I'd suggest refreshing this thread at least 20 times per minute. Dang.. thats a lot.

My wife of almost 40yrs. just walked past me sitting at the computer,rolled her eyes,shook her head and laughed,saying you'll never grow up will you?I hope not kiddo! Hmmm.. I think she might have walked by here as well. I heard the same words. ;):)

[Stealthy Ninja]

Yeah, it is really a lot of fun.

Even though I won't be able to afford this camera for about 6 months. LOL

Definition for Obsessive-Compulsive disorder:

- An anxiety disorder marked by the presence of obsessions (what else?) and compulsions (refreshing this page and Canon's "moon" page over and over again) severe enough to interfere with the activities of daily life

I think we've all got it. I need sleeeep.

after all this BS and if Canon releases something that is like going from the 40D-50D..I think they are gonna go bust on this model then. For all this hype and crap this thing better be 100% totally new in every way

Unfortunately I understand Chinese more than Japanese.

The Chinese character there means something like "Accept" So I guess it means (and this is a guess) something like "don't accept inferior products".

Heh, I'm probably totally wrong.

[Maureen Souza]

I haven't seen any announcements........ have I missed something?

Just trying to help pass the time until your big announcement is made. That's what Mods do...try to be helpful.

Now go have a dance.

Maybe he's going to zap the whole thread.

You know these old guys when they get behind the wheel/lighting bolt.


;) :p

Just going by your avatar here. ;)

[Maureen Souza]

He's actually very nice. He loaned me his 40D and then wouldn't take it when I tried to give it back ;)

I am buying the 50D when it is released in a couple of weeks so I will ship the 40D back to him :)

Thanks again, Tom!!!

No problem. Actually, I should have given you the EF-S lenses. I have no use for them without a crop body. I guess I wasn't thinking clearly.

We know you're joking. Be thankful.:lol::lol:

[Stealthy Ninja]

Yeah, I've gotten in "trouble" before on this forum because some people thought I wasn't joking. I've learned to be more careful.

Now, to avoid lightening bolts from the old gods of the forum.

Umm, yeah, the 5D mkII, sure looks good. Yep. ;)

[Maureen Souza]

Looks like I might be making 2 purchases soon...... :) & the old 5D will be up for sale.;)

[Stealthy Ninja]

I read somewhere a new 100-400mm will come out too. Maybe.

[Trainboy]

No problem. Actually, I should have given you the EF-S lenses. I have no use for them without a crop body. I guess I wasn't thinking clearly.
If you want to get rid of that EF-S 600mm, I'd happily receive it! ;)

[Jim G]

I read somewhere a new 100-400mm will come out too. Maybe.

What with all these lenses rumoured to be coming out with the 5D II Canon must have been working overtime for the past year or so... 24-70L IS, 100-400L II etc. :p

[FlyingPhotog]

JMO but the 100-400 really could use a tweak...

Seals of some kind plus the current generation of IS would be nice. Hell, I'd even settle for a constant f/4.5 ... ;)

[TheHoff]

What the hell turned my serious thread of oracle like predictions into a barn dance?!


What with all these lenses rumoured to be coming out with the 5D II Canon must have been working overtime for the past year or so... 24-70L IS, 100-400L II etc. :p

Hah, no doubt. Let's list all of the rumored releases in one place...

Canon 3D
Canon 5D II
Canon 7D
Canon 1DMk3n
Canon 1DMk4

added:

Canon 9D via gjl711.com (see what I did there, I made you sound like a source)

(we know at least one of the above is coming, possibly 2, but not 3 or more)

24/ 1.4 II
35/ 1.4 II
24 - 70 / 2.8 IS
100 - 400 / 4-5.6 IS
24 TSE II
45 TSE II
90 TSE II
50 / 1.2 II
135 / 2 IS


What else am I missing that is supposedly coming out?

[gjl711]

Hoff.. you forgot the 9D. ;)

[herbe_nelson]

how about an EF 180 f2.8L IS USM MACRO?

[PiRho]

So... who has the countdown watch?

[PiRho]

is this correct? anyone want to propose a better estimate?

Shouldn't it be the time of the press conference in Europe? Or is there an earlier one in Japan?

[PiRho]

that sounds good.... but what time is said press conference?

[Sockelphotography]

Shooting mostly weddings, I'm definitely interesting in picking up the 'new' 5D to compliment my 1D2n and 1D3. Canon really needs to hit a home run with this camera. Nikon press has been killing us long time and well investied fans of Canon. I'm more concerned with image quality and extreme low noise. The continuing megapixel 'wars' do not bring much to the table. For Wedding and Portraiture I was doing great work with 6 and 8mp canon bodies! The archival side of 10, 12, 16, 21 and soon 24mp (if you can afford it) is crazy. I'm approaching 4TB of RAW and everything else that goes with an event storage.

