Message: <blockquote data-quote="Chosun Juan" data-source="post: 3807725" data-attributes="member: 92780">An interesting rumour from Canon Rumours suggesting (the very un-Canon-like) rationalisation of their APS-C  DSLR  lines by combining somewhat the 80D and the 7DII to make the 7DIII. Presumably then they combine the old 77D and 80D into some sort of suceeding mid-range offering.<a href="https://www.canonrumors.com/aps-c-dslr-lineup-to-get-a-shake-up-cr1/" target="_blank">https://www.canonrumors.com/aps-c-dslr-lineup-to-get-a-shake-up-cr1/</a>This is interesting in the light of earlier 80D successor rumours predicting around ~30MP.  It would quite the feat to have this accurately track at 10fps with a practically unlimited RAW buffer, needing a step up in processing power and latent information pipelines.  Still with the flagship IDX III due for the Olympics, perhaps this computing architecture has already been nailed down and will be inherited by 'little brother'  7DIII ....... we can only hope  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />  ...... it might be half a chance of competing with Nikon's D500 (or likely D500S that will lob next year following the Big Kahuna  D6).In some ways this very un-Canon-like rationalisation actually makes sense to me as part of the long term transition to Mirrorless  (whatever that eventually ends up looking like in APS-C form).Chosun   :gh:</blockquote>
