Canon Teaser Appears in Korea

[weixing]

Hi,
An EF mount Mirrorless Camera??

Have a nice day.

A mirrorless like SL1, compatible with EF lenses is not a bad idea. Just use the 70D sensor and will be a serious competitor for micro 4/3.

That's pointless because the focal plane won't move forward with EF lenses, resulting in a 'fat' body that has room for a mirror but no optical VF or fast AF. Hmmm....

Hi,
AF might not be as fast as traditional PDAF, but potential is there.

With dual pixel sensor technology, may be Canon can come out with user definable AF points... it'll be very nice to be able to define the number of AF points, where your AF points and the size of your AF points.

Have a nice day.

Does this not end the speculation? It is so .... ahm .... black and white!

Lots of full frame cameras coming out and Canon gives us firmware updates and a white Rebel. That's pathetic.

It's even silly to show teasers for practically nothing.

Respectfully, for all the hurt feelings with Canon not pushing the performance needle every year, this is the industry standard to some extent. See the graphic from http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/rumours.html that I've attached.

New FF rigs come every four years or so and Rebels come every year. The only thing that screams refresh in that timeline is the 7D.

And Nikon's not that different, btw. Their timeline is also on that page for review.

It's Sony that's really winding people up with frantic development and commercialization of FF rigs. But with each one (the two RX1 rigs and the two A7 rigs), they look interesting on paper but have a serious drawback once a veteran photog gets to play with it. I honestly trust Canon (and to some extent Nikon) to take forever on the new tech to make sure it works for folks like us, Nikon D600 dust notwithstanding.

Well I shoot APS-C and I don't use video... For what I do, Canon hasn't done anything interesting since the 7D. I don't even need Canon to innovate at this point, just follow some of what their competitors are doing and I would be happy.
