Another rumor suggesting the Canon EOS-1D X Mark II might get announced in January. Canon Rumors writes they have been told…

[…] by a couple of people that Canon is gearing up for a “significant” DSLR announcement in January of 2016.

If it is “significant” then it may well be the EOS-1D X Mark II. Not the first mention of a January 2016 announcement, though March 2016 may be a more realistic date. The Canon EOS-1D X Mark II could feature new sensor technology.
