Sounds like prime time to pick up a 2nd 5dMKII after this event.

I'm tempted to sell mine. If the 5diii has 1080p @ 60fps

Honest (but perhaps stupid) question, why is 60fps a benefit over 24/30fps in video?

Slow motion shots

60fps is barely noticeable. I want 120fps like the red! or perhaps 1200 FPS like the casio! (in HD, but that's impossible)

canonrumors.com says its nothing to do with photography, and everything to do with cinematography

DSLRs shoot video now. I'm guessing / hoping they do show off some stuff

 

[finbarqs]

they do, but they're putting their bets on a strictly camcorder

I really want to see some announcements from Canon & Nikon.

Now that I have a use for a better camera and some money to devote to it, I am looking to replace my 300D. However, since I don't have a lot of expensive Canon lenses and my 300D is really old, I have been looking towards switching to Sony.

Hopefully the other guys will give me some info.

Its quite like the 5D2 teaser. Coiuld be 5D3 with 2k 4:2:2 and 120fps.

As to canon rumour, wtf do they know?

Yeah that place is a mess.

 

[finbarqs]

they know quite a bit actually. A lot of rumors (CR2's are almost a sure hit) have originated from Canonrumors that came true! Like this event that they announced!

 

[ElFenix]

hollywood? red carpet? EF movie camera?

 

[finbarqs]

i'm betting it's going to be an EF+PL 2K Raw camera.

hollywood? red carpet? EF movie camera?

that's my guess. Seems there's another invite event going on this month on the 22nd. Seems far more camera related since digitalrev supposedly got invited.

If they did that, I would ditch my RED Scarlet plans :awe:

 

[finbarqs]

hopefully with a 3 Chip CCD sensor... No more jelly cam!

 

[Asane]

Ooh sounds exciting.

 

[finbarqs]

ah ha! I told you so!

No 5DMKIII yet?!?
