Have a Happy New Year!
Don’t drink and drive
Thanks to everyone that made 2008 a great first year for Canon Rumors.
I know it’s not Thanksgiving, but here goes anyway.
- Thanks to everyone that visits the site (all 3+ million of you!).
- Thanks to everyone that leaves comments.
- Thanks to everyone that has emailed me.
- Thanks to the other web sites that give CR link love, I try to always return the favor.
- Thanks to everyone that has flamed me, I’d be doing something wrong if I pleased everyone.
- Thanks to everyone that has bought something through an Amazon link.
- Thanks to all my sources.
Corporate Thanks
- Thanks to Carl Zeiss
- Thanks to Singh-Ray, Gitzo, Markins & Really Right Stuff
2009 will be a bigger and better year for Canon Rumors. I have stuff in store I think regular visitors will appreciate.
As always, the rumors are the main things you folks care about, I’ll keep them coming.
Have a safe and happy New Years Eve.

And happy new year to you too! (Still in Ireland? I can’t remember how long you said you’d be staying there for…)
Looking forward to the new things! And I’m going to endeavour to comment more too!

Happy New Year to you as well. Looking forward to this site growing throughout the next year.
P.S. I am waiting to find out about the 1D, the 24-70, the 100-400 and the 180 macro… any info?

Any word on the zeiss lens review you’ve been promising? I am torn between this and canon and am interested to see some results on a canon body to see if the extra cost plus loss of AF is worth it.

@Mike
I’m waiting on getting my 5D Mark II with the new firmware to finish the testing. I will say the 50mm isn’t nearly as strong as the 85 1.4, which I’m a big fan of.
I had to send the lenses back to Zeiss, but I will request the 85 1.4 again to test with the 21mp FF sensors.
Thanks!

Just to let you know I rarely visit the site, but it’s in my RSS feed and I read every post you put up. Just in case you ever worry about the number of hits.
Thanks for this site.
Happy New Year!

My wish list for 2009
1). New stadard lenses good enough for EOS 1ds mk III. Why can’t Canon have a series of lenses that can comped with Leica and Hasselblad. I really need a better 24-70 2,8.
2). Better flashes. A new Speedlight 720 EX could have been cool. But the most important thing is faster recyceling, better bild quality and softer light.

Happy new year!
I wish canon will drop the price a bit.
