i wouldn't stay up late myself for it, however since i usually go to bed well, well after midnight, i might as well give it a look since I'll be up anyway.

I'm afraid the movie mode will degrade the sensor by over-heating it. It could seriously reduce the shutter life.


That shutter would wear out really fast. Just think of it flipping every single frame of the movie. (emoticon goes here).

Are we missing the obvious?

What we know for sure is that the camera has a 1 series style prism cover, 1 series style "EOS" label, the bottom is obscured but the size indicates a 1 series integrated grip, and has top controls similiar to the 5D.

To me that suggest a higher-end camera.

Forget all the rumors. Maybe Canon has given us real information and we're too busy with guessing to notice.

3D, 1Dv or ?

Well the current 1 series doesn't have the little bumps in front of the ISO etc buttons on the RHS of the camera, so I somewhat doubt it's a 1 series.

Well color me wrong... since the 'evolution' teaser came out, every time i had seen it, you could easily discern the dial. It certainly looks 'shopped as all get out.. from canon or not.

Muy interesante, supongo que quisaz es me cupla que no he visto paginas de canon en español .

Viva la Evolución!
.

Y,.. aquí, tenemos un link directamente a la pagina de canon, en español...

http://www.canon.com/moon/es/index.html?19338

Dial is perfectly visible.

I maintain that image is hacked... even if by canon.

For reference, here's my 24L mounted on my 5D. You can see the lens in the "moon shot" looks more like the 24-105 on the inside than the 24L

great now will have another boat load of 24-105s in the B/S forum

Lads, the image is not a fake. I surfed on over on my Nokia 'cell' phone: turns out its the image you get if your browser doesn't support flash. ITS NOT A FAKE! Awesome!

Prove me wrong: disable/uninstall flash and try the page...

It is fake... its a PS job. Its provided by canon, but theres no way that is photographic. You can see the blending on the prism shading.

Thanks. I did that around Christmas. It was a mess before. Fred has also invested in better serving.


World of difference in how the site runs these days. I'm a long time dev, so I really appreciate both Fred's efforts on getting better service and any of the programming work that has been done.

ohyeah it's obviously not the camera shape, but some had been wondering if they were covering something up underneath.
buti bet it is just an early version when they still had the dial and EOS covered and that it's a non-story

Personally, I think Canon is just having some EOSFun with us and at our expense. I've been waiting for an upgrade (AF and low noise) since January and figure I can wait a little longer. But if I'm dissappointed (in the AF and low noise) whenever it's announced, then daddy will take the keys away for the EOSFun and I'll be looking for some coolpix.

The 17th of September,
Thats the date,
Canon drop the bomb shell,
Nikon's gonna hate,
But what about Sony?
Thats simple: fate.
Big up Canon,
You're my mate!

Can you tell I'm bored...

Might have to snag one then. I can see the utility, even though I like the 24-70 overall. Never hurts to have too many midrange zoom lenses.
