[UPDATE 2]New canon products 5Ds and 5DsR unveiled

[Bsmith]

*UPDATE 2*

it's official, the 5Ds and 5Dr are out!

the s in 5Ds stands for studio(as guessed by many people) and the 5Dr is actually named the 5DsR, with focus on profesional content creation, withing lowlight range, as showed in this video(see spoiler on the bottom for this update for embedded link) while the video is mostly a canon promo, i must say it looks pretty nice so far i saw it.

the recording funciton's on the DSLR's is letting down a bit, with the traditional canon 1080p@30fps and 720p at 60fps, while being to low for people that want to shoot video with it, don't worry, the 5Dmk4 is still to come and according to various rumors with 4k video recording.

the 5Ds and 5DsR aren't up for pre-order yet, but the price indication's go with $3699 for the 5Ds and $3899 for the 5DsR version, which are quite high prices, even higher then the 5Dmk3 at it's release, which was already above the staggering $3000 price mark, while being mostly focused on studio usage the 5Ds® probarlly won't be as good in wildlife/sport photography, but before we can conclude that, we ahve to wait for the reviews to stream in.

while the specs of the new full frame goodness are already posted below, there isn't much need to repeat them, bt the primary information/specs are here posted again, this time complete and a bit more compact.

source specs

 

while not for pre-order, but with the price's known canon shouldn't wait to long with the release of these device's, which on paper aren't that much more then the 5Dmk3, except for the new processors and the 50+mp sensor, i personally am tempted to dub them 5D mk3.5, since the change won't affect most people.

*UPDATE 1*

prior to the official press event which is held in london UK tomorow(6 februari 2015) there has already been a list with information about it, about's it content and more information of the products they are going to release, altough most of it has already been coverd(see the bottom spoiler) all the information has been posted again, some content is made more clear and/or gives a better idea of what you can expect.

i will try to update it again tomorow, with all the official news and pricetags if possible(if nobody beats me to it)

 

 

*UPDATE*

As some have pointed out on Twitter, there doesn’t appear to be any mention of video features. While I do know the camera will have some video capabilities, that’s not the focus of this camera. I suspect this is a partial press release.

Canon revolutionises resolution with the EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R

London, UK, 6 February 2015 – Canon today transforms the EOS system with the arrival of the EOS 5DS and the EOS 5DS R – a new breed of ultra-high resolution full-frame DSLRs.

 

Breaking the boundaries of 35mm sensors,the new cameras offer the highest megapixels ever seen in a full frame sensor, an astonishing 50.6MP. Delivering unparalleled quality, the cameras provide an exceptional combination of resolution, responsiveness and durability, whether shooting landscapes, architecture, high fashion or portraiture, either personally or professionally. When nothing but the sharpest image is expected, the EOS 5DS R also features a low pass cancellation filter to maximise the sensor’s resolution and visible image quality.Alongside the new DSLRs, Canon also introduces the EF 11-24mm f/4L USM, the world’s widest-angle rectilinear zoom lens(1), the perfect companion for landscape and architecture photographers.

 

Establishing new standards for full-frame DSLRs

Setting a new benchmark for full-frame cameras, the EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R combine fast, instinctive DSLR handling with the newly-developed 50.6MP CMOS sensor, providing the flexibility to shoot a wide range of scenes and subjects, making it ideal for large format mediums, such as advertising billboards and magazine covers, where every pixel matters. The sensor’s advanced architecture provides

ISO 100-6400 sensitivity, further expandable to 50-12800, ensuring high quality images with low noise, accurate colours and wide dynamic range. For added flexibility, the cameras’ resolution enables three new in-camera crop shooting modes–1.3x, 1.6x and 1:1. Visible through the viewfinder, the crop modes deliver outstanding results, with stills at 19 MP even when cropped to 1.6x. Built to withstand the most demanding shoots, the EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R’s dual DIGIC 6 processors provide the rapid performance and responsiveness required to deliver first-class images with exceptional colour reproduction. Both processors are designed to comfortably manage huge levels of image data from the 50.6MP sensor, whilst simultaneously reducing image noise and providing the freedom to shoot at five frames per second.

Automatically exceptional

Created to ensure every detail of your exquisite landscape or high-fashion studio shoot is in focus, the EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS Rfeature an advanced 61-point AF system, with 41 cross-type points, delivering incredible levels of image sharpness and accuracy across the frame. Both cameras comfortably maintain focus with moving subjects, using EOS Intelligent Tracking and Recognition AF (iTR) to track both faces and colour. To reduce image blur, Canon’s Mirror Vibration Control System uses cams to drive the cameras’ mirror up and down in a highly controlled fashion, avoiding all sudden stops and softening the shutter-release sound. Additionally, the EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R’s 150k pixel RGB+IR metering sensor with Flicker Detection ensures images can be captured with consistent and accurate exposures under varying lighting scenarios, including florescent.

