Mysterious new teaser on Canon web site...

Here you go!

5D replacement? New 1D series?

Now this is getting silly. The "anticipation" cow has been milked dry over the last 12 months.

You really have nothing better to do than follow Canon Rumors do you?

I doubt a 5D will have a grip like that..probably a new 1D.

that looks like every grip on canon...

Maybe Canon finally figured out that the G9 needs a grip.

Obviously. However, the 1DIII replacement should be due out soon as well.

They're typically not photographed together.

Boy, what a poorly-taken photo...it's so underexposed! I can't believe Canon would even put that on their website. The light to the left doesn't have enough juice to properly light the camera.

Look where the flash is - doesn't look like there is built in flash, and kinda has that 5D look to it.

Comparison

Adjusting the levels in Photoshop, it is clearer that there are indeed 4 buttons on the left. (right side of camera) Seeing as the 5D currently has 4 buttons, it looks to be the 5D successor!!! Additionally, you can see the blurry-grey part makes it look like it's not a full-size body. (1D-series)

Woohoo!
