Popular Photography
We previously posted about PopPhoto's declaration of a “great new dslr”.
It's the T2i.
A note to PopPhoto, the T2i isn't considered “new” in the photography world.
Thanks Nikon Rumors
cr
Boo hoo. This cover/review should have run two months ago.
Well PopPhoto is a very Nikon biased website.
No it’s not Nikon biased. It’s sh1t.
Simple.
A note to Canon Rumors…PopPhoto is not considered a photography magazine in the photography world.
This just shows how far behind the news curve that traditional media has become in a world of immediacy. Too bad.
Fail.
Nikon Rumors was faster posting this^^xD
Let’s boycott Pop Photo! To the barricades!
been doing that since…wait…forever
I don’t understand what you are expecting from a magazine called “Popular Photograpy”. That is what they do; bring photgraphy to the masses. It is unreasonable to have even thought they would be on the “bleeding edge” of technology.
Not new.
…. or great. :)
x2
Yeah I said as much at the time.

It appears that, in this world of NOW, we need to invert an adjective that fits between ‘newest’ and ‘new’ since the newest dslr isn’t new anymore.
“great new dslr” because they probably got it a couple days ago?
Well, at least it was a canon .. :p
It said “great new” what, else should it be than a canon ;)
a nikon? xD
No kidding. It reads like a couple hundred pages of advertisements!
I almost postponed the purchase of the T2i because of the “greatest new DLSR” rumour. Off to the store now…
Magazine content is typically prepared 6 months before the publication date. Don’t expect to read yesterdays news in a magazine, it just is not possible.
Excellent news! You’re getting the rumored “great new DSLR”!
they did it to get free advertising from canon and nikonrumors!
Yeah… it should be called POS Photo instead
Ditto this!
MEGA SIGH
And the let-downs continue…
The magazine was just stating that Halley Barry’s cover is a special and not a monthly norm, and it’ll go back to the regular “Great new cameras”.
Most are jumping on it like flies on a turd and taking those words out of context.
And posting that statement in an editor’s column, down at the bottom is hardly “Declaration” of a new camera….
I’m not a subscriber of the mag, this is just sad.
*Halle Berry
Well put. The last issue I looked at was virtually all ads, with nothing in between. It seems like the vast majority of photo related magazines are like that.
you misunderstood what the magazin wrote.
even i as none native english guy understood what they meant.
they spoke about the cover in GENERAL….. and that on the next issue a camera will on the cover again an not a human… they don´t spoke about a great NEW camera never seen before.
you are not only to stupid to understand a PATENT…. you are not very bright at all….
and even worse you blame the magazin for your low IQ…..
Complain, mumble, grumble. At least it gave me a break from editing all day. Thanks CR – I for one appreciate it and am entertained as usual.
whatever
Proves it datedness with its cover.
People still read print magazines?
Wow Jason, not only do you not understand English too well, you don’t understand tact either!
> A note to PopPhoto, the T2i isn’t considered “new” in the photography world.
Or “great”.
Ok, so this let a lot of people down. But really, what were we expecting? PopPhoto to release the 60D or what?
All they did was take some time to conduct tests and get a solid review for the issue. Besides, if the T2i is “old”, what’s the 7D? Ancient? And the 5D Mark II?
Give PopPhoto a break.
I think that was the original title but someone missed the typo (‘P’ and ‘S’ are so close together on the board so I guess it’s forgivable) and they decided to just go with it.
Most of you folks don’t understand the lead time for a printed publication. Having read Modern Photography, Outdoor Photographer, etc. for decades, I’m used to seeing reports of “new” stuff months after it was out. We are spoiled by the speed of electronic communications.
I don’t know why everyone hates this magazine so much, It’s great for reading reviews of cameras/lens you already have, makes you jealous that you don’t own a Nikon. I’m personally a fan.
I agree and this is also why monthly magazines suck. Here in Hong Kong they have fortnightly magazines (Digi is the photography one) and they’re very up to date with their info (just a little behind the net).
Then again, Hong Kong mags are basically disteibuted in one city, which helps the process.
Which is why magazines suck you dork.
Jason, start your own rumours site please. Hope you like the sound of crickets chirping.
LOL reading that magazine will certianly lower your IQ.
‘P’ and ‘S’ are as far apart as you can get, actually.
Exactly! I have a Canon Rumor for you. Popular Photography will be around a lot longer than this blog ever will be.
Poor baby, the 60D’s not out yet is it? Wahh wahh.
Give Canon Rumors guy a break.
That’s certainly true. LOL
SEGA MEGA SIGH
Pop photo is lame, like you for deleting my posts…
This perfectly illustrates why I no longer waste my time with this class of photography magazine. It’s all old news, and it’s all geared towards noobs.
Their “Bleeding Edge” news is my 2 months ago old news.
I am bored….
I’d go for POOP Photo, only they had a proken “o” letter on the keybord
so how did they get the first “O” then, if it was broken?
That’s exactly it. The writers and editors are all Noink nuthuggers since the film era. I should know, we were once regular subscribers of this mag when it was still relevant.
“Greatest Rebel EVAR”… Heck, I almost bought this from a newsstand thinking they have a feature article on Che Guevara…
So where is spoiler to deny the 60D?
Though i agree its hard to squeeze between the 7d and 550D on anything but price, and maybe focus points.
Sarcasm, sir. Sarcasm.
I mean “SEGA MEGA SIGH-STEM”
“we”
LOL
60D is a lie created by Xenu.
“‘P’ and ‘S’ are as far apart as you can get, actually.”
As long as you don’t count the letters that are even further away.
No, they just publish them to provide some colourful wallpaper for corner shops.
What’s funny? “We” means “family”, not the TEAM. :P M0r0n.
Tom Cruise is a god!
Oh and Obama’s a democrat u noob. :P
Bored mark II
L Ron Hubbard had a family. The E Meter told him they were all infested with thetans and he had them audited.
4Chan is that way ——–> http://www.4chan.org/
bye now
I too / Me too……
4chan sucks big time. Bunch of hipster geeks who think they’re more important than they are.
I do agree with their war on Scientology though.
Oh and people who think knowing about 4chan makes them somehow special are worse. :P
This is why I don’t read Popular Photography Mag.
No you didn’t!
got my mugs from the ‘canon mug” site , …neat-o!!!!
They’re doing better than Harvey Norman here in Australia. They have a series of ads running on the One TV network, that state that the “latest in DSLR technology” (or something to that effect, “latest” is definitely used) is the Nikon D90. Presumably they’re overstocked and are still trying to get rid of the things.
It broke after the first tap.
Only ‘A’ and ‘Q’.
I’m referring to their placement on a QWERTY keyboard, Einstein.
Pop photo is stupid, sutpid and stupid!!!!!
ITT: Rule 1 and 2 :P
Yes I did, so shut it!
Oh, no you didn’t!
Dude, his name’s Fred… noob.
Oh, yes I did!
It better be “greatest new DSLR”, I just ditched Nikon for a Canon…
You mean people still actually read it?
M0r0n. Your idol Dubya started the war in Iraq and Afghanistan not Obama. And Dubya’s a Repug like you. Bye now kiddo. You just got 0wned massively.
There is a word in the English dictionary that fits your demands. It’s called “newer.”
I agree.
Why so much hate on such a good camera.. Canonrumors fail big. more than this magazine.
its not like it was a year from release.
at least you know they have thoroughly tested it :D
ITS A CANON GUYS
Yeah, they should’ve reviewed a newer DSLR, like the….um…wait….there’s probably a newer one, right?
