Canon’s “The Story Beyond The Still” Final Short Film

January 25, 2011 By Eric Reagan

If you’ve not been keeping up with The Story Beyond The Still contest, the final short chapter launched at Sundance earlier this week.  You can see the entire short film above with a total run time that’s a couple ticks under 38 minutes.

Lots more on Vincent Laforet’s site.  Also, there’s a great recap of the work on the final chapter from Ryan Booth, one of the chapter directors, here on his blog.

What Do You Want in the Canon 5D Mark III?

January 13, 2011 By Eric Reagan

While speaking with a Canon rep at CES last week, I jokingly asked if I could see the new 5D Mark III?

We started talking about how much I’ve enjoyed my 5D Mark II.  And, then, he asked what I would want to see in the 5D Mark II’s successor? [Read more…]

Canon 5D Price Dropping

October 27, 2008 By Eric Reagan

The Canon 5D Mark II has not even begun to ship yet and we’re already seeing the original Canon 5D take a hit in price.  Just last week, I noticed the Canon 5D + EF 24-105mm L lens was around $2700 for the kit at Amazon.  Now, the original 5D combo is available for $2590.  Also, the Canon 5D body is now selling for under $2k.

So, if you can’t swing a 5D Mark II, you might consider the original 5D at a substantial discount.  Personally, I’m drooling over the kit’s price point right now.

New Canon DSLR on August 26

August 5, 2008 By Eric Reagan

According to Kamera & Bild, who claims to have notice of the press conference, Canon will be dropping the bombshell on August 26th.  The only question is whether the new EOS will be the Canon 3D, 5D Mark II, 6D, 7D or some other model (or two).

Photography Bay will stay on top of the news and rumors to the bitter end and beyond.  Stay tuned.

Canon 5D Mark II Book on Amazon

May 25, 2008 By Eric Reagan

While we’ve seen signs of a Canon 5D Mark II for a while now, Amazon may have given us some insight to the availability of the 5D Mark II.  The Canon EOS 5D Mark II Digital Field Guide by Charlotte K. Lowrie is currently listed on Amazon and is available for pre-order with November 2008 availability.

The product details indicate that it has an ISBN of 0470409509.  Further confirmation can be found on the publisher’s website, Wiley.com, which indicates the book contains 272 pages and over 200 photos from Lowrie.  Of course, the Canon 5D Mark II doesn’t appear on Amazon, so it looks like just a few more bread crumbs for now; however, one has to wander whether Ms. Lowrie has gotten her hands on the new Canon camera to have her new book ready in time for the camera’s release.  To stay on top of the latest rumors, releases and news, bookmark Photography Bay’s Canon 5D Mark II page or subscribe to the RSS Feed.

Canon 5D Mark II Rumor Update – April 24 Announcement

April 18, 2008 By Eric Reagan

A DPR forum poster dropped in a tidbit of info that he got while shopping for a Canon 5D:

Well, I was a bit sceptical about all the 5d MKII rumours. I stepped into my local camera shop as I was about to buy the current 5D when the salesman said I should rather wait until the 24th of April as the worldwide launch of the new 5D is happening then. (via)

As some astute forum members pointed out, this may be a situation where the salesman is just reading rumors online and pumping them up a bit.  See this previous rumor on an April 22nd announcement.

Regardless of the propriety of this recent rumor, stay tuned to the Canon 5D Mark II Rumors page for the latest updates.
