Introducing the revolutionary EOS 3D.
Built from the ground up to represent the new face of digital imaging the EOS 3D will represent a breakthrough in high performance yet affordable photography. Featuring an elegant yet supremely functional design it takes the best of Canon's previous designs and enhances the experience even further. A high performance AF system featuring 27pt of which 11 are x-type down to f/4 while and the centre point is cross-type to f/5.6 and allows AF down to f/11. The AI servo performance has been significantly improved too, exceeding that of the 1D Mk II.
Also Canon proudly brings ECF to the digital era and is greatly enhanced in performance over that found in the Elan 7NE.
However, the true revolution lies in the heart of the camera. Packing an amazing 13.3MP into an APS-H sized sensor the images are processed by a new DIGIC III engine. The next generation DIGIC III Image Processor builds on the legendary abilities of the digic II with double the processing power necessary to deliver unprecedented levels of resolution, speed and dynamic range. Despite the EOS 3D having smaller pixels than the EOS 5D, the DIGIC III provides even greater DR, more accurate colour rendition improved WB and lower noise. ISO 50 and 3200 are now part of the standard ISO settings and ISO 25 and 6400 are now included as an expanded option. Also it further reduces power consumption allowing class leading battery performance.
Thanks to DIGIC III the EOS 3D also boasts an impressive burst rate of 6fps for 18 shots in RAW and 40 in jpg.
In addition the body adds several sealing gaskets to the all magnesium shell allowing for operation in more extreme environments. A new evaluative algorithm allows more accurate metering in extreme lighting and can even correctly expose subjects like snow. Also a 2.4% spot meter allows for precise metering of any part of the scene. The viewfinder shows an impressive 98% of the scene both horizontally and vertically. Also for the first time Canon will be employing 2.75" OLED display screen, offering superior resolution, brightness and power consumption to LCD screens and having markedly better performance in bright daylight.

From what i can gather i believe there will be a significant release by Canon on the 24th August (some offical Canon country based websites mention this as a launch date) however it may or may not be a 3D. The text from the original post has been about for a little while now although thats not to say the information is true/false.
A lot of people's money is betting on there being a new 1 Series model to replace the 1DS MKII, i.e a 1DS MKIII, rumour has it full frame 22mp sensor..
One thing that strikes me is that people are saying canon will release one new higher end model. How about a big WHAT IF they launch say both a 3D and a 1DS MKIII at the same time...
Whatever it is thats lauched i think the new model will have a very big impact and rumour has it there will be new technology not yet implemented by any manufacturer included.... what that is who knows !!

Replacement for the 350D, 400D maybe? With bigger screen, new sensor??
It's been 18 months, that's the lifespan for Canon isn't it?
I was under the impression that 12 months was the lifespan for Canon, 24 months for Nikon (with a minor update after 12 months). I don't know where I read/heard that though.

I was right, it's the new 400D, do I get a gold star?
