I thought Nikon was in for a hurt when they released the spec of the D600.. no MA, 1/4000 max shutter... but it looks like Canon has outdone themselves... what the heck is the 11 AF points and only the center is cross type :S

センサーは5D Mark II の流用ではなく新開発の20MPとなっているので、その画質に注目したいところです。また、AFユニットは他に見当たらないスペックなので、これも新開発でしょうか。価格はニコンD600よりも2万円程度安価になりそうです。 This is some great news

Nikon uses 'fine-tuning' as Canon uses MA. Per Nikon spec it has fine-tuning.

truely sad...
Canon needs a MAJOR sensor upgrade, NOT even one that in the same league as the Sony ones, but ones that are BETTER.
We all want, and need, better dynamic range, pure and simple.
Then, and only then, would I be interested.
I'd like to see a TRUE NATIVE ISO 50 also, the high ISO performance seems okay, though, that is my opinion.
I'm guessing they don't have any right now.

I am thinking it might actually be a more video centric stills camera than the 5D3.
Actually hoping that is the case. 20 Mp is certainly plenty large for that. There are a lot of other features that are needed for vdeo.
I saw recently taht the 46 MP Canon seems to still be in the future.
Maybe Canon can move the 5D3 down to compete with the Nikon D600?
We will see.
I have no problem with the existing sensors. Although they do have the low noise, 12 stop dynamic range sensor at a base ISO of 800 on the C100. Maybe also for stills in the fuure?
Built-in WiFi & GPS ... about time this becomes standard! The camera is not for me, but it should be a great opportunity for many once the price starts getting discounted.

The specs are terrible, but if the price is right it could be a game-changer. At $1,499 it might do for full frame what the original Digital Rebel did for affordable dSLRs.
