Default Next Full Frame camera?
Any guesses (educated or otherwise) about when and how much the next full frame body will come out from Canon? I love my XT for it's compact size (and the sigma 10-20 is a great solution to the crop factor at the wide angle end), but the more I use it the more I realize there are times I wish I had a larger frame/viewfinder to work with.

Even if a new FF body is a pro oriented, expensive model, maybe it will drive the 5D prices down so I can pick one up used

The only possible full frame on the horizon IMHO is a 1DS MkII-N...
Same specs at the current 1DS.. just with the "N" feature upgrade.. (bigger LCD etc.)

Other than that, How many full frame Cameras are we expecting Canon to feild at once?

beachcamera says they will have it in 5 days (their web site says ships in 7 days). That makes it Tuesday next week. But others may have it sooner.

Hmm, I have been wondering the same thing. I was hoping it be an upgraded 5D rather than an upgraded 1D. I love my 20D, but sure would love to also own a FF body.

I didn't say what year! (But hey, the 31st would be OK with me.)
