"Don't know it it's 10 bit out of HD-SDI or not, but that sounds a lot like th XF305!"

Exactly. Heck, even the XF 105 has 50mbp, 4:2:2 SDI genlock/time code - and that goes for $4,000 (and has a lens to boot).

Strap a 16mp S35 sensor in that camera for $4K and you're rocking like Don Dokken.

Only a few more hours to post our nutty predictions, projections, speculations, fears, and dreams in this thread. The new thread will be mostly about ...reality.

Of course, there's always that gap between announcement/demo/specs and getting the new cam into users' hands, so there will still likely be some groping - and likely some complaining - in the new thread.

Let me get one complaint out of the way... It costs too much - and I don't even know the price yet. ;)

It's also missing that one feature that is absolutely critical to my filmmaking process. I can't believe Canon would release it that way! If they don't start listening to what the market is demanding they'll be out of business soon...

Re: Something new from Canon on Nov. 3rd...

It's interesting to note how many of us are cruising here to await the announcement.

It's a new era for product launching for sure.

They tell us the date (but rarely the time) and leave it to the "market" to determine which portals we go to to keep informed.

No central "live streaming" place for breaking tech news as yet. (that's probably a market opportunity for someone, tho it would be a nightmare with bandwidth spikes that size!)

So we check in, again and again and again in multiple places to satisfy our curiosity.

It's also interesting that NONE of the places I check are directly associated with the one company that could manage everything - CANON. I went on their web site this morning, and left in seconds realizing that there is NOTHING agile or breaking news oriented about it. Even mighty Apple, has to essentially put their web site "on hold" during breaking announcements, and re-deploy it when the official "go" command is given. It is a brave new "news" world out there with so much fragmentation that we don't have a clue who to trust to both "get it first" AND "get it right." (The thing in my mind that makes what SHOULD be the "breaking news focus" channel - Twitter - nearly useless - way too much noise, not nearly enough signal.)

Interesting.

This is kind of exciting. I'm also a bit surprised at all the details that are being leaked. I know they could all be way wrong but it sure has been fun to surf around and read em'.

Well, if they're not true, then they're not details - just rumors. I'm not sure anything has truly been leaked from Canon. There has been a lot of speculation, that's for sure.

Re: Something new from Canon on Nov. 3rd...

It's Friday 4th Nov. here in NZ as well. This is like the Y2K Bug and the end of the world announcements. Nothing happening. The suspense is killing me!
