These are the leaked specifications of the new Canon cameras, the powerful 5D Mark II and, somewhat the more humble, Canon 50D. Both dSLR cameras would be displayed or announced at the Photokina in late September.

The Canon 5D Mark II will have a 16.7 MP resolution sensor and a Full Frame, a single DIGIC III image processor, sensitivity of ISO 100 to 3200 (is 50 and may force until 6400), a 3-inch OLED screen , EF mount lenses (not to be confused with EF-S), 11 auto focus points, 35 areas of measurement, a speed capture of between 6 and 8 frames per second depending on the grip, the OVF has a coverage of 96% with an increase of 0.72, and promises a better seal against inclement weather

The “small” Canon 50D shares the specifications of his sister, except that its sensor is smaller (APS-C), reaches its maximum resolution 12.2 MP, has mount EF and EF-S, and its coverage has OVF 100% with an increase of 0.95. Finally the two chambers will have options kits with lenses 24-70mm f/2.8L IS and 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 IS.
