No, but since we can't know how they think inside Canon's corporate dungeons, the list made by Perfect_10 is - perfect...

According to Wikipedia ...
Rebels (xxxxD and xxxD bodies) are classed as entry level / consumer
xxD (40D, 50D, 60D bodies) are advanced amateur / mid range
xD (7D, 5D, 5DII, 5DIII bodies) are prosumer / high-end
xD (1 series bodies) are professional / flagship

So to answer the OP's question ... 7D, 5D, 5DII, and 5DIII are the prosumer cameras.

And the people who buy the 'Prosumer' bodies must therefore be the ones Canon are aiming their marketing at.


EOS 5D MkIII, EOS 70D, EOS 650D, EOS M, Canon 24-70 f2.8L MkII, Canon 70-200 f2.8L IS MkII, Canon 100 f2.8L Macro, Canon 17-40 f4L IS, Canon 24-105 f4L IS, Canon 300 f4L IS, Canon 85 f1.8, Canon 50 f1.4, Canon 40 f2.8 STM, Canon 35 f2, Sigma 150-500 OS, Tamron 18-270 PZD, Tamron 28-300 VC, 580EX II Flash, Nissin Di866 MkII Flash, Sigma EM 140 Macro Flash and other bits.
