1.3, very good viewing angle, still offer " air feel " and in the same time, 1.3x advantage for tele/sport .. much better noise control and angle then 1.6 or 2.0 crop ...
Also, u get great picture, since you are using the best 60% area of lens!!!
Anyway, Daimo, more and more rumor for the Canon 3D.. coming next Summer ..
As this 1D4 is more or less target to the winter game, the 3D would be another new FF sensor!!
I suspect Canon is putting a new FF sensor ( ~ 16-18MP ) into the 7D body/spec ..
I don't know how well the metering is going to be compare to before (Excluding 7D), which mean it should understand color just like the Nikon..! And Nikon Color matrix II Metering is better than the original 5Dm2 or 1DsM3....!
Not a bad camera to add into someone who already have a FF. =P
Um .. I agree Nikon Metering system is better then Canon in general .. ( even last 20 or 30 yr ) but 1D series metering is very good as well, no matter 1D2/1D3/1DsIII etc .. if not better, I will say as good as Nikon ..
But for lower end Canon, such as 40D/50D/5D/5DII etc .. metering isn't that great .. include TTL ...
I wonder how 1005 zones and 63 zones works.. I am sure they are based on different way ..
