Can you post a screenshot of that? (Not that those can't be faked, mind you...)

I don't think shirozina would lie about something like this. Unless you're looking for something else in the screenshot?

I'd like to be able to point users from another forum, who have no idea whatsoever as to the credibility of any user here, to the screenshot.

Probably the best way to secure a perfect result (so's you know he's not mucking with the screenshot, as you alluded to above) would be to fill out the Capture one beta 4 feedback report.

Which, as far as I could learn from the Phase One website, is done through an URL that's launched from within the Capture One beta 4 software itself. Which I haven't installed. To do so would have been an option of course, but the issue is taken care of. Thank you.

And it makes it highly likely that there are pre-production bodies out in the wild. Which in turn further solidifies the PMA08 introduction speculation.

The Capture one site is truly making reference to a 5DmkII.

Imo, this was a good way to get a free advertisement, and it worked perfectly...

They are referring to viral marketing / viral advertising. A very valid point, I have to admit. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_marketing
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guerrilla_marketing
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stealth_marketing

This new nugget of information spreads like the proverbial wildfire on various photography boards and presto, both PhaseOne and Canon will get free PR as result of it.

I can assure everyone that I have no connection with either corporation other than as a customer/end user of their products. But then if I was planting a 'viral' ad I would deny it wouldn't I. But there would be no point not denying it either as by now it's probably doing the rounds on photo sites all over the net. Maybe Canon and Phase One should pay me for doing their PR - I'd better send them an invoice!
