Every 5D2 user has been waiting for the replacement since 2009. If the AF is really what we all been looking for, it's worthwhile! ;D
 

Latest update from CR

March 2 will be the date for the 5D replacement. Confirmation of events in France and Singapore. There may be something else on February 28.
 

So, the T4i gets announced before 5DX. Is that a surprise?
 

Well, Canon can tickle our balls and launch a high end P&S.... or the 580EXII replacement, or a few new lenses... before they hit us with the new body.....

The foreplay is over extensive!!!! :bsmilie::bsmilie:
 

may be more lenses or a flash someone here has been waiting for?

:dunno:Who is waiting for the flash???? :bsmilie:

Even if it is launched, I will usually wait for 3 months before buying........... :)
 

Was wondering how CR confirmed an Sg event when its pretty quiet over here...

Because there are already event invites for 2nd March locally.

no worries, you arent the only person. i too has been waiting for almost 1yr, refraining from getting the current 580ex. but now i am eyeing for some new lenses, dont think pocket deep enough for new cam, lenses & flash at the same time. thus will wait for another few more months
 

I am waiting for the new cam body only. Anyone else is going to buy once it's announced?

hmm..will be better after some review & feedback for such expensive toy.
 

I am not surprised if any felloew CSer forwarded the invitation email to CR ;p

It ain't me I swear!

what wrong forwarding info to CR, isnt it good to share the news to canon community to prevent disappointment on tuesday?

Well, then how long does it take for the big magazines and websites to publish the cam review after the cam body is released to the market? Personally, I think 5dx won't be a bad cam, like what u said: it's expensive. Besides, canon won't want to get their reputation screwed after the new ff body is up and running.

I am also waiting for the new camera body but I think that I may wait until the bugs and kinks are worked out of the first or second batch before parting with my cash.

When the 7D came out I bought the very last camera in Singapore's first batch. Many issues related to AF came out shortly after I got my camera... some of them legitimate but most due to user ignorance. Nonetheless, I brought my camera into CSC to have it checked. There was nothing wrong with it but they were kind enough to calibrate it to my lens which produced photos sharper than I had ever gotten before with any body.

The 5D X is likely going to be my main camera for the next 4 years, so I want to make sure that I get one without any potential issues (which I realize is unlikely but best to be sure).
