OK, so it is still just rumor, at this point.

It won't be real until we see a promo video of it that uses Nikon cameras (oops! Go that the wrong way around).

Those specs seem mostly corroborated by this French magazine page image:

which seems to be originally from the French magazine Photo, so I should credit their site http://www.photo.fr

The image is in this thread with some translations:

My guess: the pixel count has been increased just slightly from the 5616 x 3744 of the 5DMkII and 1DsMkIII to precisely 5760x3840, for video-related reasons.

It is more for photojournalists in the af and 6 fps perfect for that kind of camera if you shoot landscapes yes who cares but for lowlight af and 6 fps all I want for anything but sports. David www.davidseelig.com
