The new Canon 5D announce on August

[uaiomex]

Thanks so much again Ron.
Definitively I have to wait for Fotokina or August 18th, whichever comes first. (not chronologically of course)

No problem.

For the record, I think it's easier to see differences between these cameras on a computer screen than in print. That is my experience, anyway.

No need to wait tail Photokina, Canon going to announce at Hong Kong for their new 5D replacement, the CMOS will be 16MP and most features same as 40D.

The 1Ds Mk3 going to 50MP soon.

We'll need new lenses.  What's in R&D in this area?

I wouldn't get too excited. I think the previous poster was indicating that Canon will actually fix the 1DsIII so that it can auto-focus objects moving at up to 50MPh (the poster must have dropped the 'h') instead of front focussing anything faster than walking pace.

If we get new lenses, then we'll still need an AA filter. 50mp with current lenses can still produce better results.

One feature I'd really like to see is "Composition Mode" maube replacing the Print button I guess. Composition mode would be where you shoot and are able to review the pics, and then decide if you want to keep them or not, it would maybe have a buffer of maybe 3-5 shots.

I shoot a lot tethered using C1 Pro and always use the "Composition Mode" to get lighting values correct, before actually saving images, this enables you to shoot and check the image, adjust, get everything dialed in, then switch to normal shooting once everything is setup and looking good.

It may be a long shot and something not considered before, but it would be a great feature. I realise it is easy to just scroll back and delete shots in camera, but sometimes this can slip the mind and confuse you when you dow nload and view the images. Having an easy to access switchable mode would be great, and with the option of keeping the last few shots and writing them to the card would be fairly simple I'd imagine.

Other than that, looking forward to a new release of the 5D, I can't see it being even close to the 40D, its gotta sit pretty close to the 1D3S in specs, regardless of price, as it did when it was first released, bring it.
