Canon Teaser Appears in Korea

I think this will be a camera to compete with the Nikon DF or Similar. Why would they have a teaser for a Rebel? They have to respond to all the new tech coming out with something different.

it´s a teaser for korean.

doesn´t have to be a new model at all... could just be a special edition for the korean market.

and i really don´t see why canon has to respond to a retro nikon.

Does Canon usually have teasers for such a small announcement? It seems that they would just announce it, not drag it.

i guess that depends on the local canon headquarter.

there is not much canon advertising here overall.
so i would expect something like that for a 1D or 5D body. ;)
but i think it´s obvious that this is not the case.

Canon doesn't have to respond to anything released lately, not the A7R or the DF.

These cameras are going to have their inherent problems, the DF, no video and poor ergomomics. It's a true pure camera. The A7 series, poor lenses and ergonomics.

Granted, nice cameras in their own rights but stick a lens on them and the weight and size difference are not worth sacrificing ergonomics and easy of use for. I worked out the weight difference between a 50L on a 5D3 and a 50L on a A7R with metabones and the weight was 1280g vs 1500g (roughly).

Considering the amount of investment involved might as well get / keep the 5D3.

I need lighter bodies not smaller ones.

People are studying what appears to be a CG marketing image way too closely.

Who here thinks they really placed a cloth across the new body and photographed it to make this image? Raise your hands...
I think that is a handkerchief to cry into when we find out that the 7D2 will not be released until 2015

LOL,

Thats your opinion. Mine is they do.

Seems to be a white version of the SL1/100D.
Yep, agreed...its the only way to explain the Canon logo being so dark.

Kind of cool, though certainly not the interesting new product people thought it might be

Is it a MILC? It is filed under Canon mirrorless...

A 7D Mark II that is a SLT?
That's because CR Guy had been running with the idea that the announcement might be the EOS-M2; seems pretty clear it isnt, unless they have radically re-styled the body from the M

Perhaps it's an EOS-M2 with an optical viewfinder, designed to look more like a DSLR and less like a point and shoot. ;)

Funny thing is everyone is looking at the body but I have to say first thing you need to check it with different lenses as the lens is most obvious as the glass part is small and could only be either the 40mm EF lens or the 22mm f2 EOSM lens and it look more like the 22mm f2 lens with the edges that are visible.

I hope they do it smart that it be a high end mirrorless similar to the Panasonic GH3. But one thing I really hope is that Canon would build a speedbooster adapter themselves and produce it , just make the EF to M adapter with chip to control the lens plus get speedbooster to change the APSC to Full Frame. If they do that this camera be awesome package. Seriously If they would release also speed booster as a package I would so buy it.

i think that everyone here has it wrong. canon is clearly entering the blanket market - more specifically, they are entering the white linen market.

i measured them against my blankets, and the ones in the picture appear to be full-sized, but i'm guessing that they will come in different sizes.

my main concern is that these blankets don't have enough megapixles or dynamic range to compete with sony or nikon. i'm also guessing that a queen-size set will start around $50,000, so it's out of the price range of most "prosumers." i'll be holding out on the yongnuo linens.
