Canon 5D - put up or shut...

Ok, time to have some fun in this group. We've all seen the threads
about the supposed pending announcement of the Canon 5D. For purely
entertainment value, lets keep a running total of who thinks its real,
and who doesn't.

For terms of scoring, "yes its real" will be evaluated on the following
criteria:
1. An announcement by Canon of a 5D before the end of August.
2. The 5D is full frame.
3. The 5D has ~ 12mp resolution, +/- 2 megapixels.

Post a reply to this message, with a "Yes i think its real" or "No i
thinks its bogus" before Friday, August 20th, 11:59pm EST.

For starters, I'll say "No i think its bogus".

PS I'm being generous with the +/- 2 mps.

Yes i think its real

Someone already mentioned much eariler this year in this group that
there would be a middle of the line model and it'd a full frame camera
coming. Use google to look it up? It would be interesting if you had
raised this question at that time. Now, we're just waiting for the
offical announcement as we all [should] know it's true, along with 1D MK
II N, 430EX flash and a 24-105/4L IS lens.

I'm willing to go out on a limb and say we'll see a 5D with those specs
around the release date.

hrm... maybe i'm not following this group as closely as i should...

i'm still somewhat skeptical. a 5d maybe, but full frame?

i'd hate to be the only loser of my own thread.

put me down for yes. Not because I believe it, but because I want to believe
it.

Is it all right to use punctuation, etc.?

IAE, I'll guess "Yes" [59.55% probable, to be exact.]

It is genuine.


[Note, I didn't say "I think it is genuine". That is because I know
that it is genuine.]
