Canon is expected to have an announcement on February 9th. Not sure if those cameras will be part of the announcement. Canon will not be part of PMA, but I believe they will still have some new products next month.

In addition, PhotographyBay discovered two patent applications from Canon for sensor-based Image stabilization and dual image viewfinder.

    Nikon give me a metal body with a swivel screen too! Preferably with a full frame sensor please. Hey wait, this isn’t nikonrumors.com is it?

    Swivel screen is just plain sweet! I first had it on FZ30 and I enjoyed it every bit. It’s non-sense that is fragile, and attacks on camera’s integrity. It’s just plain useful, ergonomic, handy, fast, convenient, enjoying and fun to use. I’m positive that in a few years (sadly) ALL respectable cameras and not only will eventually have a swivel screen. Not to mention, when the OLED will be THE Screen, with a slick and sturdy aluminum back, which won’t add anything to the thickness of the camera, it’ll be just…perfect. I can’t wait!

      The truth is that Live View without swivel screen is totally pointless.
      (that’s between many the reason why I never understood Nikon/Canon approach to Live View, where not only it had unusable AF but also you couldn’t move the screen, so point of having it on tripod or high/low scenes was totally missing)

    Oh, and I forgot…I’m a Nikon user/lover, but way to go Canon! Bravo!
