Even I fully agree with the post mentioning the lack of new sensor technology in Canon FF cameras since a long time by now, I am quite certain that Canon will come up with someting new in this regard at some point (my unverified guess is 2015). For Canon ist is now a matter to stay in business with FF technology, and they won\'t let this fully slip. It will be a catch-up game for Canon - we will see what they show up with.
But don\'t keep your hopes up that you will see soon a 5D MkIV (a real 5D MkII successor so to speak since the MkII wasn\'t it). First Canon will follow its ridden path and come up with a new brick-like 1D-series camera with their novel FF sensor before they will announce a 5D related model at least 6 months later. Then it will be interesting to see what the competition will have at this point. The Sony Exmor 50 MP sensor is also rumored....if Sony/Nikon move one stop ahead it means that Canon needs to move at least two steps to move equal.
