Canon Rumors:
Share *UPDATE*
I upgraded the announcement date to [CR3]. The specs I’ll leave at [CR2], I haven’t heard a confirmation of the short list below. New Rebel this week?
It appears June 8, 2012 may be the announcement date for the new Canon EOS T4i/650D. I am told the NDA’s lift that day. Friday seems to be the new favoured day of the week for Canon announcements. I didn’t get any new specs on the camera, so I posted the specs we reported earlier. I’ll post more if I get more. I also expect a new EF-S 18-135 IS to be announced alongside the EF 40mm f/2.8 pancake. Specifications
* 18mp (no word on whether or not its a new or modified 18mp sensor)
* 9 AF Points, all cross-type
* Touchscreen LCD
* Continuous AF in LiveView & Video Recording  cr

Yeah, I still don't know if I could get used to a touch screen on a dslr. Still, though, this should be a pretty sweet body for anybody just getting started out. Put some decent glass in front of it, and there's no reason you shouldn't be able to get some nice images.

RC:
Is it just me or do others also think a touchscreen on a camera is lame?  Why would you want to muck up your LCD with smudges and fingerprints so it becomes a big messy glare?

It seems to me is just a "oooh cool, lets get this one Martha, it has a touch screen" gimmick?   ::)

hmmm.... Canon give us a good reason to upgrade from  550D to 650D ... don't mention the 600D to 650D. Disappointing, i have expected at least a 20MP sensor. Nikon ( if the rumor is true) , Canon just drove  your D3200 sales up, UP, UP.

draexler:
Any rumours on how the touchscreen will be integrated into the overall controls layout? Less buttons than the 600D or the same layout but with more quick-access features with the touchscreen?
