It is three years after Canon released Canon 5D Mark II, and now it is to be refreshed. There are already rumors saying that the new camera will be Canon EOS 6D or 5D Mark III, and there are also speculations that it will be released on November 3, 2011.
It has been three years after Canon released its first camera in the EOS line named Canon 5D Mark II, a 21.1-megapixel full-frame CMOS digital single-lens reflex camera made to provide video recording functions (record full HD video at 1920 × 1080 and SDTV at 640 × 480 resolution).
But unfortunately, there are also drawbacks that still photography during video recording is possible, but the camera suspends recording video until the final still frame is captured, this maybe the main dissatisfaction for professional photographers, especially photo journalists.
And it lacks both the speed and enhanced functionality of the newer APS-C format EOS 7D, and the rugged construction and almost infinite customization of Canon’s professional EOS 1D series.
Because of the above mentioned fallbacks people expect a new brand new Canon camera to be released to bring some new features and there are already rumors predicted that the new camera will be released on November 3, 2011 and will be named Canon 6D or 5D Mark III.
Whatever rumors, there is one thing for sure that Canon will enhance the video feature for the EOS 5D MK III or EOS 6D. A key change is likely to be an extension in the range of frames rates that are available at full resolution. Full 1080p at 60fps seems a safe bet. And below are the speculations that what the features of Canon 6D or 5D Mark III will be:
10 will-be features of Canon 6D or 5D Mark III
1. 24MP sensor
Canon doesn’t have a camera with a 24 million pixel sensor yet, perhaps the EOS 6D see the company step over the current 21 million pixel threshold.
