A new rumor showed up on dpreview forums. Accordingly Cannon is going to launch the 5D MkII earlier, on 22nd of April. These are the specs:

- Weather sealing same as 1Ds Mark III
- Dual Digic III with all-new "CXR" NR system reported to best 3rd party NR software. Available as a C.F with 4 levels of customizable parameters.
- 14 bit A/D conversion
- ISO 12800 (C.F. up to 25600)
- Reported 1 2/3 stop sensitivity improvement
