what's the reason then for handing out pre-prodcution bodies ? Allowing reviews without images being shown is rather silly.Originally Posted by Axel Hildebrandt
I like this example...that guy got a mark IV to test, but with a glued CF slot.....isn't that weird!?

Doesn't make you feel postive about it......that being said, I have one on order ... ;-)
Who knows, maybe they do release the information in increments to keep people interested.
I dont understand why he didn't just download them with the cable, you dont need to take the card out then.
They do it to create buzz around a product. Canon's no Apple where in product launches are held secret until the last moment.
Canon also has its work cut out for the 1D line. The autofocus flaw gave the 1d3 a bad reputation. Sure not all bodies were affected and it was shortly rectified but the memory of it is still there.
I just wish Canon & Nikon would ship products within the week of announcement rather than making us wait until the December and January come around.
I've been waiting for over a year for the 1D3 replacement and I just hope my connections with Canon Philippines will allow me to get the first batch that will arrive in the country.
I'm guessing the D3S had something to do with the withdrawal. I do hope that Canon figures a way to at least match the ISO noise processing of the D3S. This statement is based on the assumption that a larger frame sensor with bigger pixels will have lesser ISO noise.
Where? I have been looking for it
