The Photographic, Video & Digital Imaging Show
I'll be in Toronto tomorrow for the Henry's show. I'll bring the laptop and do some posts from there.
I'm looking most forward to seeing the Sony NEX cameras. The APS-C sensor in those little bodies is intriguing. I also like seeing a jogwheel on the camera. I'll also be looking at various high end Sony lenses for possible rental items for Lens Rentals Canada.
I'll see if anyone at Canon wants to talk to me.
I might play “the worlds dumbest customer” at the Nikon booth.
Say “hello” if you see me in my cr t-shirt.

I’ll be there! Hopefully. I’ll keep an eye out for you! :P
And hopefully Canon will spill some beans on their new cam :-)
Sounds fun, maybe they’ll be handing out some P&S’s as door stops – I mean door prizes. Enjoy.
I dare you to wear a tshirt saying “70-200 2.8 IS II > 70-200 2.8 VR II” and walk over to the Nikon booth.
It hurts them because it’s true :-D
darn… i won’t be going until Sunday.
Free tickets for anyone who wants:

so youll play dumbest customer at nikon booth..u should do that at canons as well
Sensors on NEXs (and the new JPEG engine) seems awesome comparing the results on imaging-resource, you’re not alone :D
Seriously, comparing ISO3200 photos, they’re better than every APS-C sensor i tried, 7D, D300s, even the D90 that got the immediatly previous series of Sony sensors…
Surely a sensor doesn’t “makes” a camera, but a NEX5 + pancake and that IQ… i could never leave it at home, and of course continuing to use my DSLRs for action/critical photos.
(Distorsion on the E 18-55 is a bit high if left uncorrected, and the 18-200 will come only this fall)
How do you play “the worlds dumbest customer” game at a rival’s booth by the way? :P I wanna try that at the local Noink & Sony booths the next time I visit a photo trade show.
Have fun Canon Rumours Guy :)
“Playing dumb” sounds really fun… just hope that the ones at Nikon booth don’t see you badgering the Canon booth for info :)
a little difficult to do with a CR t-shirt on. :)

Nice one…
The images from the new backlit sensor are amazing, even at IS) 12,800 they are usable.
We all know Sony can become a competitor if they want to, however, it takes a big change of attitude.
I now am wondering if Canon or Nikon will do this for their next FF cameras. A extra stop or two would be very nice.
Thanks for the Link. I hate paying for tickets to events where you’re buting their products.
The high-ISO performance of the new Sony seemed surprisingly good to me, too.
The new SD4000 IS is claimed to have “new 10-megapixel back-illuminated CMOS sensor”.
Is that pretty much the same technology? How much of a difference will it make? Looking forward to some testing…
Could this be the big new feature of the 60D???
Hmmm…
Here is a link to the JUN2008 Sony press release on the backlit approach:

It wasn’t so long ago that Canon claimed to have a two year lead in CMOS technology. Ahem…
Cool link. That’s pretty amazing if accurate.
