So now there's black and white. Two more colors to go to tie the T3 color palette in number of options.

I would love a white SL1. I'm really happy with mine. It pretty much replaced my M. Too late now though, not going to buy another body just for a different color. Besides, if it is UK only, then oh well...

If it was a attached to a 70-200 f2.8L does it make it a pro body? LOL

Looks good, I agree with the comment about the grip.

If anyone has a 100d attached to a 70-200, please post it! Also mention how it feels with that lens on..

By the first month of use, at least by me, that camera will be off white, then bone white, then crusty creme, then sandy brown, then dirt brown, then burnt sienna brown, then marbled black, then pretty much the color I have now, minus a few buttons.. so whats the point!?!?! ;D

Past 2 years of Canon innovations press releases of powershots, Rebels, and stm kit lens innovations.

I thought the smart phone market was creeping into powershot margins, why bother with the powershot segment anymore?

Well cheers to another Q1 year of nothing but announcements of lenses and bodies from other camera brands.
