Canon S200

Digicame-info (translated) posted a series of images of two new Canon compact cameras. One is named S200, the other is an unknown superzoom camera that could be the replacement for the SX500 (price & specs). Are these the camera that Canon is going to announce on May 31?

The “S200″ is somewhat weird: there has already been a PowerShot S200 in the past.

The successor of the SX500?

SpeedBooster For EOS M? That’s what the videos above and below suggests (by user ckstoa on YouTube). The video above shows an adapter taken from a box with Metabones written on. The used camera is clearly an EOS M (the AF for sure ). In the video below you can clearly see the Metabones logo on the adapter. Is this a prototype undergoing testing? Metabones never mentioned the EOS M mount explicitly, they were just stating that “support for other mounts will be added in the future”.

Interesting news! Would be cool to have a Speed Booster for the Canon EOS M (price & specs). Btw, the EOS M used in the videos has Magic Lantern installed on it.

Thanks to the reader who sent in the link.

Dutch website eoszine.nl posted a press event notification on Twitter. They say that Canon Netherlands will hold a press event on May 31. What to expect? Hardly a new DSLR, i.e. the highly anticipated EOS 70D, or new lenses. Most probably Canon will announce new printers and video gear. But then: who knows.
