<p><strong>From Canon Japan’s Facebook

</strong>Canon Japan is now teasing us with a little promo called “White Kiss”. As you probably know, Rebel level cameras in Japan are called “Kiss”. So this is another sign that Canon will be launching a white Rebel of some kind. We’re not sure if this will be a global product, or just in select countries.</p>

so a rebel as 90% guessed already.... question is, a new one or just a white "christmas" edition?
i think it´s just a white edition.

....and people said the Nikon Df was going to revolutionize photography. Wait 'til they get a load of this!!! :-X

If a white version of existing model, why not released before? It seems to be a new model (SL2) white, but it will have a black version too. And hopefully, the same sensor 70D.

I think it's too soon for an SL2. Might have been a marketing decision to delay the release of the white model, or it could've been production issues (remember the issues that Apple had with the white iPhone 4 a couple of years back - and Apple launched an ad campaign when they finally got their act together for that, as well).

At least they're not wasting as much R&D investment on a white Rebel as Nikon did on the Df. Sure, it'll be a niche product of little interest to this crowd, but they'll make a few Yen on it.

Now wait a second! Do I remember a while back they had problems with the grip rubber turning white? I wonder if they had a big supply of that rubber they needed to use up ...

No...No...not Christmas addition...This is the Canon Rebel "White-Primer" edition...
This way, Kai over at Digital Rev has a pre-primed camera that he can now paint any color he wants with no fuss or muss....before he pees on it or sets it on fire!!!!

Oh yes, Kai! that Chinese/Hongkong dude with an English accent ... he is quite funny - most of the time ... apparently his youtube channel is the most watched photography site on the planet.

And here I thought that the Korean teaser was going to result in the SL X (SL1 body with 1D X sensor). Take note, Canon, a brilliant idea and perfect name.

the Japan teaser seems to have disappeared now

Wow. A white rebel. Is canon serious? This is big news? Canon better get back to innovating again. Cause making a big deal about a color change is kinda lame.

 

[AvTvM]

How ingenious! First ever camera in WHITE!
Congratulations, Canon!
And 1000 white kisses!

INNOVATION, CREATIVITY, LEADERSHIP: YES, Canon CAN!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

;D

This should revive slumping DSLR sales.

Now they only have to price it like the 7D2 (it's not a FF, so it can't be priced like the Df) and the deal is struck.

I already have a white 60D...

Where and when did you see canon globally announcing this "new" product as a big news? So far I've only seen 2 asian countries doing it. So I figure it will only be a local product. Canon isn't making a fuss about it and most certainly is not making it global...

Jealous! I wish my 60D had the Shelby stripes on it too! Do they make it go faster?

 

[moreorless]

Maybe this is a way of getting rid of all those defective 650D hand grips?

More megapixels, faster burst rate, higher ISO performance!
