordingly.</p>

T6i and T6j ;D

No point in having an xxD dslr line, maybe making room for a new 'type'?

 

[candyman]

The rebel is moving up...19 cross-type Af point system, up until 12.800 ISO...nice

 

[bereninga]

Way more cross-type AF points and MP than the 6D. Lol

 

[Cosmicbug]

Bodes well for the xD and xxD lines of cameras if they can up the specs considerably on the xxxD camera.
New sensor??? I hope so.

 

[studio1972]

Am I right in thinking that there is no dual pixel AF, so it won't do touch screen focus pulls like the 70d. Shame

There has got to be a differentiator between those lines, I think you might have found it!

 

[filipe]

Is it possible for Canon to use other brand 24.2 megapixel sensor? For instance Sony.

What about the upper screen seen in the images? any word about it?

Thanks

Apart from what can be deduced from those 'leaked' images, such as the top LCD, and that it would have NFC (or else it wouldn't have been shown with the CS100) I wouldn't put much faith in the rest of that spec list.

Why a new sensor when they have to recover the investment on the dual-sensor and can reuse the existing 70D/7DMKII sensor?
If they did, it would have to be better than the 70D sensor else why use it? And if it is better (even if only in some dimensions, if not all), then all hell will break lose in the 7DMKII camp...

Unless it is a replacement for the 70D as well with that 19 cross point AF - perhaps that is why there is a new 24mp dual-pixel sensor. And the two model split mentioned is more like a 750D and 75D, rather than a 750/760D

Whatever, its good fun speculating. Even if we are totally wrong

And if it is not a new sensor but a sensor from another brand that altready exists?

This. Unless it is just a little better, I can't figure out why to release 7DII just before introducing a new, better sensor and so "out-dating" 7DII's sensor right away.

On the other hand, hopefully it really is new and better sensor, maybe we'll see 7DIII in 2015 too. 8) (nope)

And if it is not a new sensor but a sensor from another brand that altready exists?

That would be interesting.

Splitting the Rebel line would be strange, then Canon would have six APS-C DSLRs for sale: the 1200D, 100D, 750D, 760D, 70D and 7DII. Rather a lot, I think.

That would be interesting. If it is Sony will it be a slightly bigger APC sensor with 1.5x crop factor? Or would they disable the outside pixels.

I agree with that, and also because 600D, 650D and 7D are still selling

 

[kphoto99]

The big differentiator between 7DII and this new camera will be (beside the AF) the FPS and the size of the buffer. The current Rebel's buffer is speced at 3 raw frames, the reality it is just 2 raw frames. The 7DII buffer is 31 raw. A big difference.

It would still need to be better than the 70D sensor, or why use it?

And if it is better, the same 'problem' for 7DMKII owners and potential owners persists, whomever the brand is?
Why did you put a 'tuned' 70D sensor in the 7DMKII, only to then release a 750D at half the price with a new sensor with (probably) more megapixels, greater dynamic range, and less noise?

Well of course the 70D sensor was better than the 7D - new cameras leapfrog old ones all the time. But not usually when the previous one is just weeks old.

And of course, the 7DMKII has a whole host of features that the 750D would not. But even so, a 750D with a better 24mp sensor would still be a better alternative to the 7DMKII for a whole host of scenarios where things like weather sealing and 10fps are not required.

 

[chungdha]

Think more 750D and 75D or 80D. Think 760D seem bit odd otherwise compete with own 70d too much when you look at the specs be like 70D but cheaper which the 750D mostly is. But 760D be 70D body with upgrade be quite an odd move.

The greater crop factor does mean this can't be an existing sensor, except perhaps if it were a version of the new 28 MP Samsung?

These specs do seem pretty unlikely to me but if were talking about a spilt in the Rebel line that's already happened as you have the T5i, T5 and the SL1 all marketed under the Rebel name in the US. I definitely think theres room for the Txi camera to move up market due to both the other two lines and the presense of many rival mirrorless cameras offering higher level performance/handling in a smaller body.

If that's the case then price wise you could be looking at something that's not a great deal cheaper than the 70D thus doesn't need to worry much about undercutting it.

Keep in mind, it's still a rebel with rebel size and ergonomics. To me, a lot of the reasons to shoot with a pro camera or even a prosumer is just the better feel in the hand, buttons, controls... aka ergonomics. Things that you can't list on a spec sheet. Mounting any real glass on a rebel feels incredibly unbalanced to the system as a whole.

Total shot in the dark here, but could the different between the two be a traditional DSLR and a mirrorless? One of them removes the mirror and adds an EVF? With how conservative Canon is, this could be their way of hedging a bit and seeing how the market responds. Give the consumer the choice in basically identical bodies and see which one is popular? A little experiment, test the waters, and let it help drive their future market decisions.
