The head honcho at Canon certainly did not rule out a Sony sensor in Psychic 1's predicted 1DSX:

DPR Question: "One thing we’ve learned is that the sensor in the G7X is not made by Canon. Does this represent a new philosophy at Canon?"

Masaya Maeda's Answer: "We select the best sensor, whoever the manufacturer is. That’s our policy."



Canon has used Sony sensors in their P&S cameras for a long time - in fact majority of their P&S cameras have used Sony sensors. It is mostly the DSLRs where Canon uses its own sensors.

It surely must have crossed their minds that the new 1DsX will be competing against the D810.
So, there's a good chance, IMO, that the new sensor will have class-leading performance - including high DR.
It would be surprising if it doesn't.


I would have said the same, but did you see the Canon interview at DPR?
It sounds more like they feel the sensors are fine as they are, mostly they are very good, so if they are way behind in one single aspect (low ISO DR) who cares. It costs a ton to make a new sensor fab, so why not just keep using the same old same old. Anyway, it sure gave that impression (as does their slogan at the show "it's all about the lenses".
Why would he try to pretend to have never heard of DxO or forum comments, if they were ready to match Exmor?
OK, maybe just to not make the current stuff sound bad, so maybe the interview means nothing but....

Yes, I saw the Canon interview at DPR.
Mr Maeda is a senior executive, though, so I wouldn't read too much into his words on technical matters.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Canon didn't introduce new sensor tech with the 7DII, which would have been the practical thing to do before introducing it on larger sensors.
Let's see if they will do it with their most expensive stills camera.
I can't imagine a better opportunity for introducing new tech than that, so let's see.

+1, i don't think we have problem understanding the limitation of our tools. We seem to have more problem dealing with some canon defensive line backer here. Yes, I just don't love when people get so defensive about Canon as well...

Na, they're grasping at straws and they have turned my prediction into nothing more than a Rumor.

I know that camera has been sitting there for two years and I keep asking CPS if I can test it and they keep telling me it does not exist.

CPS is always the last to know.

BTW, neither of your links was known to me.



Psychic1... Seriously? Neither of my links were known to you?

If your psychic powers of prediction are anything like your powers of recollection, you might want to recalibrate the focus on your crystal ball. Let me help you recall the dozen or so posts you yourself made in the link that you said was not known to you:


Psychic1 wrote (Sep 23, 2012 - p.4 #4):
“+ red focus points and real auto iso”


Psychic1 wrote (Sep 24, 2012 - p.5 #2):
“Six years ago. http://www.dphotojournal.com/canon-eos-3d/


Psychic1 wrote (Sep 27, 2012 - p.5 #5):
“1DsX - $9,000.00


Psychic1 wrote (Sep 27, 2012 - p.11 #12):
Canon is not bound by Nikon or economics and they rarely listen to their clients.



Psychic1 wrote (Oct 2, 2012 - p.15 #6:
"Cost, cost, cost..."

The higher the cost the more I like it, it keeps the rif-raf out of my way.

If you can dis-assemble and re-assemble your dslr and post a photo you might be able to build your own from a kit.

Then, WebDog posted this comment on the thread, providing link to the same 46.1 MP camera

WebDog wrote (Oct 2, 2012 - p.15 #10):

Which you must have seen, because you responded by stating:

Psychic1 wrote (Oct 2, 2012 - p.15 #14):
Just placed my order

https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1153983/0#11011325



And in that link, you said:

Psychic1 wrote (Oct 2, 2012 - p.1 #14):
Just placed my order, $9,000.00



.... apparently inventing a price of “$9,000.00” when not even the supposedly “leaked” or “inadvertently released” or “photoshopped faked” B&H product page listed a price.

But getting back to all of your posts in the other thread that you said you never seen before...

Psychic1 wrote (Oct 2, 2012 - p.15 #16):
They opened at 8PM and I have a friend that works for them, so, I'm first on the list.


Psychic1 wrote (Oct 2, 2012 - p.15 #19):
It's a misprint They gave me the number.


Psychic1 wrote (Oct 2, 2012 - p.16 #2):
Not a rumour!!!

The 1DX is a sports body and the 3D will be their studio body instead of the S designation.

If you recall, I pulled my 1DsIII from Buy & Sell when the 1DX specs were released.




Psychic1 wrote (Oct 6, 2012 - p.16 #13):
Gentlemen
Please remind me, when was the last time Canon missed an opportunity to put their hands in our pockets.

A $9,000.00 - 46mp 1DsX will soon be a reality.



Two years later, repeat pattern, as before, a few weeks before the local PhotoPlus show in NYC. Eventually, Canon will release an improved, more expensive camera. So eventually, your “predictions” will be close to correct. In the meantime, you got people’s attention, once again. Is that what you wanted? (If you recall) !

Not that I want to get involved in this but you really need to tone down the hostility. Whether Psychic1 knows something or not, it is supposed to be a fun thread speculating about a promising future for Canon. Don't worry so much about the details .

With 842 posts in 8 years, you were easily overlooked and forgotten, but I do admire your ability to research and check facts.

I am working on a project that requires your expertise.

Please contact me.

I knew there was a reason I started this post.

No worries! There is no hostility written or intended.

Part of the "fun" of "speculating" about future models of cameras is sifting and sorting through credible clues versus regurgitated fiction versus wistful wishlists. If anyone claims to predict something is coming, and posts about it, then that act alone by definition is an invitation for challenge and discussion.

Seems that there isn't a lot more to say about this. A claim of being "psychic" will be convincing to some and laughable to others.

On the other hand, the actual course of events a few months from now will be the proof (or not) in the pudding.

According to Focus Locus I am a habitual predictor and occassionally I get lucky.

I'm searching for a Crystal Ball with micro adjustment.
