5D i co dalej... ?

Albo zrobia system rewolwerowy do szybkiego zmieniania obiektywow i strzelania z biodra.

czyli jak? obiektywy "naboje" ładowane do niezmienianej lufy od tułu? A może cały magazynek obrotowy

Musieliby do tego dorzucić jakiegoś szerpę, przecież ktoś to musi dzwigać

Ok so here's the deal. I drive from MA to NJ (actually a hotel/conference center) wait around a bit get handed an NDA from a product testing group/marketing firm. bla bla bla...wait some more.
All cellphones and cameras (and actually anything metallic) has to be left outside in little trays.
Go into the room get numbered copies of some product sheets. Quick scan Product 3 Canon 5D replacement - no picture. Person walks up to a dais, starts talking and going though products.
Some new P&S from Canon, G10/11/12 something....new FS lens, then "5D replacement" they talk about features, which basically boils down to "more of everything" but not quite what say the 40D has in burst rates. Better ISO, more pixels (more than 12 less than 16), then moves onto another lens and some crap about flashes.

Upon leaving I asked how they got my name and number etc. Registration cards, vendor feedback based on purchases, and clicking that little box that says "share my info with selected partners". In doing a quick check with some of the other people in the room, most were professionals, some were "hobbyists" that "spent much more than average" in the last 2 quarters.

And that is all I have to report, a lot less exciting than I expected, and a lot less exciting then the little mail thing looked like.
They did say they were having about 4 more of these, so if you get it and can go I would...but don't expect much.

These people said that late August very early September was the release date for the "cameras" so it is what it is.


As to colors, the only color was black on the 5D replacement, silver and black for the G whatever...which I didn't really care about.

The new lenses that were talked about don't really interest me as they were some EF-S lenses that would mimic some of the L lenses I have already. It seemed to me that the focus was on "pro-sumer" middle ground stuff. They started talking about market penetration in sub $1000 bodies and sub $1500 kits and gaining market share in the sub $250 P&S market. I never even owned the G series stuff so I don't really know anything about that. They also seemed to imply that the "5D replacement" was not a pro body, and maybe that was always true but I sort of thought of it as an entry level pro body.
They did go over a list of features and how they would compare to Nikon, the D3 and D700. The way they made it seem, the "5D replacement" would be better than a D700 and not quite the D3 but have a much better sensor than the D3. Something to the effect that the "5D replacement" would be more technologically advanced then any other pro-sumer camera on the market. Incorporating technology from the flagship 1D2 Mk III.
One guy asked if it would use a different battery and use different cards. The answer was "Canon is striving to deliver the newest technology to the market, that makes sense." To some that meant that it would be dual card, but no one said that.

The other lesson learned here for me was, it pays to actually fill out all those little cards and create an e-mail, if for nothing else then to check that box, "share your contact info with selected vendors and partners".

CF is dead
BG-511 is dead
Żytnia is dead
5D2 ---> Sensor/Cena Czyni Cuda
AF - ktoś chce servo --> 1Ds3 albo powtórka z rozrywki
EF-S dopiero się rozkręca!!!
Jeśli Canon wyskoczy z $3k za to coś to będzie ciężki sprawdzian lojalności juzerów

Generalnie na miejscu p$o$w$er juzerów kupowałbym bilet do USA i leciał po 1Ds3. Zawiedli -> autofokus... znowu... imho to nie jest oferta dla obecnych 5D juzerów.

IMHO z tego nie wynika dokładnie nic.

Cena juz zaczyna zblizac sie do 7 tys $ - w pln zaczyna sie robic z tego w miare akceptowalna kwota. Po premierach a900 i d3x pewnie jeszcze troche poleci - kto wie czy to nie bedzie niezle wyjscie jesli faktycznie canon wypusci tylko takie 40d z ff.
