    So its an 8fps, 18MP camera. This would be awesome if it was a full-frame camera, but most rumors peg this as an APS-C.

    8 fps makes this as fast as a Nikon D300(with Grip), but the 19 AF gives me concern. For sports/action photography I would want the 51 AF points Nikon offers.

    Also, since the 7D is rumored to be almost $2,000 then the Sony A850 that is a real FULL-FRAME camera becomes a serious alternative. Even if you have to change to G-glass or Zeiss lenses instead of a Canon system.

    I find it weird that they use the single-digit naming scheme for a camera that isn't in the same league as the 5D, sensor-wise.

    The 19 point AF is a punch in the face when -like me- you bought the 5D markII which sports the lousy AF of its 3 year-old predecessor. And in the meantime, Canon has been selling the 40D and 50D both with a very promising 9 point AF with all 9 points being cross-type (the 5D markII only has one cross type).

    If this is Canon's answer to the great Nikon D300 and its sports-class 51 point AF... well, once again, they're late.

    18MP on an APS-C sensor is insane. Too much. On full frame it's mostly OK.

    If I didn't have some Canon lenses and a relative interest in the 1080p video mode, I'd be really tempted to give them the finger and go with Nikon.

    Well, if those lenses are for the 7D then it's not full-frame. Phew. I just bought a 5D Mark II two weeks ago and didn't want the insult of something better coming out so quickly.

    Edit: Psssst! Guys! Canon! Only 2 n's, not 3!

    The one function I don't understand on pro-sumer and above cameras...built in flash. I mean, by the time you are at a $2k camera, you most likely are using either an external flash or no flash at all.

    Fortunately it's Android, so someone'll figure out how to get a tweaked reference ROM on there right quick.

    In reply to Canon Adopting dSLR Chips for a New Pro Camcorder?
    CMOS is necessary in order to achieve high MTF (resolution). CCDs just can't handle the data throughput required for full HD, and even using technologies like pixel-shift (where each sensor is offset by less than a pixel from each other) still results in a sub-par MTF for 1080p.


    The use of CMOS in pro HD cameras is not new. Ikegami, a high-end Japanese broadcast camera manufacturer, has been using CMOS for their HD cameras for several years.


    The newly announced <$10k Panasonic AG-HPX305 also uses three CMOS sensors (1/3-inch).

    @LittleJon: Interesting point on the resolution. We do reference the that CMOS is not totally new for medium-high end cameras, but it's a big, big deal for Canon to make the jump in this range.

    it's crazy to see how the transition from film, to dSLR, to HD video in dSLR has come (we didn't even stop for standard def in dSLR's for crying out loud) all in less than about a decade.
