I think what I’m most excited about with this new camera is that Canon didn’t get caught up in the pixel count contest but finally decided on enlarging the pixel size instead. 18 Megapixels is plenty for just about any purpose and the increase in pixel size will help a lot with low light photography and hdr. I’ve blogged about this a bit here: http://www.sensoryescapeimages.com/blog/2012/1/5/canon-announces-the-new-flagship-model-canon-eos-1dx-dslr-pr.html
