Announcements [Ratings in Post]

August 18th, 2009 Posted in Canon General, Canon Rumors Site Information


August 19, 2009
There will be a ton of announcements tonight. I have conflicting reports of what to expect tonight, but I’ll post the stuff from the best sources.

PowerShots [CR2]
Tonight we will see the following cameras:

G11
SX20 (no news on an sx2)
Touchscreen Elph

[CR1]
A new 8x Zoom Elph

SLR’s [CR2]
I’m told if an SLR is announced tonight, it would be a new Rebel. The 60D/7D is being held until the first week in September.

There is also a conflicting report that the 1D Mark IV will be announced in September and we can expect the new Rebel and 60D tonight.

Sorry I can’t be more specific!

Lenses
A new macro is on the way for sure. It will be stabilized. It may be held over until the SLR announcements.

I will be posting all night, hoping that new stuff gets to my inbox!

Send any info to: buzz@canonrumors.com

Server
I have migrated Canon Rumors to the 4th server in 12 days or so. Everything will work great from now on. I have thrown hundreds of dollars at the issues and we have found a winner!

I have ordered a new batch of t-shirts to give away to the great Canon Rumors community. I can’t give everyone a t-shirt but at least it’s something! Thanks again.

    The suspense is killing me. I work at Best Buy…wish I had some info for everyone. The G11 is for sure. No spec though. Oh and I would love a shirt please. Dig all the ideas so far. Peace. Maybe Canon will shock us.

    Come on?!? no mark II for the 70-200MM 2.8 IS or 135MM 1.8 IS?

    Reply

    Anonymous Reply:

    Yeah, I’m waiting to hear about the 70-200 2.8L IS II.

    I also want a new macro (sold my old one) so that’s good, but what I’m really waiting for is the 70-200 II.

    135 1.8 IS would cost way too much IMHO (though it would be awesome).

    A new Rebel already? Isn’t the 500D only a few months old?

    Reply

    homerfreak Reply:

    I think the 2000D/T1 is meant and not a 550D. The 550D will definetely come mid- oder end-2010.

    Oy Vey, this is killing me: I’m in University and have decided to take a second degree in Film and Media. I was really, really hoping I’d have a 60D in my hands when fall practical assignments start up at the end of September/behining of October. Come ON 60D!

    Can you give us a [CR2] for the rebel tonight rumor and a [CR1] for the 60D tonight rumor? Or is it the other way around?

  25. ABC Says:

    I’d say signs point to nothing more than a T1 tonight…a low end Rebel, and a bunch of P&S.

    I think Canon wants to hold their better stuff until early Sept to step all over Sony’s announcement in late Aug.

    However, I think Canon should get the 60D/7D model out tonight; in this market the sooner the public awareness of a product gets out the better.

    I bet Nikon sells a few more D300s models simply because it’s already been announced and will start shipping soon.

    Pretty please, with sugar on top? That one used to work when I was a kid :). I do hope they announce the 60D along with a new Rebel. Save the 1D for its own release.

    My kids say: “Please lovely daddy”.

    So “Please lovely Canon, can we please have a 1DIV/60D/7D + new lenses tonight and not wait till stinking September 1st”

    Why wait till Sept 1st I wonder. Just so the Sept 1st announcements won’t be overshadowed by P&S announcements? P&S buyers generally don’t follow Canon rumours and announcements (GX series aside).

    Just announce them all tonight why don’t ya’ll. Heh heh.

    if 60D is true, hopefully it’s not just 50D with video capability.

  29. homerfreak Says:

    Oh, I would be so happy if the 60D specs would be something like this:
    15mp improved sensor
    1080p@24fps (maybe 720p@60fps, too) with full manual control
    SDHC
    3″ 920k oder even better
    an ey-control-feature would be great, but it isn’t necessary. I don’t need WLAN either, but GPS would be cool. But 1080p with a good framerate and full manual control is the most important point for me.

  30. A Says:

    15 MP
    1080p@24
    CF and SDHC
    6-7 FPS increase to over 8 with battery grip
    improved AF…more AF points and improved tracking
    lower noise at high ISO
    better DR
    improved sealing
    etc. etc. etc.

    Yep the XXD series would really benefit from a AF update. Put the current 1DIII AF in the XXD then update the 1DIV with even better AF. That would be pretty good (I’d even buy a 60D if they did.

    Chances are a camera like that would be called the 7D I guess. ;)

  31. ABC Says:

    I don’t think Canon will disappoint when they do announce the 60D. I agree that the 1D mk4 deserves its own event…so one more reason to announce the 60D tonight.

    However I don’t know that Canon will see it the same way.

    Hope that Canon does it right…the D300s looks awfully nice. I’ve been waiting to upgrade from my Digital Rebel/300D and am really hoping to stay with Canon.

    Canon needs to learn how to ‘leak’ info. Internet is so powerful for generating hyped up interest.
    Nikon and Sony does a good job at this.

    Eric Ferguson Reply:

    Haha, as if there’s not enough hype already! Canon is no doubt producing MORE hype because they’re so tight lipped. Look at us, up in the middle of the night hitting F5. IF there was a CR[3] a week ago about the 60D, I’d be in bed right now!

    Oh yeah, me too… But it’s 5:18am here in Berlin and after watching more than 15 episodes of Two and a half men, I’m still up waiting for a news about the 60D. Hey, wow, the sky is becoming greater, in 3 episodes I won’t need a lamb anymore =)
