Canon Mirrorless Digital Camera May be Announced on July 23

There is a rumor that Canon will announce Mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera (MILC) this coming Monday (July 23). Here is the picture leaked:

Is this the Canon Mirroless Digital Camera?

No one knows the size of the sensor yet. It could be the APS-C.  In my opinion, the price of this camera may be in the range of US$800 to 1000.  This camera may induce fierce in competition cut-throat prices  among all other Mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera manufacturers.  It will be good news for photographers who are fond of this type of camera.  It is not sure whether Canon will offer other color for this camera.

MILC is smaller in size than a digital single-reflex camera (DSLR), which is much more portable than a DSLR.  Quality of picture may be equivalent to non-full size senor's DSLR.
