Alongside the new full frame EOS 6D, Canon unveiled a pair of new printers – the PIXMA PRO-10 and PIXMA PRO-100.
These new models are built in the same vein of the flagship PIXMA PRO-1 that was released last fall. The new PRO-10 and PRO-100 feature a new “PRO Mode” that maps color gamut for optimum balance of brightness and saturation.
According to Canon this PRO Mode “helps adjust colors by taking into consideration the characteristics of human perception. The technology helps to create prints that accurately reflect the image as seen on a monitor without needing a high level understanding of color management.” Canon says that this PRO Mode should also be available as a firmware upgrade to the PIXMA PRO-1 in early 2013.
The PIXMA PRO-10 and PIXMA PRO-100 will retail for $699 and $499, respectively, when they hit the market (no word yet on when specifically that will be).

The Canon PowerShot SX50 HS is the latest superzoom from Canon, and packs a whopping 50x zoom lens. The SX50 HS features a 12.1MP CMOS sensor, DIGIC 5 image processor (for faster AF and shot-to-shot times) and a 2.8-inch vari-angle LCD.
Additionally, the SX50 HS will capture 1080p HD video and 12-bit RAW images. The new superzoom also sports a hot shoe for Canon Speedlites.

The Canon PowerShot S110 is the compact camera follow-up to the very solid S100. The S110 features a 12.1MP CMOS sensor and a 5x optical zoom lens (24-120mm equivalent) with a bright f/2 aperture on the wide end. Canon also steps up the speed in AF and shot-to-shot times in the S110 thanks to the DIGIC 5 image processor.
The S110 uses built-in WiFi to connect with iOS and Android devices, which you can use to upload your images to social networks via the free Canon CameraWindow app.
The S110 captures full 1080p HD video and features a 3-inch capacitive touch panel LCD, as well as RAW image capture.
The Canon S110 should be available in October for $449.99. Check availability here at B&H Photo.
The Canon PowerShot G15 picks up where the G12 left off and steps up the game for the serious compact camera line with a f/1.8-2.8 5x optical zoom lens (28-140mm equivalent) and faster AF and shot-to-shot times.
The G15 sports a conservative 12.1MP CMOS sensor and Canon DIGIC 5 image processor, while offering max ISO speeds up to 12,800 and 1080p HD video capture. The G15 continues the serious feature set of a hot shoe for Canon Speedlites and an optical viewfinder, as well as a 3-inch 922k-dot res LCD.
The Canon G15 should be available in October for $499.99. Check availability here at B&H Photo.
Canon finally took the wraps off the long-awaited EOS 6D, which is the latest full frame DSLR in Canon’s EOS lineup. The 6D gets Canon’s lowest retail pricepoint for a full frame shooter at $2099, which just happens to be the same price of the new Nikon D600.
The Canon 6D features a new 20.2MP CMOS sensor and a DIGIC 5+ processor. Additionally, the Canon 6D sports an 11-point AF system, a 3-inch LCD and the ability to capture HD movies at 1080p in 24p/30p. The 6D features a wide sensitivity range of ISO 100-25600 (or ISO 50-102400 with expansion).
The Canon 6D eschews the CF format for memory – opting for SDXC cards instead (another first for a full frame Canon DSLR). Additionally, the 6D offers built-in GPS with image tagging and tracking modes available.
The Canon 6D should be available in December 2012 for $2099. It is also available as a kit with the solid EF 24-105mm f/4L IS lens for $2899. Check availability here at B&H Photo.