[conbu19]

it's 5am,wedensday,in tokyo,as i type this. when do we figure? 9am tokyo time?

[a_kraker99]

Just figure on hearing an announcement Tomorrow night and then you will be excited when you get an early announcement.

[Nortelbert]

that sounds good.... but what time is said press conference?

I think it's 9 AM in Cologne (Koln), Germany. That is +1 from GMT

[PiRho]

hahahahaha good idea.... but it's not working! LOL

I think it's 9 AM in Cologne (Koln), Germany. That is +1 from GMT

ok. that helps some! I have got to just go watch a movie... or two to distract myself from thinking about 'the announcement' !!! :lol:

[sadatk]

I don't think the press conference matters, only the NDA expiration time which is usually 12am EST going from the past.

[PiRho]

aahhh good point! that would be the most important time.... and you are correct my NDA DOES expire at midnight :D but I am not going to stay up late just to be the first one to post anything :P :D

[scokar]

aahhh good point! that would be the most important time.... and you are correct my NDA DOES expire at midnight :D but I am not going to stay up late just to be the first one to post anything :P :D

is your NDA even with canon?? :)

[Nortelbert]

Oops... Photokina is in Koln, the press conference is in Sweden (same time zone)

[Nortelbert]

is your NDA even with canon?? :)

I have an NDA with HP :-)

[conbu19]

it's 11:30 in Cologne right now,Wed. 17:35 edt

[PiRho]

so we should see some info in 30 minutes or so?


W00T! :D

[gjl711]

so we should see some info in 30 minutes or so?


W00T! :DReally?

[TheHoff]

Really?

Going by the 50D announcement, it was 6 AM in Sweden, I think, so about 9 PM here (PST). Check all of the first 50D threads and they were posted around 9-10 pm that evening.

Yup, and currently its about 10pm GMT, so we have roughly another 7 hours if history is any indication.

[TheHoff]

Yup, and currently its about 10pm GMT, so we have roughly another 7 hours if history is any indication.

Or 6 hours if mathematics is more of an indicator.

[Sfordphoto]

GAH 6-7:50 hours is too long

both those announcements were on tuesday though...

[timnosenzo]

Or 6 hours if mathematics is more of an indicator.

......? I guess it depends on whether they announce it at 4 or 5, no?

[sadatk]

I think dpreview forgot to adjust for DST. We had the 50D threads start to pop up at midnight est.

Tim -- assuming they are using the same press room and press schedules since it is also for Photokina, I'm going off of the time of the 50D announcement.

Pretty surprised they've been able to keep any real details quiet. I mean, we usually have some hacked, obscure website in a different language to pour over a few days in advance. What's the deal? :(

I would like to point out to potential purchasers that the all-purpose complaint thread has been posted and you are invited to voice your opinion there:

That is the least helpful reply, ever. Thank you for taking the time to post it here :P

[SF Lights]

The announcement is going to be how long from now?

[Dusty]

The announcement is going to be how long from now?

In around/just over 5 hours by my calc's.

[SF Lights]

This is so exciting, we should have a countdown going on the POTN main forum page.

no,no hidden message,i just thought on a whim if the exposition of the camera was truly about to happen,say, within 6-8 hours that perhaps i might catch someone up in Lake Success drowsing a bit and get a "real" answer about the new camera(how's that for a run on sentence!)You know,Liz is tired,it's been a rough week,what with all the new gear being released and maybe,just maybe,she says,"ahh,the heck with Corporate,I'm gonna tell this guy he can get his new camera for christmas"

You need to get them three ghosts to help you show Mr. Canon the light.

I saw a hidden message.

I e-mailed Canon in Lake Success an hour or so ago,my original question to her is at the bottom of her reply;)

Thank you for contacting Canon product support concerning our new
products.

At this moment there is no information available regarding a new product
announcement in this category. Please keep in mind however, that Canon
continuously reviews its product lineup and as new products are
introduced, existing models are often taken out of production. We
recommend you check our website from time to time to learn of new
announcements.

I apologize about any inconvenience this may cause.

Thank you for choosing Canon.

Sincerely,

Liz

If you take the first letter of the first word in each line this secret message appears:

TPAACIREITSLTSIYUM8

Which means: Today Probably An Accurate Canon is Returning Eventually. It takes some ligitimate time sending it your ultimate M8.

Which means. Canon have bought Leica and are bringing out the new M8. Called M8 Ultimate!!!!

:shock:
