The 35mm f/1.4L is out of stock on BH!
I’m holding off buying any new equipment until major announcements are made – and I’m sure that I’m not alone. It would be in Canon’s best interest to make their announcements well before PMA, and mid-February seems about right.
500D 500D 500D
:-D
I hope…
NEW 100-400L NEW 100-400L NEW 100-400L
Im hoping for a full frame 1D, but im not very confident this will happen.
More compact cameras, that’s all you gonna get. :D
Coooommme ooooooooon 1D IV!!!!
@Noyy
500D ^^
I am waiting, too
1D IV o 3D!!!!!
… if not.. Nikon
Interested in both the 35L and the new 100-400L non push pull. If the new 35LII is an improvement on the already awesome 35L I cannot resist it.
Please no 1D MKIV, won’t have saved that much for a long time! :-)
I hope you are not in the know and are totally wrong….cos I want a 1d Mk4!!! Come on Canon ( said in a casino roulette way).
If the 1d mk4 (or 3n) does not materialise I will have a very difficult decision…one that I would rather not make!
come on 500D!
give me something to keep my mind of those sweet olympus rangefinders…
Me too, and me neither…
3D ……… that would be REALLY nice
If the 500D does not come out I am buying a Nikon.
Crossing my fingers for the 500D too. Got money burning a hole in my pocket waiting for it.
+1 on the new 35L
1D MrkIV. Please please please.
Yes, a new 100-400L … I can feel it! I can feel it!!!
Canon 500D already exists … It’s a close-up lens … :D.
I’m hoping for a new 50mm f/1.4 or a 3D.
Just bought a 35L a few months ago. I guess I would be upset if it were replaced, but I don’t think I would upgrade, as the new model will probably be $500+ more expensive than the MarkI.
The only improvements they could make to this lens, IMO, are weather sealing and an all metal body. But other than that, the lens is perfect as-is.
7D 7D 7D pleaaaaaaaaaaase!!!!!!!!!!!
400D MKII 400D MKII 400D MKII!!!!!
;)
A 7D would be sweet, especially because it would piss off all those people who pre-ordered the 5DII :D
I hope the same, so I will decide if buy the mark IV (IIIn) or the 5D Mark II.
12MP cheap FF 7D with better AF!
lol…man i can just hear the collective sigh of disappointment when the actual announcement comes… you guys get so worked up… don’t you know the secret about expectations ;) … don’t have any and you’ll alway be happy =)
Would a 17-200 F2.8-4L IS for a FF camera be too much to hope for?? or should i lower my expectations.
Once again, the excitement begins. What will it be (lens or camera)? :)
500d please, I’ve been waiting for it so I can finally by an XSi… How much do you think the price will drop?
500D needs to be released! Nikon’s D90 is becoming too popular
me three
Either a 7D or 500D will be good. Come on!
what nikon would you buy? the cameras that nikon makes to compete with rebels are no where in the canon class.
The d40 and d60 are underwhelming cameras and if you want to spend 1200 on a d90 then the rebel is not the camera that best competes with it…
JC
I don’t know what you expect this make believe 7d to be?
full frame at what price? 2000 – why not buy a 5 then…
it won’t be less than that – not for the next few years at least…
and to say either a 7 or a 500 seems silly to me as well –
isn’t there a 50D/60D fitting in the middle there?
JC
more lenses, less body, too many bodies already
I WANT 500D!~ 500D!~500D!~500D!~500D!~500D!~500D!~500D!~
500D!~500D!~500D!~500D!~500D!~500D!~500D!~500D!~ :)
Come ooooooooon 35.4 II!
oh and
a full-frame 1D-class body to compete against Nikon’s D3 would be nice, too; but knowing Canon this will never happen :(
Plus
not making any prediction but
isn’t 50.4 way over due??
I hope for the 1DIIIN/IV. :)
I expect yet more Ixus random noise generators. :(
It’s FIVE years since the PowerShot Pro1 was announced (Monday, 9 February 2004). I’ve been using one as my spare, spare (for when my 1D-III’s die!) and it has just died so I replaced it with the SX1 which feels so cheap by comparison. The Pro1 may have had its problems (and the £1000 price tag hurt a little!), but five years ago an 8MP camera with 7x L-Series fluorite lens was incredible and beat the field hands down . . . it’s still a pretty high spec even by today’s standards. It was announced alongside the 1D-II, with the same resolution . . . so with a little extrapolation, I would like to see . . .
PowerShot Pro X1: metal body; CMOS sensor 15.1MP (or even 21MP); L-Series IS lens: 28-560mm 20x; 6fps; true 1080p HDTV movie capture at 30fps; 2.8†widescreen vari-angle LCD II.
None of this is any more implausible than the spec that was announced back in Feb 2004 . . . I won’t hold my breath!
I just a new 15mm Canon Fisheye and the multi-languange instruction sheet lists a Canon 50mm 1.0 L lens throughout the materials.
I had also noticed some dealing on the 1.2 L in the Tokyo shops.

Any news about this topic?
Yeah, February 17th has come and (almost) gone. I guess tomorrow will be the day?
This is right here, in the present, not the future.
