But does it really surprise you? This is just one of many signs that Canon is moving more and more towards video.

This is just one of many signs that Canon is moving more and more towards video. Super strong AA-filters in all DSLRs, lenses made exclusively for video, sensors exclusively for video, EOS bodies designed for video, and loads of R&D money "wasted" in video features - stuff that most of us don't even care about. Sure, the R&D on video might not be a "waste" for everyone, but for me as a still photographer, it is nothing but a big fat waste. Dear Canon. How about giving us an update on the big MP sensor? You know, the one that we photographers are waiting for. -End of my pointless rant- I'd high five you if I could, but for now: +1 Sony A7R * 70-200 2.8L II * 24-70L II * Samyang 14

Mar 04, 2013 12:35 | #7 does this give anyone a glimmer of hope that there will be some type of trickle down or cross over from what they have done here that to a new type of Photo sensor for us? ---------------Camera, Lens, Flash stuff.. but still wanting more

Next time I want to buy a camera I'll run it by you to make sure it's alright.  Which is why I joined a photography forum, no a video forum http://natureimmortal.blogspot.com

Okay, maybe they release a couple less cameras a year, but they stay profitable with money to devote to R+D. DarthVader wrote in post #15679827 Still photography will merge into videography slowly. I don't think so. We've had both mediums for almost 100 years now and they both still have their place. There's something about a well-composed frozen frame in time that video cannot duplicate. And I don't think very many people are hip to trying to sort frames out of high res video. Taylor
