I believe the Hassy has been released, too, but I may be wrong on that. Of course, they are a bit more expensive than the Canon, about $10,000US... -- Skip Middleton http://www.shadowcatcherimagery.com |

Since the 1Ds Mark II has only been on the market for about half a year I would be surprised if they replaced it in the next 4 to 6 months. The other thing that is not clear is what all improvements that might make on the next model, the number of pixels is only part of what make a good camera. For example it would be very nice if they made a camera with all the capabilities of the 1Ds Mark II but was not quite as huge, or maybe add in a live preview mode, or image stabilization build it to the camera. The points is that one should not just look at the number of pixels as being what makes a good camera. My guess is we will see Canon address some of this other issues in the next 1Ds model, and we may or may not see an increase in the number of pixels. Scott |

If 16.7 MP is enough for your photography, why would it matter if Canon brought out a model with more pixels? |

For some reason, I read "Canon" as "anyone." The likelihood of Canon
introducing a camera with more than 16.7 mp is pretty slim, it's still fairly new on the market. As far as introducing a camera with slightly fewer pixels, but at a lower cost, that remains to be seen, but it's a hot one on the grapevine, right now... -- Skip Middleton http://www.shadowcatcherimagery.com |

Again the live preview, which isn't offered in any dSLR, and for a reason too! It can't be done, I guess people really want a EVF like a gloried Canon Pro1 |

There's a gap from 8mp to 16mp that the D2X sits in, at the price point of Canon's 8mp. A 12mp sensor at that price point would be a good competitor for the D2X, particularly at a 1.3ish factor.

The 20Da has a focus assist live view only during exposure. This is for astro photography which can have exposures in the hours. |
