If you were waiting for something earthshaking to be announced yesterday, you will be disappointed.

It seems Canon Hong Kong announced the availability of the Canon Powershot G1X Mark II [shoplink 19768](price & specs)[/shoplink] in Hong Kong and China, nothing else. It’s not uncommon for Canon to announce their gear on a regional basis after it was announced world-wide.

The Canon Powershot G1 X II has been officially announced February 12th, and can be pre-ordered for $799 at Amazon | B&H Photo | Adorama. Availability: May 2014.

The user manual for the new Canon Powershot G1X Mark II can be downloaded here.

Confluence – A Documentary Shot in Idaho By Philip Bloom Using Canon EOS 7D and 5D Mark II

The above 53 minutes documentary was shot by Philip Bloom using a Canon EOS 7D [shoplink 337](price & specs)[/shoplink] and EOS 5D Mark II [shoplink 254](price & specs)[/shoplink] some time ago. Now it is free to view for anyone.

About the documentary:

The Lewiston / Clarkston valley has a rich history. It is here, at the confluence of the Clearwater and Snake Rivers, where Lewis and Clark camped on their westward journey over two hundred years ago. Residents boast that the valley is the gateway to Hells Canyon, that Lewiston was Idaho’s first capital. However, the valley also has a much darker past, one that many know about, but few publicly acknowledge. From 1979 to 1982, five people disappeared. Only three of the bodies have ever been found. All share one suspect.

I drove thru this beautiful valley last year while crossing the USA. I was invited by friends in Idaho, and I took this route to join them.
