There’s no way all of these are being done away with. However, Canon has tipped their hat in the past with product removal from the Canon USA site. Announcements are coming soon.
*UPDATE* Announcement
An anonymous tipster said we can expect some Canon announcements on January 5, 2010 & January 9, 2010. Saturday would be a strange announcement day, but CES is just around the corner.
Missing Lenses on Canon USA
Coincidence or telling us something.
If you visit Canon USA’s web site you’ll see the following lenses are missing.
EF 70-200 f/2.8L IS
EF 70-200 f/2.8L
EF 70-200 f/4L
We’ll keep a close eye on this.
