Alright, it looks like Sep 15th will be THE Date.

[bomzai]

Canon s#x, and it looks like they are delaying already late anouncement to the latest minute.

So looking back at 2006 anouncement dates - Sep. 15th will be the day they tell us whether there will be 5D Mark II and 1D Mark III N or not.

[nicksan]

I heard it was Sept 47th.

[Nortelbert]

The answer to everything is 42.

My dyslexia says "24"... so that makes the date September 24, the second day of Photokina.

What do I win?

[Permagrin]

The real question is "what will we talk about come October 1?"

[Colorblinded]

Halloween?

who's got one?
what's wrong with it?
who's switching to another brand?

(am I close?) :lol:

You forgot "Does it focus?"

[Imaginos]

The real question is "what will we talk about come October 1?"
The 60D and 7D Mark II. It's never too soon to spread rampant speculation.

I think August 25th "chosen" because it was at the top of the hat. Soooo, unless something interesting happens later this week, we'll just pass the hat again and press on like normal.

I heard the 7D Mark II can float (with an L lens attached, of course).

[bomzai]

The real question is "what will we talk about come October 1?"

Ummm... that Canon did not give us remote flash control from pop-up flash and weather sealing on 5DMKII and 50D... Whaaaaa... ;)

Does this lens make my but look big?

[mattograph]

Or a mirror lock up button.

Hey, what happens August 2016 -- are they really gonna call that camera the 100D?

[wimg]

Does this lens make my but look big?
Nah, it'll make your calves look huge.

:D

Kind regards, Wim

[Nortelbert]

Especially if you messed with the new micro-AF adjustments... I can see all the "HELP! ASAP..." threads now as people can't help fiddling with them an hour before shooting their very first wedding ;-)

[bomzai]

Of course! The Rebels will be in 10Ks by that time.

[mattograph]

So, in February 2112 (veiled Rush reference) I will be purchasing a 300D. Fantastic.

I am so switching to Nikon.:confused:

[Imaginos]

I am so switching to Nikon.:confused:Forget about your silly whim. It doesn't fit the plan.

Good luck with that D30 you're sure to end up with. ;)

[mattograph]

Well, if I have to wait until I am 156, there won't be much point in doing it then.

*Slaps forehead, finally seeing Canon Plan for Global Domination*

That's right buddy. Just drink the koolaid and everything will be fine. We promise.

[gjl711]

Is it cherry koolaid?

[bacchanal]

*Slaps forehead, finally seeing Canon Plan for Global Domination*

C'mon man, it's the future. We'll all be bionic in a few decades anway. 156 will be the new 35. Hmm, I wonder if they'll make bionic EF mounts.

[Imaginos]

Is it cherry koolaid?
By the second gulp, you won't care.

[mattograph]

That's right buddy. Just drink the koolaid and everything will be fine. We promise.

I'd prefer a Fanta. The Fanta girls are hella hot!!!

[AdamJL]

Don't forget, supposedly the 5D replacement will not be the EOS 3D we've all been waiting for. That's for spring next year. So we'll have that to discuss!

[rang]

Oh Gawd...Canon please get rid of that damn print button. I hope to live long enough to see that happen.

[mattograph]

Has anyone EVER actually used the damn thing??

[sadatk]

I use the print button more than the shutter release.

[mattograph]

I use the print button more than the shutter release.

Wait.... I can ...... no...... okay, that works because...... no.......



Huh?

[gjl711]

Has anyone EVER actually used the damn thing??I think I pressed it once to see what it does and I believe it instantly caused my camera to start front focusing. ;)

[mattograph]

I pressed mine, and Chuck Westfall called and told me to stop it.

We will be living in planet Dino by then (because the Earth died)

[JouerCanon]

I thought about pressing mine and Chuck Norris came out of nowhere and roundhouse kicked my face... then he ate my camera.

[AdamJL]

^ hahahahaha

Well played!

[CoolToolGuy]

Regular as clockwork.

You're so close it isn't even funny :rolleyes:

Wait - it is funny :D

Well, maybe not :confused:

In any case, one could probably cut and paste the responses from the intro of any of the prior DSLRs and they would all look the same. . .

Good luck to all and good shooting (especially before the capabilities of your current DSLR magically disappear now that the 50D has been announced :rolleyes:)

Have Fun,

[ulrikft]

The real question is "what will we talk about come October 1?"

"I just shot my cat at iso 51200 with my canon 3d, it is not as clean as my 30d at iso 400, WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS CAM?!"

[Nortelbert]

"I just shot my cat at iso 51200 with my canon 3d, it is not as clean as my 30d at iso 400, WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS CAM?!"

Obviously you were fiddling with the micro-AF adjustment, weren't you?

[jaybird]

Obviously you were fiddling with the micro-AF adjustment, weren't you?

Or maybe they recycled the AF system from the 1DMIII ;)

[Ol' Jalopy]

"I still can't manual focus in live view with the new 50D LCD!!!!!!!!! :evil::evil::evil:"

[BurBunny]

The real question is "what will we talk about come October 1?"

Rebates, of course! Wondering if they will be instant, double or triple this year, complaining about the inevitable price increases just prior to rebates being announced...

[rklepper]

The answer to everything is 42.

But...how long do we have to wait for that one?:D
