Faster Focusing Method for Burst Shooting with DSLRs patented by Canon, may never come any time soon.

As camera manufacturers started taking mirrorless route, still plenty of companies are dedicated for top-class DSLRs. Mirrorless cameras are announced each year with massive specs bumps, And while the mirrorless market is seeing a massive jump in specs with each passing year, the DSLR market is holding its grounds with their less mechanical counterparts.

Canon has patented and may use phase-detection auto-focus sensor very soon. In the burst mode, after you frame the subject and press the shutter, phase-detection pixels will handle the auto-focus workload.This means that rather than lifting and lowering the mirror for each exposure, the mirror stays in it’s upright position, letting the sensor handle the workload. This helps in drastic imporvement in the frame-rate over the current DSLRs, showing best of both worlds photography– DLSRs and mirrorless.

For this method, it requires some sort of hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder, however the patent doesn’t show as much of such technology, we still are unknown what’s coming or we may never see it into a Canon camera anytime soon.
