I have heard both 39mp and 46mp prototype(s) are out in the field. ' ^ D( W- ^5 A; W# ^3 D$ A; q8 \6 ^! w+ Z% y+ @
In development announcements seem to be getting more popular with Canon and their high end products. As we’ve seen from the EOS-1D C and EF 200-400 f/4L IS 1.4X, it seems to allow them a lot of latitude in testing and helps with public relations. It also stops sites like this speculating on arrival of new products. :)! k0 \+ N) d: @1 Y8 F5 L

Another suggestion that the Canon EOS 6D will be announced soon. It might be announced on a different day than the PowerShot and Pixma announcements early next week. : o0 T3 ~( _8 U9 M( b7 s; V! {) u" |4 t0 A! z
