Life is good on this guy!
Not any more - chances are he just got fired for talking to random strangers and getting photographed with prototype kit....
I'm seeing 2 different cameras, in their series of photos. Check image 3, and image 6. The controls around the lcd screen are in different areas. Image 3 (below the lcd) and image 6 (to the left, of lcd).
1 series mounted to 200-400 and if you look closely at the camera on the 600 the mode dial has a locking button in the middle. It definitely looks like a FF version of the 7D since their is no pop-up flash and everything else looks very similar, other than joystick on vertical grip attachment.
That 200-400 must be longer than a 300 f/2.8 and due to the zoom nature does not slim down as much as we closer to the camera. It looks heavier for sure, probably at least 2.8kg.

Agreed, two different cameras are shown in images 3 & 6
Anyone seen a price on 200-400mm yet ?

The one with the red strap is a 1 series(no mode dial).
The other looks like a 5DII + 7D + 60D blend. 5DIII? 3D? 5DIII seems logical to me.

Pretty obvious to me that it's a 1Dx and a second body which looks like the update of the 5D/7D combined.
I agree that the lack of pop-up flash almost certainly means that this is not a 1.6x crop.
The "rate" button is very interesting and probably means a high frame rate.
So my guess is that it will not sport a higher resolution sensor. Maybe the same sensor as the 1Dx?
On the camera without popup flash thing.
Yes it does look like a new camera (5D3 possibly) but I don't get why no popup flash on this one. Now that canon have actually got off their arse and made the popup do something usefull like control another flashes I would have thought it would have been integrated into the next 5D .
It's not like a full frame can't have a popup, loads of film bodies did and so does the d700 .

Wow, that looks very, very real! The battery grip with a new "joy stick" is indeed a joy for vertical shooting !
Agreed--this was the most 'exciting' thing I saw. On another note, this person stopped to take images of the new lenses and camera but failed to get a single shot of the camera badge? Smells like a strategic leak to me...

Then that would really piss off all the 1.6x'ers who own crop glass....
In which case, perhaps its not a 7D upgrade but a 5D upgrade. An FF camera compatible with EF-S lenses sounds doubtful
