Continuity error? Wasn't the M2 not released in the US?

My girlfriend's mother asked me about my Canon gear the other evening at dinner, and wanted to know about buying DSLRs. I offered to help her decide on a model when she was ready to buy. Last night I found the box for her brand new T5.

When people ask for advice 99% of the time they just want validation for whatever purchase they were already planning on making.

The 5DS cameras have also been officially announced. No info who's making the sensor. --edit: Word is designed by Canon, manufactured by Sony. Combat Pretzel fucked around with this message at 20:34 on Feb 5, 2015 |

I thought I read somewhere that the 750 is the rebel upgrade, and 760 is more like the XXD line.

Yeah that top LCD has been an XXD feature in the past, not a Rebel feature, right?

So I guess every last bit of that "weird list of made up features" for the 5Ds turned out to be true. The sample images they're posting on the canon website looks great, although they're all in jpeg and nothing above 800 ISO. I am torn. I would like more dynamic range/sensitivity for weddings, but I'm also doing more and more product photography these days so this camera could be perfect for that. BUT I would like to see how the 5Div performs in terms of low light.

I am so confused by the 5DS/5DSR announcement... can somebody please explain it to me? I'm a 5D MkII user who was waiting for the camera that would warrant an upgrade. Now I'm half contemplating making the jump to a mirrorless body. Canon is really confusing me with their direction. low light performance/sensitivity is a big big deal for me as well, which is what makes some of the new mirrorless (a7s) offerings so appealing.

The 5DR doesn't have the low pass filter so it'll be sharper.

1st AD posted:The 5DR doesn't have the low pass filter so it'll be sharper. why for the first time ever is Canon deciding it's worth offering two options that are so incredibly similar? Is it just so specialized for studio use that that chance of moire is worth muddying their product offerings? Because if the 5DS is truly geared towards studio/tripod use then maybe it's not for me.

Why is this such a problem for you? Nikon did the same thing with the D800...either take the one without the OLPF and get a sharper camera at the expense of maybe having moire, or don't? This doesn't muddy their product lines at all. I'm not even a fan of Canon in general but it seems like a weird thing to complain about.

Canon has just sort of been confusing me recently and I figured this was the thread to ask for some clarity.

It's for people doing commercial photography who don't want to make the jump to medium format but still need a high resolution camera. Basically Canon's answer to the D800, just 4 years delayed.

It doesn't really help give me much faith in Canon though at this point. I don't know why I should continue to invest thousands into lenses and bodies for a company that hasn't truly innovated in years.

Yeah and the word is that the 5Ds is, as was predicted by some in this thread, just a scaled up 7Dii sensor, with the same DR as the 5D iii. That sucks.

Given they've now also split the 700D in to both a 750D and a 760D, they'll be selling 12 different bodies. They've clearly misunderstood the desperate pleas to "copy Sony".

Those who want more AF and ISO would probably have to wait for the 5D4.

Also the first one did very poorly so that must mean murikans don't want mirrorless right?

As someone looking to buy his first DSLR, is it a bad idea to buy a 700D/T5i, even though the new rebels have been announced? I was looking at the 700d for a while and decided it's the right one, and now I'm torn... I think I probably don't need any of the new features, id rather go with better optics. Any advice/opinions? Also, how much do you expect the price to drop on the previous models, and when?

What I'm still really curious about is the 1.3 and 1.6 crop modes. Since it's confirmed now that there no change to FPS, ISO, or AF in these modes why would anyone use them and what kind of shooter are they intended for?

IIRC, I bought my 650D about a month before the 700D was released, and got it for almost $200 cheaper. Wait for the 700D to go on clearance, and spend what you saved on a nifty 50 or shorty 40.

ohay, if Ken Rockwell says so it must be true: "The Canon EOS 5DS and 5DS R are the world's best digital SLRs, replacing the old 5D Mark III of 2012. The 5D Mk III was the world's best DSLR, and now these new 5DS are the world's best."

It means that what could have been a good idea is now a useless idea. It will only serve as marketing hype to people who don't understand the flexible nature of resolution and cropping. What bothers me is that this camera could have been REALLY great; imagine a 50mp FF with good DR and the ability to switch around crop modes with all the added benefits that brings (essentially a switch that gives you faster fps, AF, better ISO sensitivity and longer reach for when you're on the move)