 

Incredible detail and unrestricted creativity

Putting unrivalled image quality at your fingertips, the EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R include a number of customisable modes and settings to ensure stunning results every time. A new Fine Detail Picture Style maximises the level of detail that can be achieved from the sensor, enabling advanced sharpness adjustment without the need for edit ing software. Popular creative modes, including Multiple Exposure and HDR, provide instant, in-camera creativity, while a built-in timer allows you to shoot over long periods and create stunning time lapse videos, without being tied to the camera or needing advanced software and excessive kit.

First-class professional construction, customisable features

The EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R have been expertly constructed to allow you to operate quickly, regardless of the environment you’re shooting in. The 100% viewfinder with electronic overlay makes framing vital shots easy and can be customised to your preferred style. The large, 8.11cm (3.2”) Clear View II LCD screen, with an anti-reflective structure, minimises reflection or glare when reviewing shots and also acts as a visual and accessible dashboard of the most commonly used settings. The cameras’ new Custom Quick Control screen means that the type, size and position of icons are also easily customisable to the user or shooting scenario. Both cameras utilise Canon’s iconic design DNA–a highly durable body constructed from high-grade magnesium alloy to provide weather resilient shooting – ideal for landscape photographers who are dedicated to getting the perfect shot, whatever the weather.

 

EOS 5DS R: Engineered for the ultimate in DSLR image quality

When nothing but the absolute maximum level of detail possible will do, the EOS 5DS R features a low pass cancellation filter to ensure the sharpest possible results. Great for landscape photographers, where patterns are very often organic, the camera’s low pass cancellation filter produces the stunning level of detail required to turn agreat shot into an incredible shot.

Optical Expertise: Introducing the EF 11-24mm f/4L USM

The EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R are compatible with Canon’s extensive EF lens range, spanning 71 models(2). Today Canon unveils the world’s widest-angle retilinearzoom lens (1), the EF 11-24mm f/4L USM. Perfect for photographers shooting landscape and architecture, the EF 11-24mm f/4L USM is designed to open up an entirely new world of creative opportunities, thanks to its super wide 11-24mm focal range. Boasting a newly designed optical structure, the lens features three aspherical lenses including a ground aspherical element, which maximises image quality and delivers minimal levels of distortion, while the body is rugged and robust enough to be employed in extreme weather conditions.

 

EOS 5DS Key features:

 

    50.6 MP CMOS sensor with dual DIGIC 6 processors

    150K Pixel RGB+IR Metering Sensor

    Up to 5.0 Frames Per Second

    61-point AF

    Cropped Shooting

 

EOS 5DS R also includes:

 

    Low-pass cancellation filter

    Advanced lens coatings guard against ghosting and flare

    Enjoy swift, near-silent AF, with full-time manual override

    Keep shooting even in tough weather conditions

 

so far their new 5D dslr's seem to be the most interesting pieces they are showing off, remember that it are only 2 out of 3 models 5Dr and 5Ds), the third(named 5D mk4) to be later released is supposed to be more alround, while the 5Ds and 5Dr are more focussed on a certain perspective and ultra high resolution's.

the most remarkable so far is that they(canon) havn't said anything about a video function at all, at the moment it is even doubtfull if the new 5D version's contain a video mode, altough removing it would be a huge drawback and very unlikely if we look at the 5D line's past and the modern requirements for DSLR's, the thing i like the most about them is that 3rd party manufactur lenses are able to have their crop-sensor type lenses mounted to a full frame DSLR, which you are able to set to cropped then(if i understood it properlly) this allows for a greater adoption of lenses, altough it kinda sucks that their own crop sensor lenses can't be used due to a plastic/rubber stop at the bottom, which requires more space inside the body, space which isn't availeble on the full frame DSLR's(canon crop sensor: white quare, canon full frame/3rd party crop/full sensor= red dot)

 

the upcoming EF 11-24mm lens seems interesting to, dependant on the price i might pick up one myself, if it promises to be as good as on paper.

 

original content/news, can been seen in this spoiler.

 

there are rumours out already for a while, talking about two new canon 5D models, the 5Ds and 5Dr, which would mean a refresh in their current full frame line-up, which was almost sure to happen since with the release of the 7Dmk2, which is nearly a full frame DSLR already.

