Canon makes many mistakes, like no announcement, they are the one who generate this kind of prank. Get used to it. May be they will change sooner or later. But don't know cannot trust canon it might be true, who knows.
Despite the grains of sand...As the 5Diii is not listed it might be a hint for a Q1 2012 announcement...Whatever will be will be...
BTW: it was still posted some 5 min. ago
Just noticed that in the UK, Jessops have stopped listing the 1DsIII.
That is not a typo or omission, it is deliberate. The 1D4 is available on back order, but 1DsIII not listed at all...
So, maybe a 1Ds4 is on its way...
Plenty of bargains to be had with a 5D2 as well across most the dealers... £2100 for 5D2 + 24-105 is not a bad deal at all. Almost worth buying to split and sell!
jessops jacobs etc have knocked £100 off the 5d2 body too there big retailers whom get the canon stuff 1st before most other internet a smaller retailers so I'm guessing they know something and are getting rid of stock
simple, historically, Jessops have always charged a bit more than most retailers for the higher end kit - hence they can claim bigger reductions when they match every one else to clear stock
