We all know that the world simply can't exist much longer unless Canon
updates the 5D, which is, God forbid, three years old, but this thread
really takes the cake:

Amazingly how many people swallowed this thing hook, line, and sinker.

Take it with a pinch of salt.  Unfortunately, everyone will have to wait for
the press release to know the real deal because Canon are so secretive with
new models.  There's more chance of getting blood out of a stone.

It will be interesting though to see what the 5D replacement has to offer,
mainly because of the Nikon D3.  On the other hand, the 5D replacement can't
really be in competition with the 1DS III, because it just doesn't make
sense.  Personally, I think that it will have good specs, but I doubt it
will be weather sealed, unless they want to take on the D3 with it.

Uh, that thread was started as a joke, but too many just missed it. Did you
read the first message all the way through?

It will still be a Canon... poor ergonomics, sketchy optics, over processed
images.

Yeah, but do you think it will include Photoshop Lite and Auto Pilot?
