<strong>What’s coming in August?


</strong>Some information came today explaining what will be coming from Canon in the month of August. Currently it sounds like 3 different announcement dates for various Canon imaging products.</p>
<p>First up?</p>
<p><strong>Printers</strong>


We’re told that we should see new ImagePROGRAF printers sometime very soon, possibly next week.</p>
<p><strong>PowerShot</strong>


New PowerShot cameras at the end of August is almost a given. I am told we’ll get a true replacement to the G12. The G1X was never really meant to replace the lower end cousin. I am also told we’ll see a small camera with an f/1.9 lens. There was no mention of specifications for either camera.</p>
<p>I also expect a new superzoom or two for the PowerShot lineup.</p>
<p><strong>EOS M


</strong>I find this a bit unlikely, but it was also mentioned we’ll see a second EOS-M camera announced in the fall, probably not before Photokina though. It would be the “pro” model.  I’m confident one is coming, I’m just not sure it’s coming that soon.<strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>A new wide angle zoom lens


</strong>A new wide angle zoom for EF should be announced before Photokina in September. Could it be the <a href="http://www.canonrumors.com/2012/06/canon-ef-14-24-f2-8l-cr2/" target="_blank">long awaited EF 14-24</a>?</p>
<p><strong>EF 200-400 f/4L IS 1.4x


</strong>There are tons of these lenses in London currently, I expect an announcement this fall and pretty fast availability.<strong> </strong></p>
