Canon registered a new “DS126771” camera in Asia (updated: Canon EOS-1D X Mark III confirmed)


Canon registered a new camera in Asia under the code name DS126771:


The new model will use the Canon LP-E19 battery from the current EOS-1DX Mark II and will be equipped with Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11b/g/n) and Bluetooth 4.1. I think it is safe to assume that the DS126771 will be the already rumored Canon EOS-1D X Mark III.

Update: the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III DSLR camera was confirmed by both Nokishita and CanonRumors. The official announcement could be as early as tonight.
