   Great report Kay and great sense of humor.
   I am a great fan of your “no bs” video reports. Thanks to you and other journalists and bloggers like you, manufacturers will hopefully stop spanking monkeys.

   Kai, you crack me up. You need more meat on your bones. Better stick with Leica and Nikon intros.

   september 22, after rabid foreplay, canon with flacid result
   october 26… nothing’s coming…
   sorry about the innuendo but if kai’s reaction represents a canonophile frustration, how easily it can be translated to any nikon hopeful… there’s a conspirary by the big 2 against prosumers… or maybe they haven’t gotten it all together yet…

   I’ve got a lot of time for Kai and his reviews, always funny and always interesting…just tells it as he sees it without all the marketing bull.

   That room was empty… I’m guessing everyone else knew what it was about.

   Did DigitalRev play this up to get publicity?

     Hi genotypewriter,
     “Did DigitalRev play this up to get publicity?”
     Nah, just Kai trying to make a point that no one cares about these launches as they’re waiting for the Mark III.
