Canon press release:
Canon U.S.A. has launched the Cinema EOS C500 4K Digital Cinema Camera Menu Simulator. Developed by the Canon Digital Learning Center (CDLC), the EOS C500 Menu Simulator is a fully interactive platform that allows users to familiarize themselves with the camera’s Main Menu and Custom Picture Menu.
With this innovative training tool, prospective users of the EOS C500 can navigate the simulated menu system with a mouse, keyboard arrow keys or their fingers (when using a touch screen device). Ideal for cinematographers, camera operators, camera assistants, producers, and directors, the Menu Simulator provides a platform to research camera behavior and features.
For added convenience, the EOS C500 Menu Simulator has been optimized for use on personal computers and tablet devices so it can be used at home, on set, or on-the-go.

juzaphoto posted a comprehensive hands-on review of a pre-production Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS 1.4x, the lens that’s still not available to the public. No sample pics have been published, it is not allowed by Canon. One interesting fact, they write:
Now it is getting close to release: if everything goes well, it should reach the market in mid 2014.
Mid of 2014? This is new! We didn’t have any hint that Canon may release the Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS 1.4x in mid 2014. That is another delay. Will this lens ever be released?
In the conclusion they write:
A lens like that has its pros and cons. Its zoom range is very versatile; AF is fast, and the built-in teleconverter is handy. The main cons are its weight – it is similar to the big 600 f/4 – and the f/4 aperture. In very low light a 300 f/2.8 or 400 f/2.8 have an advantage, even tough with recent cameras as the 1DX you have such great ISO capabilities that you can compensate a bit for the one stop difference.
Even though personally I am a big fan of the 300 f/2.8, I can see two potential customers for this lens: sport photographers and the nature photographer that shoots mainly from hides or car, as in safaris. In these cases the weight of this lens is not a problem, since you don’t have to carry it around, and the versatility of the 200-560mm zoom range is a great plus.
One last thought is about price and availability. Canon has not said anything about price, but it won’t be cheap – my bet is between $9000 and $10000 […]
