Check this out... http://www.computeruniverse.net/products/e90391547/canon-eos-60d-body-schwarz.asp

Pay attention to this:
"not available
Product is no longer available. Only listed for information purposes."

Can this mean that Canon will release the EOS 70D sooner than later? Maybe during the CES?

**********************

Regarding the EOS 7D, they seem to be selling the last available units. http://www.computeruniverse.net/products/e90346353/canon-eos-7d-body.asp

Pay attention to this:
"Remaining stock
Remaining stock. Ready for shipping within, ready for shipping within 2-3 business days"


This online shop is a reference in Europe.

I wrote this in another topic... At this point, EOS 7D is in the same situation.

meanwhile comuteruniverse.net sais that the 7D is no longer available, only listed for information purposes.

I have had my 60D since June of 2011 or so... I figured it wouldn't be discontinued until 2013... I guess I was hoping for too much. I do not need to upgrade the body any time soon (about 8000 actuations), but I'm now curious as all hell what the 70D will have that the 60 does not.

While I know no one cares, I think I will probably wind up getting the 80D when that times comes... with 2 or 3 lens upgrade in the mean time. So yay spending money!

The 60D is available at B&H now... so that's good for those who wanted it.

60D reappeared in some online stores in Europe after being out of stock for 2 months or so...

Edit: just saw that it had become available on B&H 2 weeks ago as well so below was accurate:

From information i received from Canon (through a 3rd party), the 60D's production was affected by the Thailand floods. The camera is assembled in Japan, but some stuff inside the camera was of Thai origin.
