Canon Press event on may 31st

[insanitybeard]

I would also like to see some compact wide/standard EF-S primes! What are the chances? I've got some coins here somewhere... I'll just go and flip 'em! (the same coins that form the basis of my lens fund... i.e, minimal to non existent :'( )

Yes, "must" (you forgot the italics). I may only be one, but (a) whether or not I buy the 100D (or any other APS-C camera) depends largely on whether or not Canon comes up with a small EF-S prime to match; and (b) the 60D/7D replacement is now so long overdue and horrendously under-spec'ed compared to the Nikon, Panasonic and Olympus offerings that neither they (the 60D and the 7D) nor the 6D is a viable option for me (singular, one).

So on the 31th they must announce a small 30~34mm EF-S prime (for the 100D) and the 60D upgrade (70D) or a 7D upgrade (7D2) or what happens?

sorry forgot the bold, italics and underline that time :

can't see the 70D being very exciting but when the 7D2 finally appears I think it may just be something very special, not on the 31st though

I think it will be Canon announcing it's first 3D printer.... and it probably comes with the file to print a 70D body and a 1200F5.6 lens....

Me go spend dinero elseplace ... Canon revenue one atto-percent less ...

 

[Don Haines]

On May 31 Canon will announce that the month of May will be discontinued and replaced with the month of June.

And in camera related news..... (cue crickets).....

I believe even the crickets have left the building, horribly depressed.

Canon has just announced that they haven't made up their minds on whether to actually develop a firmware update for the EOS-M.

….. and the tumbleweed rolls silently on

Finger on the pulse as ever M.ST

Seriously though did anyone really expect a big announcement given that this rumour was only for the Netherlands

3D Printer? Will it come with the gun-making software?

 

[RGF]

a non-event? So what else is new?

It could be quite the press event.....

Canondoes not make announcements for new cameras, or much of anything else on Fridays. This was a unbelievable rumor from the beginning.

 

[Don Haines]

Get Smart.... Canon does not "leak" information. They use the latest technology to Control information. Any discussions of new bodies are subject to the highest security and only conducted under the Cone-Of-Silence, out of fear of if the competition found out, Kaos would happen.

Ha ha ha ;D Good one Don.

You can't take these things seriously.... If you believed every rumour and all the speculation you would go crazy. I figure that what happens, happens. And when something does get announced you have months to wait before it is available, so why get worked up into a frenzy.

Canon will announce that from now on their cameras and lenses will only be leased to users on a pay-per-month basis.

+1 That's funny.
But who is to say that this will not be the future? The future is a big place.
