EOS Bodies / Not long to wait.

I've just been browsing a UK photographic supplier that gives a release date for the Canon 6D of 20th November. Which is different than "early December.

Looks like we'll be getting those reviews and comparisons sooner rather than later (always assuming the above date is correct)!

EOS Bodies - For Stills / One way to win customers

I'm not sure this is particularly relevant, however Canon Rumours was carrying a banner ad for a British camera retailer offering the 5D3 at £2799 which seemed a favourable price. It boasted that stock was genuine UK imports.

I followed the link, and not being familar with this particular supplier I clicked on the "About Us" button on their homepage. I received the following message:

Page you are trying to check does not exist. Your IP (edited out by myself) has been logged for security reasons and will be used in case of any INTRUSION detected on our servers

This may be merely a technical thing, bit it would hardly persuade me to part with my cash to said supplier.

Canon General / Canon & Jessops

I've just seen it rumoured in the press here that Canon is to inject cash in UK retailer Jessops photographic. Jessops have been going through some tough times recently.