Don't worry about the hard words if you aren't in the DSLR/photography world, some of us might also have trouble with one or more, mostly when its translated through a language barrier or two(atleast i do)

about the eos M3 is nothing known yet, the same counts for the new 750D760D/T6i but both of these are also expected to be Anounced on 6 februari.

 

The release of the new 5D models expands the 5D line form 1 device into 3 different device's, there is also supposed to be a 5D mk4, bt that one is expected to be released/anounced later this year, probarlly around august and to feature 4K video recording.

 

the 5Dr and 5Ds version's will be DSLRS with the highest amount of mp crammed into it, their price range is unkown but expected to be $3000-$4000, which sits around the price of the current canon 5D mkIII.

Next purchase confirmed 

I liked using the D800e and its high MP (actually comes in handy) but I wasn't interested in switching systems entirely. This is real nice for me.

[brownninja97]

Well then im sorry 5d mark 2 your days are over.(yes yes i know about the mark 3 but nope)

[Crazy Ginger]

I'm not sure if this news is canon...

Wrong thread

[multifrag]

Canon had such a big leap in HDdslr users, but when you can get Panasonic GH4 for about 1000 pounds which can shoot at 4k... 4000 dollar canon does not seem appealing anymore. As for 50 mpx Canon is starting to get into Hasselblad territory. Not sure if it is very required as it only limits the versatility of the camera. It will perform poorly in low light... Sony A7s can go to ISO409600 and it's a complete package for night photography and video. It will eat the buffer and cards, so not good for sports with 5fps. Seems that 5D will go studio ways like Hasselblad.

yeah witht he 50MP the 5D seems to be more studio orientated, which would be a sad thing for such an alround beast.

altough im personally interested how it will perform in the end, the lower iso lvl might be a choice because of the high resolution, because the sony a&s has 409600 ISo, but common above the 102400(or around that number) it's nearly useless for clean shots.

the thing that scares me the most is that the 5D will be containing 3 type's of models, which might be good for some people, but confusion for the people trying to step up to the prosumer DSLR series, altough i will go for the 5Dmk4 once that comes out, which is supposed to be the true succesor form the 5Dmk3 and be more alround, with said to be(canonrumor, not confirmed) 36.1MP (bit less) and a small focus on lowlight, which might make it the DSLR  with internal 4K recording to compete with sony's A7s.

that(on second thought) would be possible, since canon made a deal with sony on the ground of sensor patents and development, altough it has been silent on that ground since they made the deal.

[That Norwegian Guy]

Looking forward to see if they manage to come out of the stone age with their sensors (low light performance/ dynamic range/ colour depth)

[Nineshadow]

The 750D!

Wooo!!!

Let's have another video like this :

Really, you should watch it. Totally worth it.

 

Oh God Canon, please don't make this the case...again...for like the 2nd time.

[kuddlesworth9419]

I like cameras I just wish they weren't as expensive as they are because I would upgrade to something with more horsepower. At the moment I just have a Nikon D3100. It's served me well. I think it's the lenses that burn most people though.

[bob345]

still no 60fps 1080p video? maybe the will release a 5dC with that finally.

[TroubleKlef]

I've been thirsting for the T6i for awhile now. Supposedly Canon is taking the Rebel series more upscale with the inclusion of a top level LCD and something else I can't remember.

 

Really hoping for the 70d's DPAF sensor. Although I think what we all really want is a Sony sensor. 

[dizmo]

I'm much more interested in the mirrorless offering! Hopefully they sorted out the issues they had with the first one, and make it smaller with a tilty screen.

[Thony]

50mp sensor can't shoot 4K wtf ?! Cmon canon !

Stupid phones are capable of 4K....

[multifrag]

Completely agree with you. The 409600 ISO reasoning was thanks to A7s ability to film with 102400 and have very hard to spot grain. Any camera will have that, but if you have enough head room for the quality it will up for your own choice which to use.

[KirbyTech]

Only thing interesting is the 50mp and the new lens. I will be getting this lens depending on price, but none of the cameras look like they will be the best at anything and the high mp count takes out the low light reducing the all around ability of it. The T6i will hopefully be decent but again they seem to only be improving on photo and not video. That is a decent sized market share they would be losing out on. I remember something like 10%of Canon DSLRs are use only for video (deemed as more than 95% of captures). So that means if they don't up their video they could be losing a good amount of money. Would like to see Canon become better at video as right now nothing is great until you get to the C100 or maybe the 5D Mark iii but it is only good with ML.

[pit5000]

not impressed, want 4K 60fps video in a mirrorless camera and 16-200mm lens with at least F2.0 throughout (i don't care how big it's gonna be)

[lttiscancer]

Welp looks like i'm getting a new lens.

