The rumors are FLYIN' over a the Canon forum on DPreview! There's a thread that this new cam may signal the DEATH of the prosumer camera as we know it (at least in Canons case) apparently there's more money to be made in LENSES these days and those prosumer fixed lens cams are no longer the bread & butter the used to be! Over there in ALOT of the forums...they get so caught up in the tech aspects of a a camera...almost to obsession! Some fun reads! The 5D is not even out yet (for sale) and some are rippin it up! Go figure!??!
