Canon announces three new cameras that interest me. The EOS-5D mark II, Powershot G10, and the Powershot SX10IS, in that very order! Canon also has a new 24mm F/1.4 L USM lens coming out in December for a cool $1699. Are you paying attention Sony?
I’ve completed the updates on all the lens reviews, except the Nikon kit lens, and I’ll hold off on that one until I’m done with the comparison review of the Sony, Nikon and Canon kit lenses, look for it late next week or so.
Up next is a review of the Minolta AF 50mm F/1.7 restyled version, you see these all over eBay, usually selling around $130. Look for it Sunday or Monday.
