If Canon outperforms Sony and Nikon spec wise it won't do anything for me. I would love Canon to substantially improve upon current Canon models. I don't care what competition is doing. This is easier said than done as current models are excellent in what they are supposed to do.
If this is going to be a major announcement I feel that it won't be just about upgrade models. There should be something more.

5 days ago, someone in DPR mentioned February 1 announcement date for 1D XII. He actually said both 15+ stops of DR and 22MP were wrong. This is what he said:
"Didn't even get the Resolution right and they BS about DR ratio. Canon already handed out NDA for 1Dx II during CES. You guys can wait for Feb 1 release and stop reading Canon Rumors BS."
When asked how he knew about this he didn't want to elaborate referring to NDA.
There was another mention of February press event in DPR couple of days ago by another forum member. So, it seems that 1D XII announcement is only two weeks away.

I think that DR will improve by only 1/2 to 1 stop over the current model. They haven't built a new sensor fabrication plant so unless they get the sensors from another manufacturer I can't see them getting a huge increase in DR. What I do think is the DR will drop gradually as you increase the iso making it a more usable camera in lower light.Diltiazem said:

That's true of their mid and lower end stuff. High end products tend to take longer, especially when they get development announcements such as the 200-400 (15 months) and the 600 DO (still in the works). However, with the Olympics in under 8 months I doubt it will take as much as 5 months from announcement to release like the 1D X did.

Although I would never be able to afford a 1DX/1DXii, this is really exciting and I can't wait to see what the 1DXii will be like. I'm really hoping Canon do a huge upgrade for all the new bodies this year (6D2 especially).
Since Nikon and Samsung have that partnership now, what happened to their partnership with Sony? If it has ended, that does leave the slim possibility of a Sony/Canon partnership!

Frankly this has to be a 1DXII.
But part of me wants this to be a 18-55mm STM mkII.. which realistically is probably their biggest selling lens.
just imaging the look on everyone's faces!

Well not so much a partnership, but they did acquire their mirrorless tech. Actually seems I may have been wrong and it wasn't confirmed :-[

No, they do not. They can convert an exist fab process in an existing plant. It's already been done. The C300II has on sensor ADC.
