    Default Are we going to see the 1D-Mk4 by end of September???

    Saw this on a few sites now already...

    "During this fall, Canon will make one of its largest and most important launches in the company’s history and we hope you can attend. During a luncheon, you are invited to listen to CEO Jouko Tuouminen, Marketing presiden Monica Forsberg and trend analyst Magnus Lindkvist, talking about tomorrows trends and factors of success in the continually more digitalized everyday life.

    Date: September 29
    Time: 11 am- 1pm"

    It will be interesting to see what the announcement is about. Hard to believe that a company as diverse as Canon will see the 1DMK4 as "one of its largest and most important launches in the company’s history". The next 1 series may be that important to us photographers, but Canon makes a lot of products for a lot of industries.

    This rumor has been floating around since mid-June, and I doubt it's a new camera.... more than likely it's a new printer or copier or something. I doubt that Canon's Swedish office would be given a release of the magnitude of a 1D IV...

    I haven't even read something as follow-up to this. guess we'll have to wait for Tuesday but it makes sense that it might not be a photographic announcement.

    Did you get invited to the release announcement of the Mark III?

    When I lived in NY I got invited to help clean-up the basement at Canon USA. :) :) :)

    My biggest claim to fame was that I did a TV commercial for the EOS-1V. It aired worldwide.

    I think it'll still sell at $4,000 like the 1D3 was sold for. They have too considering a lot of factors like say Nikon.
