Sākusies spekulācija ar jauno Canon 5D pēcteci. Oficiālās informācijas nav, tādēļ šo pagaidām uzskatīsim par baumām. Daudzi fotogrāfi gaida jaunu modeli un daži pat pamanījušies pāriet no Canon sistēmas uz Nikon, jo nav atraduši piemērotu modeli savām vajadzībām. Personīgi domāju, ka jaunais 5D II parādīsies tikai augustā (ja būs tāds pēctecis), bet varbūt arī piepildīsies jaunās baumas.

Dpreview forumā tika publicēta šāda informācija:

The new 5D II will not be released at Photokina, but instead will be a surprise announcement on April 22, according to a source I am unwilling to disclose.

The specs of the new camera are as follows (final name unavailable):
