If you are an astronomy photography buff, you certainly know that most current photo cameras include a digital imaging sensor which is very sensitive to Infra-Red light but which is covered with a filter to remove this. As a matter of fact, the IR sensitivity is annoying in most day-to-day photography situations. But astronomers like…

Download the Canon EOS 60D user manual
We all know how difficult it can be to find the online versions of the SLR photo cameras operator/user manuals in general, and Canon manuals specifically. For a recent photo camera like the Canon EOS 60D, this is somewhat more difficult, and I decided to specially look around for the YLovePhoto readers. Here are the…

Canon EOS 60D: only 2 days left
It seems that the announcement of the Canon EOS 60D will be done on September 26th. Until then, the feature list of the Canon ESO 60D is still a bunch of rumours. In parallel, we have to wait for what will probably be a set of two new high-end tele-photo lenses. Maybe two white pro…

The Short-term DxO Optics Modules Roadmap is very clear: Canon EOS 60D available at most in December 2010. There, it’s no longer a leak, but a confirmation. But, nothing about the feature list, of course… Thanks Liaud.
Photokina 2010: Where Canon goes?
Even for Canon, next September will see the Photokina show in Koln (Germany). It is often the occasion when brands of photo manufacturers launch the photo cameras they expect will be doing the big sales of the end of the year (a period that is really good for the amateur photography market). This year should…
PMA 2010
The PMA in Las Vegas is now arriving fast. After a long time of little rumors, here comes the moment for big rumors, but not the actual revelations yet. Nikon has been telling the world that they intended to have a great year 2010. It seems that they will bring a new DSLR (it could…
Canon EOS 7D, here it is

But read more… Nearly exactly as expected, its features are disclosed now: 18 MP sensor, in APS-C size Dual DIGIC 4 processor 14-bit Analog-to-digital conversion Continuous shooting: 8…
News expected this week
We are told that this Fall is a great time for news on the SLR market. I let you judge by yourself: Canon: one announcement would be a definite possibility to replace the Canon 1D Mk III with a Canon 1D Mk IV and maybe also a Canon EOS 7D whose top cover and a…
New cameras spotted all around
There is a bizarre rush for visibility in the online shops all around the web. I start to feel that most of them are actual fakes. Let’s check this: Several (accidental?) leaks from Sony web sites, showing Sony Alpha 500, 550, 850 (and possibly Alpha 750, but this one may be a counter-fire). A German…
EOS announcement on 1st September
According to Canon Rumors, we can expect an announcement on the 1st September in the Canon EOS line of digital photo cameras.
Next Canon on August 19
According to Canon Rumors and a Danish web site, the next round of Canon annoucements (Point’n Shoots and EOS) will be done on August 19. For me, it would probably be the launch of the long-expected Canon EOS 60D due to replace the existing Canon EOS 50D. Normally, in this part of the Canon line,…
Canon predictions
Canon is rather discreet in these times. But 2009 will not end without several important news. What can we expect? Two reflex cameras are about to arrive. A successor to the 50D, the Canon EOS 60D, probably at the end of the year (will it be ready for Christmas? I doubt it). Again, it will…
Canon EOS 60D, again
Canon Rumours proposes a feature list for the next mid-range/high-end amateur reflex Canon camera: Canon EOS 60D. It is expected for next Fall only. Sensor upgraded slightly, but still 15.1 MP. 1080p HD video at 30fps. External mic jack. A newer AF system introduced. Continuous shooting at 8fps.
Canon 60D AF system
According to Canon Rumours, the future Canon EOS 60D will probably be a new autofocus system: Based upon the 1D autofocus, it would be more AF points/zones. Not much more, but it could be significant if Canon is actually creating a new stepping stone for incremental improvements in the mid-range SLR Autofocus system, getting the…
Canon EOS 60D (or EOS 7D)
Photography Bay is showing a list of features for the upcoming replacement of the Canon EOS 50D. Already??? Sure, it seems a bit early to start talking about this one. Did I say rumour? Anyway, here are the (rumoured) features: 15.1MP sensor (no resolution changes, improved IQ?) New 13 Point AF 1080p Movie Mode Continuous…
Cameras delayed for fear of recession
Crisis, recession, deflation, financial crush, layoffs are all words that we hear about on a daily basis. Whatever you feel/think about them, there is a reality: the consumers are buying less. This is as true for photo hardware and software as for the other markets (maybe it’s worse for cars…) Now, this has a clear…
Canon EOS 60D – tentative spec
A current candidate feature set for the Canon EOS 60D includes: Improved LiveView AF to support focus tracking Improved normal AF (additional AF points) Orientable LCD screen (not definite, but easy to do) including a flip up mode to allow ‘from the hip’ shooting HD video mode (already confirmed by Canon), with AF and stereo…