[TroubleKlef]

not impressed, want 4K 60fps video in a mirrorless camera and 16-200mm lens with at least F2.0 throughout (i don't care how big it's gonna be)

 

4K mirrorless would be stupendous but Canon wouldn't like to take away from their Cinema series just yet.

 

 

50mp sensor can't shoot 4K wtf ?! Cmon canon !

Stupid phones are capable of 4K....

 

The camera is more than capable of recording it (perhaps a magic lantern hack later?) but again Canon wants you to buy their C500. and besides, being that it is 50mp, the video quality wouldn't be as good. Something about too many pixels for the camera to read, sampling, and some other jumbo. That's why the Sony A7s has such a low megapixel count in order for it to have full sensor readout while recording. 

[Bsmith]

50mp sensor can't shoot 4K wtf ?! Cmon canon !

they disabled that i think, because of the C500 which came out recently but was able to record in 4k, we have to wait for the 5Dmk4(released later) for 4k video on DSLR.

 

not impressed, want 4K 60fps video in a mirrorless camera and 16-200mm lens with at least F2.0 throughout (i don't care how big it's gonna be)

 

4k 60FPS would be nice, but canon has never really been of 60FPS recording, mostly since the 29,997(or around that) gives the more cinematic effect, where most people aim for with DSLR filming.

a ML hack would make it possible for sure, since the mk4 version is supposed to support 4k video, but has less MP due to the video quality.

 

I thought the pixelation was near awful when you near 6400, and by 12800 it's unusable most of the time.

 

i don't remember exactly what amount, but the a7s was able to take its ISO higher then ussual, i thought philip bloom said that the iso of around 50k was the borderline for it, which is pretty damn high, hopefully the new 5D sensor's are sony or sony incorporated, that would be freaking awesome.

Read this review and you will understand what I mean.

[WelshDdraig]

I knew this was coming, but If I had known it would have been this soon, I would have held off from getting a 700D. But its the same with any electronics, do you get the "best" now (I know the 700D is not the best DSLR (compared to the likes of the 7D mark II/5D Mark III), or do you wait x amount of time to get the next generation.

I was in the same boat as you so I usually research past release dates with common electronics.

 

For example, the iPhone almost always releases in the fall, Galaxy S in the spring, so I looked up past releases for the Rebel line and its usually in the February-March time frame. I then looked up photography expos and there's an event in Japan called CP+ which is in February. Although rumors are rumors, all signs pointed to a new 750d in the coming months. 

[Bsmith]

updated the OP with more recent news, will to give all prices and exact information tomorow, as soon as possible(if nobody beats me to it)

[Victorious Secret]

 

I don't know many people who will benefit from 50MP monsters, but here they are. Taking aim squarely at the D810e, A7S and even the medium format cameras here is Canons high resolution hitter.

 

Its a 5D with more megapixels. Word on the street is that a proper 5D Mark 4 will show up later this year (with 4K video recording in tow) and that this camera is all about the stills. Think of studio shooting, landscapes, stuff like that. I'm intrigued, I can live with a camera like this and still keep my 7D as a backup for high speed related shooting. Curious to get my hands on one of these. 

Canon is also releasing the 5Ds R which lacks a low pass filter for finer detail for 200 dollars more. You can tell they don't care about video recording on this, it isn't even in their press releases. This is largely a stills camera. The 5Ds will be $3699 and the 5Ds R will be $3899.

 

@Slick, perhaps Brandon would love to try one of these out? 

 

 

In addition to the 50.6 megapixel full-frame image sensor and Dual DIGIC 6 Image Processors, both cameras include a 61-Point High Density Reticular AF array including up to 41 cross-type AF points and EOS iTR AF for high precision autofocus. They also include the EOS Scene Detection system featuring a 150,000-pixel RGB+IR 252-zone metering sensor that provides enhanced precision and performance.

 

 

Like the EOS 7D Mark II, the EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R cameras feature an advanced AE system that can detect and compensate for flickering light sources such as sodium vapor lamps that are often used in gymnasiums and natatoriums. When enabled, this anti-flicker system automatically adjusts shutter release timing to help reduce disparities in exposure and color especially during continuous shooting. And new Auto White Balance settings include Ambience Priority and White Priority (for use when shooting under tungsten lighting).

 

 

The EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R cameras feature dual card slots for CF and SD memory cards, including Ultra High Speed (UHS-1) SD cards. Built to last, the cameras also feature a shutter durability rating up to 150,000 cycles, the same as the EOS 5D Mark III.
