Odd numbers then? In any-case maybe i can actually dream of one day owning a 5D now...

or i could just buy more nice lenses for my puny 350D]]>Oct 2nd 2007 11:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/02/canons-eos-7d-gets-its-very-own-upc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/02/canons-eos-7d-gets-its-very-own-upc/ http://www.pbase.com/dlcmh/canon_eos_7d]]>Oct 3rd 2007 12:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/02/canons-eos-7d-gets-its-very-own-upc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/02/canons-eos-7d-gets-its-very-own-upc/
But the 5D is now the oldest camera in Canon's DSLR lineup, so it makes sense that it would get a face lift for March. Speed was the only thing really holding me back from the 5D. I might have to upgrade if it's replaced with something faster...]]>Oct 3rd 2007 1:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/02/canons-eos-7d-gets-its-very-own-upc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/02/canons-eos-7d-gets-its-very-own-upc/
Let me explain. As a photographer I know many people who have been eagerly awaiting the release of an update to the 5D. Many sites and people have called this the 7D. Perhaps Canon is just playing to them, like Apple did in naming the iPhone, because everybody was already calling it that anyway. Personally I figured that the update would be the 5D mk II, but perhaps that designation can only be applied to the top professional 1D series cameras. Canon could implement the increasing numbering system of the double digit and triple digit lines, like the 20, 30, and 40d, or the 300, 350, and 400d, by just jumping up a couple digits, while staying in single digits, while keeping their top PRO line at 1D.

I also went to that site and sent in a request for that entry to be deleted, asking for them to validate it with Canon because it was likely to be fake. Never used that site before, but it said they would review the request. I guess if it stays then it's for real?

I know much of this is speculation, but as I am really needing to update my camera soon (reaching end of shutter life), I live and die by these kind of rumors!!]]>Oct 3rd 2007 2:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/02/canons-eos-7d-gets-its-very-own-upc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/02/canons-eos-7d-gets-its-very-own-upc/
