Hopefully an ISO 100 raw image will leak out before then. It\'ll only take one to measure the read noise/DR.


More speculation from me.

I\'m guessing the Canon NDAs in place for the prototype photographers are quite explicit about file types and sizes, as well as only using Canon glass for now. The 8 \"Official\" jpegs on Flickr are the only full resolution files I have found so far. I would hope for a planned / scheduled gradual release of RAW image files as well as a relaxation of the restrictions on lens brands, based on firmware / hardware finalization in the coming months. Perhaps not. Sony and Nikon have yet to make their 50mp moves, and those rumors / releases would probably figure into earlier release of more data points. I think Canon is wise to take their time and not rush to production, and a consequence of that reluctance is a limited information release.

I am also in general agreement with those who say Canon are downplaying performance so as not to increase expectations amid an already highly skeptical and even hostile installed user base.

I for one, am already sold, whatever the DR turns out to be.

50mp for 4k! The downward pricing pressure on other 50mp makers could increase over the next year by a fair amount. The 5Ds R - 11-24 F/4 combination is just more than 1/2 of the least expensive 50mp CMOS MFDB.

And now a Sigma ART F/1.4 24mm.

An exciting year for everyone. Some may be not so happy, but still quite exited.
