Re: DSLR & Lens Coming on January 15, 2013? [CR1]
Personally, I was very pleased with the 60D...
Give the 70D AFMA and better high ISO performance and it would be a winner for me.
Unfortunately, I fear that canon uses AFMA (amongst other things) to push serious users higher up the ladder...
I was just in the local canon dealership to see if they showed any tells or tics when asked about upcoming stuff, but either they are very good p0ker players or else they are in the dark like us...

Well, at least it is a Tuesday...;-) So, looking forward to a CR3 for a 14-24 announcement. If not, I will get the 16-35 sometime later this year and will get at least some decent CR2s every now and then. 8)

7D Mark II - [CR1], unanounced
With every last Canon camera iteration people expected "new sensor tech" but were disappointed: 650d, 5d3, 6d... as each new lens is surely "THE" lens like the upcoming 14-24L.
But realistically, Canon is more about incremental updates than big leaps, and the really useful stuff is sure to end up in a high-end and/or very expensive body first coupled with a healthy early adopters premium.

7D2 - top of the range crop no?
Top of the range pro is all about reliability and getting the job done is that really the best place to test out new sensor tech? I'd have thought something around the 7D would be about right. Hey what do I know only having fun it is rumours after all

Just a day and some hours for the 15th. This will be interesting. Whatever camera it is I hope there are some noticeably upgrades.

I agree, 7D mk2 should have a new sensor because with an old but upgraded sensor, it wouldn't be saleable.
700D will be announced this summer, with the same old sensor 550D had, it wouldn't also be saleable.
Think about 70D... its life cycle is 2-2.5 years. Who would buy it in 2014, especially after the 700D if it would have the same old sensor?
My bet:
- Canon will release the new, ~25MP ASP-C sensor this year, with more focus points on the sensor compared to 650D
- 7D mk2 will get this sensor with a DIGIC5+/dual DIGIC5/+ processor
- 70D will get this sensor with a single DIGIC5 processor (maybe 5+ but I don't think so), just like 650D has
- 700D will get the new sensor
- 7D mk2 will be the "king" of ASP-C, with a performance like 5D mk3, with enhanced movie AF but no flip but touch screen (not sure)
- 70D will be a "bigger" 700D with some extra functions (bigger buffer, better battery, faster shutter, etc) with enhanced movie AF and flip/touch screen, maybe movie digital zoom feature
- 700D will get a slower shutter, smaller battery, smaller buffer, slower movie AF, no movie digital zoom, etc
Any other option would be a failure by Canon because these ASP-C sensors are 3.5 years old!

That's what people said about the 650d, but a 7d2 with more precise af, 10 fps, less banding, gps, wifi, maybe swivel screen, many more juicy firmware features (af @f8, multishot, 7x bracketing, better afma, ...) - doesn't that make your mouth water? :->
Not really, the 18mp sensor on the 650d (phase detect pixels) is different form the aged 7d (more banding). But if you look at the reviews, the 650d has some more capability for highlight recovery, so Canon goes on tweaking their current tech just like 5d2->5d3->6d.

I totally agree ... I think some folk are born to crib (I mean bash ;D), I saw a thread in here where people were cribbin and finding faults about a lens cap that costs less than $2 ... I can imagine how bent outta shape they will be when they see the 7D II price tag. ;DAprilForever said:

My CR0 prediction.
70D
650D sensor
7D focus points
Digic5
5 to 6 FPS
wifi
gps
60D body
Not sure about the lens. Whatever it is, it will be probably out of my budget.

I wonder if it could be another mirrorless camera or a lens for it? This a large market that Canon is almost absent in....., although I would have expected that at CES

It is a CR1 rumor to keep you clicking. Why is this even a surprise that nothing major will come of this rumor... It is aterall a rumor site...not a "fact" site.
Tomorrow, we will have a new headline "DSLR & lenses REALLY coming Feb 2...no no, we mean it this time" and you will be on the hook checking back.
