Canon Japan Teases a White Kiss

[Zv]

Super lame teaser and even lamer idea. A white Rebel? What is this? Pentax?? The white EOS M already exists. How is this big news?? Get back to making my (our?) 14-24 and big megapixel wotsitmathingy stat!!

White kiss indeed! Bah humbug!

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.

This is just CR informing us about what Canon is doing in Japan, there is no mass media coverage by Canon anywhere else in the world, about this product ... if Canon did decide to make it "big news", they would not keep it just to Japan (or Korea).

In countries like Japan, Korea, China etc there is a sizable market for camera bodies with different colors ... Canon does not have to justify their business decisions to you, even if you think it is lame.

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

Yeah but it ain't a mighty Canon for men ... its just a white Panty X for girly men

 

[preppyak]

Ha.

I really hope Canon' doesnt look like that. I'd actually want a fully white body, grip and all. If the grip is still black, it just looks awkward. Then again, so will all the black lenses

 

[duydaniel]

so when do we have this Rabel t6i vs Nikon Df??? :

 

[DaveMiko]

Oh, my goodness! I thought it was an iPhone! ;D ... This is ridiculous and pathetic news, to say the very least!

yawn. :

OTOH the lower end stuff sells the most and if this gets more sales then they get more freedom to buy a new sensor line so bring on the white rebel or whatever it is and let it sell like mad!

If people like the white and it sells then it's good.

Winter is coming....

If I had a white camera I could go out and take pictures of my white cat in the white snow

No. And we don't have to justify making fun of Canon' poor business decisions and criticizing them for producing crap like white kiss cameras instead of gear that is at least fully competitive, not to mention innovative. And you lnow what: we don't even care for the well-known canon paid canon lobbyists and assorted canon fanboys on this forum, who will always rush to canon's defense, no matter how ridiculous and off the mark their newest product offerings may be.

So do you have proof it is a poor business decision, meaning in revenue not your desired piece of equipment. This is also being marketed to a certain region of the world. Where is this lack of competiveness you are claiming? Again the expected answer requires cold hard facts.

not at all. Proof is in the pudding.
I don't owe you or any other Canon fanboy and Canon lobbyists a thing.
Get your cold facts yourself ... or wait until they materialize in CaNikon's next financial reports. Suit yourself.

I'll just lean back and keep watching Canon's announcement. But .. I'll continue to hold my wallet tight and my checkbook online banking account closed ... and will pass up on Canon's white kisses or any other sub-par stuff they may try to throw at me.

Until they go under or come up with an FF mirrorless the size of Sony's A7R with a better sensor (!), better IQ , better EVF and way better AF .. at less than 2000 Euros. And some nice ultracompact pancake prime lenses to go woth it. 20/4, 40/2.8 [got that already, so adapter will do] and a 85/2.0 IS.

Whatever comes first. Now go figure.

Listen to this man Canon. You'll go bankrupt if he continues to hold his wallet tight. ;D

White and black has become my favorite color scheme recently, I would absolutely love white bodies with black highlights as an alternative to the standard all black.

My cat also has a 'white body' with black highlights. He must be in fashion!

A pussy cat that "has a white body with black highlights" does not count ... unless it has a mighty Canon ;D

If Canon is looking to pay lobbyists to write into forums, I'd like to send them my resume.
