Wow looks like the D800 really forced Canon's hand this time round; I stand corrected on my previous predictions.

If it is going to be a 1Dx junior then USD 3.5k is quite a steal really....

5dm3 will definitely be a monster, well, I don't like the 36mp d800, it's like a joke. Glad canon didn't fall into the pixel war against nikon.
 

I just got an invite from Canon SG for an event on 2nd March.

SPEED. QUALITY.
How do these matter to you in the world of imaging?

Hmm...

Any chance you could smuggle a CF or SD card and take a few RAW's to be posted here?... scratch that... I don't want to get you into trouble with Canon police.

Pro printer....... -.- maybe....maybe......
 

I think that there's no chance that it would be anything other than the 5D MkIII as the marquee product to be announced. There is so much anticipation that anything else would cause the Nation of Canon Users to revolt!
 

I also received the email from Canon Singapore, for an event on 2nd March 2012. I'm pretty sure this is for a new EOS camera instead of a printer.

Speculation: new EOS body announcement on 28th Feb 2012, Canon Singapore launch on 2nd March. No coincidence.

If the specs at CR are true about 5d3, I am so happy that Canon did not go the d800 path. I won't be getting one at least until next year anyways.
 

Still nothing announced on flash... guess have to wait till 28 Feb then know.......... :think:

I meant though CR3, still not officially, so I am waiting for the official one.......

Nikon is able to made D800 at USD3k with important feature of D4, I believe Canon can as well. After all, Canon has bigger share in dslr segment so the economics of scale will give canon a better position to offer competitive price. But now it is too early to tell unless we know all the feature & performance of this new canon FF.
 

With the AF system of D1x and likely a better iso performance than the last generation of FF sensor. I wonder will it impact the resale market of 1Ds mkiii & 1D mkiv.
 

Hopping its the 5d mk3 then the price of mk2 will drop and i will get the mk2 :x
 

22mp meaning they will up the FPS? CR3 did not mention about it. I really cannot wait for this cam review :)

You mean the specs of the new flash? I guess these will be announced alongside the 5D Mk3.

With the camera body(s), lenses, and flash, we're going to be busy sorting through all the announcements! Canon Nation unite! :cheers:

Hi bro....

Yah... so far, only rumored new flash, new guide no, and new radio trigger....

I just hope that it will be more flash exposure will be more accurate..... but that will need to wait for it to be launched and then, users review.....

For Canon Nation, we could be going a financial crisis indeed.... haha.... :bsmilie: wondering where to get the money to meet the BUY BUY BUY BUG.........

24-70mm II, New Flash, New 200-400mm + TC1.4..... 24 & 28mm prime....................... Money No Enough!!!!! :bsmilie:

for those that wrote "waiting for price of 5d2 to drop". i think if you did not notice, price already dropped in B&S in the last 1 week plus. so no need to wait...

fact:
canon already did have this 5d replacement ready for launch before announcement of D800. or else they will not be able to pull the rabbit out of the pocket so soon.

if you did notice, the idea of 2 FF camera rumor (excluding 1dx) only did come about after the launch of D800

my theory:
this camera that is about to be announced by canon is not likely to match up with the D800 especially in the area of image quality. hence a 2nd FF will be in the pipeline perhaps later this year.

ok, its just a theory.

I think that many would agree with your theory house3377. In addition to the 22mp camera, there were many rumours of a 46mp camera.

I believe that some are counting on it!

Actually, the Fujifilm Xpro-1 is also very very tempting.... if Canon have something in that class... lol... Canon Nation will be in bigger trouble!!!!

After the new FF launch... I guess that the next rumor should be on the EVIL... since 24-70 II and FF body is FINALLY out......................

The year 2012 will indeed be an exciting one for we citizens of Canon Nation!

Does the antidote to BBB come in pill form?
