I dunno guys, the LCD illuminaction button is in the same place as the 5D2... and look at the proportions of the LCD screen, wider than the 50D,... like the 5D2
Also, look at the modes on the dial, same modes as the 5D2, not the 50D.
Any ideas why someone has gone to the trouble of pixellating the yellow sticker on the prism cover?
This does not look like a full-frame camera, unfortunately. My guess is 60D or 7D is not full-frame Definitely not a rebel - no cat mode.
Movement of the on/off switch to this position is very welcome, although I still prefer the Nikon way, since it's under your index finger right after you press the shutter and discover the camera is off.
Actually - just noticed that 50D has cat mode too. This mode dial is identical to the 5D one, so this is almost certainly the 7D, a more professional APS-C camera. Yawn. Could this mean the end of the road for the xxD cameras? Is there a purpose to producing this AND a 60D? Does this mean the line up is now xxxxD, xxxD, xD, 1 series?

This looks to have too small a penta prism housing to be FF IMO. The bump doesn't seem to rise very far above the plane of the top of the body. Maybe wrong though, as I can't recall how the old EOS 5/7 looked.
Just because the Illumination switch has moved, Canon is probably just standardising the layout.

It's a fake, albeit a good one. If you look carefully, you can see the flaws that give it away. (Maybe fake is too harsh a word, but the fact that it's been photoshop'd makes me suspicious.)

How can you make a statement like that and not get specific.. What flaws

I'm planning to bring out a series of "camera cases", which will essentially be a DSLR casing, into which you can pop your P&S, hook up the buttons, and get immediate street-cred by fooling people into thinking that you have a Mark IV when you actually have a G10.

hard to say, maybe they just move the rebel up a smidgeon and turn it into what the xxD had been and then make the 7 series a super-tricked out APS-C line or a gripless, half-generation behind APS-H??
no clue why they hid that yellow sticker
the original photo i found had the dials and M.Fn. also hidden
on this one they revealed all but the yellow sticker part....
Definitely not a rebel - no cat mode.
