You hear the same specs from a lot of people, price with 5000-5500$ will be 6500-7000€ in Europe. The same level as I heared. Rumors, but a lot of Sony rumors got true.
As I´ve written in another thread, it will be a big splash for sports/wildlife- and a chance for us customers that Canon has to react on that product.

With zero long telephoto lenses for the E-mount I doubt the splash will be big. All those "stories" are circulating SAR since the A7r2 release...

Time will tell. There has to be some upgrade coming out whether it's A73 or A9 E mount. Sigma just announced support for the E mount that has to focus better than an adapter with Canon glass. 72 MP is crazy-town for most uses and the 5K price too but options and competition is good for the consumer.
