I'm bored, so here my statements:
3000D - sub-300/350D rebel DSLR
-> there is no market for this. The 350D is already very cheap, people who want less buy a P&S
20Dn - minor improvement to the 20D, akin to the D70s
-> no sense in doing minor upgrade on a model like this, and the D70 is more like a competitor to the 350D anyways
25D/30D - incremental improvement to the 20D (10+ mpxl)
-> the most probable from my point of view. although I see a a problem with sensor size and increasing resolution (probable testfield for Digic III ?) Voted for that one.
"7D" - full frame in a model below the 5D, above the 20D
-> the 5D is already called a "niche"-product. This would be a niche inside a niche, getting very small if you ask me. Specially it would mean taking the 5D and cut down some more features to compensate for the low price but keep in the FF. Wouldn't do any good.
1D mk III - full frame, 20+megapixel, other improvements
-> from what canon said, unlikely. Next new pro body should be the get together of the 1D and 1Ds lines. If that's it, what's the point of the 1D Mk2 N?
18-70 f/2.8-4 EF-S 'walkaround' lense
-> have no clue about EF-S and what they plan, I don't really care either.
50mm f/1.0 mk II prime
200mm f/1.8 mk II prime
-> I put both in the category wishful thinking...
A decent wide angle under 28mm w/ f2.0 or better
-> Now this is MY wishful thinking....
"3D" based on the camera phone pics posted previously
-> haven't see those pics, but heck, I'd buy Canon-Phone...
Announce retirement of the 1.3 crop
-> Although many would not like to see that (I also think it's a nice compromise) I'm pretty sure this is going to happen sooner than later.
70-200L f/4 w/ IS
-> this would be a pretty cool lens, and then again, I'd have to sell my 70-200 4L
Man, I must really be bored. On the other hand there is hardly any more fun time, then during rumour season. That also where I get all my posts from
So, got to put my washing on the line
