Kodak announced that is discontinuing the Professional T-MAX P3200 film due to “low sales volume“. In the past few months Kodak stopped producing digital cameras, sold its sensor business, increased the price of film by 15%, and discontinued three slide films in an effort to reorganize its business.
Both Adorama and B&H currently have the T-MAX P3200 in stock.
A Canon EOS 3D entry showed up earlier today on B&H website (now removed). The camera was listed to have a 46.1MP sensor in a 1 series body, just like the rumors from the past few weeks.

Those are the top 10 PhotoRumors posts for September 2012:
Sony announced few changes in the specifications of the anticipated Sony RX1 full frame compact camera (available for pre-order):
Adorama has some crazy sales today. In addition to the Nikon 1 V1 kit for $399, they are also selling the Sony NEX-5N kit with 18-55 lens for $419 (regular price: $698, deal available only through this link).
Another good deal today is the Canon EOS 5D Mark II for $1,799.
Update: the kit is now sold out, but the Sony NEX-5N body only is reduced to $369.
I already reported on the upcoming Samsung NX-R and NX300 mirrorless cameras. The two models are already listed on Samsung’s website ahead of the expected announcement in Q1 of 2013.
Hoocap has a new product that combines a lens hood and a lens cap into one clever device. The pictured Hoocap is for the Sony NEX 16mm lens, but the company is developing also similar products for Leica, Canon and Nikon lenses. The Hoocap is available on eBay for $49 (currently only for Canon lenses).
Kenko Tokina announced a new macro ring flash KSR-EF10 Soluis. The price in Japan is set to ¥18,300 (around $230).
The rumored 46.1MP Canon DSLR will most likely be a 1 series body (similar to the 1D X and 1D C):
In an update to the high MP info, we’re told [thanks] that a camera will eventually appear in a 1D X derived body, in the same way as the 1D C. The information said that the actual designation was not known, but it would essentially be a ‘1 series’.
