<p><strong>A light at the end of the tunnel?

</strong>I spoke to someone at NAB last week about the yet-to-be-officiall-announced EF 200-400 f/4L IS 1.4x. I was told that the lens is now “expected to arrive in the fall of 2013. The design and functionality of the lens are set, Canon is now waiting for the manufacturing process to be finalized so production can begin”.</p>
<p>I got to hold and play with the 200-400 a bit last week, and I must say the weight of it shocked me. It’s going to be pretty close to the EF 600 f/4L IS II. I’m sure everything else about the lens is top notch, as we’re still being told to expect a price north of $10,000 USD.</p>

<p><strong>UPDATE

</strong>Two people have written in to tell me that the April 23, 2013 date is not for the EOS 70D. With it being a week away, I tend to agree.</p>
<p><strong>The next EOS

</strong>The next DSLR Canon is going to announce is the EOS 70D, we’re trying to confirm if it will come on April 23, 2013 as previously reported. Below is a spec list put together from various sources that have written in. All of it seems plausible and almost expected.</p>
<p><strong>What to expect from the EOS 70D.</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>18mp Sensor (Same as SL1)</li>
<li>DIGIC V (no one has said it will get DIGIC 6)</li>
<li>6.5fps</li>
<li>SD Card</li>
<li>Wifi</li>
<li>GPS</li>
<li>3.2″ Touchscreen LCD (No mention of swivel)</li>
<li>Magnesium Alloy Construction</li>
<li>Weathersealed</li>
<li>Slightly larger than the EOS 60D</li>
<li>$1199 USD Body Only</li>
</ul>
<p>We’re told a lens will be announced with the EOS 70D, but we haven’t heen told what it will be.</p>
