The camera gets an overall score of 60. As usual we anticipate the final verdict:
You have a reflex-quality sensor in camera of the same volume as a G11.
You can use this camera even under relatively difficult conditions.
If you’re an amateur photographer, this camera can satisfy pretty much all of your needs (especially if you want to take great family photos, for example). If you’re a professional photographer, this can be a good backup camera.
The latest rumor about some basic specs of the highly anticipated Canon 5D Mark III comes from the Facebook fan page of an imaging accessory company. Nothing really new: 22 Mpix and 7.5 fps. They say: «Info direct from canon».

Since theAperture Academy blogmade its post about the Canon 200-400mm and 600mm prototype lens and a mysterious Canon body, there has been a lot of speculation about what this body could be. The 5D Mark III, the 7D Mark II, or maybe a totally new camera that Canon has developed? Canon 5D X, Canon 6D, and so on. Let your imagination run freely.
Let’s have a look at the mostrevealing of the pictures published on theAA blog. The person using the equipment is supposed to be a Canon employee doing some field-testing of the lens prototypes, and of the apparently totally new camera body.
A new kid on the block?
We have some considerations.
It’s clearly a body of the size of a 5D or 7D with an attached battery grip and there is no build-in flash.
The battery grip seems to have a joystick.
The display looks like it has a 16:9 format
Stephen Oachs, the author of the post, writes: «I see the “Q” button located by the big wheel on the right, which on the 7D is currently located on the top left». In other words, there is one thing that can be assumed to be true: this is a Canon body we have not seen before.
