Canon EOS 7D Mark II in the works?

Earlier, we reported that Canon is rumored to release three new DSLR cameras this year , and we think that one of those will be the 7D’s successor. Now, CanonRumors may have some insider info on what the internals of Canon EOS 7D Mark II will be.

CanonRumors reports that they’ve received a tip from an anonymous informant about the specs of the upcoming successor of the Canon EOS 7D which is temporarily dubbed as 7D Mark II. Here are some of the info they’ve got:

• 24.1mp APS-C Sensor
• Dual DIGIC 5
• 10 frames-per-second
• Dual Memory Card Slots (CF + SD perhaps)
• 61 Autofocus Points
• 3.2? LCD (probably 1,024K dot, our opinion)
• Build quality like 5D Mark III
• GPS & Wifi
• ISO Performance to get close to the 5D Mark III

In addition to the info written above, the upcoming 7D Mark II is said to be released with a USD2,199 price tag, which is USD500 pricier than the 7D when it was first launched back in 2009. The rumored camera is also believed to possess a handful of video features to cater to film makers.

Canon remains mum about the topic, so do take this with the usual grain of salt. But if this rumor turns out to be true, then it’ll be a worthy successor to the famous upper mid-range dSLR camera.

Canon to unveil 3 DSLR cameras this year

CanonRumors reports that they just got a tip from a “very reliable source” that the Japanese imaging giant is brewing up three DSLR cameras this year.


Canon 7D

Two of these cameras are said to be under the entry-level category; 70D and a Rebel (700D). Although we agree with their first guess, we’d like to think that the other camera would be a refresher of the 2-year old 1100D. The rationale for our hypothesis is that Canon would want their entry-level offering to be in the same playing field as the Nikon D3200. Here’s a chart to show you the difference between the 1100D and D3200 in terms of specs:

The other camera that is said to make its debut this year is the 7D Mark II. This also makes sense, considering that the camera is turning 3 years old this year. If this is true, then we may expect better processor and sensor under the hood, higher focus point number, better display, higher ISO range and maybe CF/SD capability.

EOS M

Apart from the three DSLR cameras, Canon is also rumored to release a revamped version of their mirrorless camera – EOS M. Although there’s not much known about the immediate successor, we can probably expect Canon to fix some of the gripes that the MILC has such as its incredibly slow AF capabilities.
