Re: Canon 7D


More leaks.. this time from Taiwan... the official Canon announcement in mandarin. See
here as well as here too

Salient points:

0) Sensor size is 22.3 x 14.9 mm. That is a 1.6x crop.

1) Wireless flash control for Speedlite 580EX II、580EX、430EX II、430EX、420EX

2) Available end of Sep

3) AF with f/5.6 or faster lenses

4) 19 AF points only. No more. But AF points can be grouped into 5 regions for AF tracking.

5) Exposure compensation extends to +/-5 eV

6) Spot metering can now be tied to individual AF point

7) New imaging sensor electronics and design improve signal to noise ratio. Base ISO from 100 to 6400. Top ISO is now \'only\' 12800 (NOT 25600).

8) LCD is new Polymer Network LCD that will supposedly still work fine under sunlight illumination.

9) Battery is LP-E6 (same as 5D2)

10) HD video in 24/25/30 fps and 720p video in 50/60 fps

Just added:
11) Weather sealed like other professional cameras
