Development Announcement?4 j6 ~$ J7 `* k$ ?/ y h
I’m told it’s possible we’ll see an “in development” announcement sometime in 2012 for a large megapixel DSLR from Canon. I have heard both 39mp and 46mp prototype(s) are out in the field. : Q, G7 r' H- g8 ~) x/ v ; |/ @& e; F; s9 d% nIn development announcements seem to be getting more popular with Canon and their high end products. As we’ve seen from the EOS-1D C and EF 200-400 f/4L IS 1.4X, it seems to allow them a lot of latitude in testing and helps with public relations. It also stops sites like this speculating on arrival of new products. :)! h7 `) X1 [! W: m6 `! d; }
