I have new info! The new camera to be released is a mirror less camera with wifi and a touchscreen..... See attached photos of prototype :)


Didn't you get the memo. Humor is out, seriousness is in.

Besides, your obviously photoshopped image isn't fooling anyone...
This is not humor. This is evidence! You may think this is funny because you are incapable of handling such a state of the art camera ;)

7D II would be a significant deal for Canon...they won't just drop such a SLR body cold via a CR1 rumor here.

We would have heard a lot more through different well-orchestrated PR channels to maximize expectations and hype...Canon would make a big song and dance about it and promote it with teasers etc....

If we are lucky we may get some mangy second rate product... but given the CR1 rumor track record recently, nothing at all may come on the Jan 13th other than another CR1 rumor for Jan 21st.

Its called "keep the pot boiling". :P

Yeah some new process sensor 7D2 with 5D3 AF, coming in 2 days with no solid rumors of any sort, no leaked pics? No way.

70D, if anything, and I really wonder about that, doubtful unless it just recycles the current sensors.

OMFG, I really love this forum. This may be my favorite stream yet. So, my guess is, if the rumor is correct, an xxD body with STM capability and a new STM lens. Makes sense that STM will get beefed up and that feature sets will expand while the STM lens family grows in the direction of prosumer needs. But I may be wrong! Someone please hand my a$$ to me and wax eloquently on the subject of my ignorant stupidity.

Back-up prediction - a blandish xxD and the 14-24mm, or maybe a rush to announce a 35mm f/ 1.4 to respond to respond to the apparently sweet new Sigma 35mm f/1.4.

I love Canon cameras and lenses, and I love all you Canonite/Canonista fans/lurkers/trolls. Happy belated New Years to you all.

What's this stuff about "incremental upgrade?" Do you have anything to back this up or are you just thinking aloud?

Personally, I am expecting a brand new sensor with superior IQ and ISO performance to the 18mp sensor that is in use. Also, 6 fps, the new digic 5 or 5+ processor, a headphone jack for video, and maybe some other updates for video like high bit rate, low compression codec and maybe better frame rate options.

Also, an updated body with better ergonomics is welcome.

If you want to die laughing, look up any thread about the 7D, or even aps-c vs fullframe. The poor 7D gets bashed to infinity. The 7D mk II will probably also get bashed to infinity, unless it is aps-h, in which case only half of the bashers will bsh, but they will bash twice as much. If it is full frame, the bashers will stop bashing, then they will look at the price tag, and then there will be a thousand dark threads blackening the sky with the smoke of their "Canon charges too much" bashing.

Canon is ok with a lot of bashing if there's a lot of buying at the same time ;-p

The problem is that some of the 60D bashers up-graded to the Nikon D7000 :( The question is will the EOS 70D be more of the same-old-same-old :( and cause more Canon users to become Nikon users :(

...and some of the D800 bashers upgraded to the Canon 5DIII. So what?
