Rumors Of The Canon 7D And 60D Coming Soon

 August 22, 2009 @ 12:09 PM (EST)

Rumors have been flying lately about the imminent release of the Canon EOS-7D and/or a Canon 60D.

The 7D is rumored to be a lower end companion to the popular EOS-5D Mark II. Specs floating around online seems to conclude 18mp, 8 fps, 19 AF Points, 1080p HD video.

Canon EOS-7DWhen Canon announced the G11, S90 and other new powershot cameras last week, apparently Best Buy also had the EOS-7D listed as an item in their retail system, complete with a UPC number and a price of $2,699.99. Was it a mistake? A leak?

It does seem like Canon's release cycle has about come due and a Canon 7D would be welcome by most photographers...except for underwater photographers who are just getting used to the 5D Mk II.

Apparently Canon is holding a press conference on Sept 1st. Let's see what happens!

Why would a "lower end companion" have the same price tag as the 5dII? The T1i is a lower end companion. It's already on the shelves. What canon needs to do is team up with its own pro-camcorder division and produce a true pro-model dslr that is ALSO a kick-ass cinema camera. But Canon won't. Instead, it will be scooped by an american sunglass company, then it will come out with a competing product two years from now. Whatever. Meanwhile Nikon will probably team up with Sony and produce an EX4.
