New photos from DCIRecent Canon P&S releases and the new connect station from Canon have given us some clues on the new Canon T6i (750D/760D). In a promo video a new DSLR is shown, I have a few screen grabs to share.Here you can see just a corner of the DSLR and if we take a closer look We see a top LCD and a lock switch. Both items have never before been seen on a xxxD or Rebel series DSLR. This could be very interesting and might mean they are ditching the top dial. Or maybe the just moved it to the other side similar to the xxD line. Everything else looks like a Rebel back there and Canon Rumors has confirmed that this is the next Rebel. Last year I blogged about the T6i and thought that they might go mirrorless, I no longer believe that is true and while I do suspect that at some point in the future the Rebel line will be a mirrorless system it seems to early and Canon has given us no other indication that this will be the switch.Just one more shot of the front - very little to see here as the hands do a spectacular job of hiding anything of interest. We do know that this next DSLR will work with the connect station from Canon. UPDATE Feb 4, 2015 - Camera will be called T6i/760D Skipping 750D to avoid confusion with Nikon's D750.So the name confusion - Looks like the T6i replacement will be 760D but there will be a 750D that will likely be the T5 replacement (barebones entry level DSLR)
- Full HD movies, MP4 format, HDR movie, automatic shooting modes (EOS 760D )

Note: Hybrid CMOS AF III is NOT the same as dual pixel AF.Below are my predictions for this camera before the list above was released.Rumors suggest a release just before the CP+ Show scheduled for mid February. So what DO I think the next rebel specs will be?
- 20.2 MP Sensor (Same as 70D)
- Dual Pixel AF system (also same as 70D)
- Wifi and NFC(for use with Connect Station)
- 1080p at 60 FPS
- 9 cross type focus points
