It looks like the Canon 1D mark II may arrive next week and we appear to have an early leak of the images and specs from the pretty reliable Digicame-info. The purported specs are listed below with a rough translation from DCI’s Japanese site.
Canon 1D X Mark II Spec List
- 20.2MP CMOS sensor with improved dynamic range
- Dual Pixel CMOS AF

- AF at f/8 is possible on all 61 AF points.
- Improved AF accuracy and motion tracking with AI Servo AF III

- 4K video at 60fps
- CFast2.0 memory card use
- 16fps capture in live view mode
- Built-in GPS

When I first saw these images, I was curious about the line around the top of the camera; however, after seeing the built-in GPS in the spec list, I’m convinced the line is a result of the GPS capability.
One way or the other, we should know more next week. Stay tuned.
