Next Generation of FF Bodies

[peety3]

Canon seems to overlook the wildlife photographer with the 1Dx. Perhaps there is not enough interest in that field for Canon to pay attention. Wildlife photogs need the camera described above, and we need silent mode. No matter how well the camera performs if your subject runs away when the jackhammer of a shutter goes off you have no pictures to take.

I suspect Canon thinks the 7D2 or 5Ds[R] are more of what the wildlife photographer will buy anyway.

If Canon only considers the roadside vehicle hunting wildlife photographer, then they are right that is all they need.
Sunny bluebird days those bodies are great.
I know that if I set in a blind all morning in the freezing rain I want the reliability of a 1D 's AF system when the special shot presents itself. The 7D II's AF just doesn't perform to the same level.
