The comments are much more interesting than the specs. BTW, that is one ugly assed backside .
Agreed. Its a poor design both aesthetically and practically. That rear layout could have a much larger lcd screen if it weren't for the space taken by the card slots. Interestingly has CF(+CFast) slots, where Nikon seem to be moving away from that format
Dunno, they'd have probably known about both of them for a while now, but i cant see them cobbling it together quickly over a few months, thats just asking for trouble.Is it a knee jerk reaction to the D5 they will probably have known something about the D5 for a while.
Wonder what their answer to the D500 will be.Dunno, they'd have probably known about both of them for a while now, but i cant see them cobbling it together quickly over a few months, thats just asking for trouble.

I think we're talking about two different cameras here. My point was aimed at the original posting about new aps-c frame that Canon are releasing in answer to the D500. Perhaps the LCD screens are the same size, but that doesn't take away the fact that the card slot door takes up way too much space on the rear of the frame. If they had placed the card slots in a similar way to a Nikon frame what more could they have got out of that space?Nikon's D5 comes in two flavors: one with CF and one that takes XQD. The LCD screens on both the new Canon and D5 are the same size

Oh, sorry. Though, you never mentioned the D500 in any of your posts and the OP posted a link to the new Canon EOS 1DX, a full frame camera and direct competitor to the D5.
