It seems that the new EOS 650D/T4i could be announced soon. Amazon UK, Amazon France, Amazon Germany and Amazon Canada (and possibly other Amazon shops too) have a “Canon 650D for dummies” listed (in French, and not yet available). The book will be released May, 17th.
The EOS 650D/Rebel T4i will most probably have a 18.1MP sensor, DIGIC V image processor, improved ISO performance, built-in WiFi, a touchscreen and a new AF functionality for video recording. I always thought that the EOS 650D/T4i would be released for Photokina, but the EOS 650D book showing up at Amazon made me change my mind. I mean, next week there is NAB and Amazon shops list a book that will be released short after? Cannot be a coincidence. If true, this is a good time to check for EOS 600D/T3i deals.

UPDATE: found another two good deals (memory cards):
Update: B&H (click here) and Adorama (click here) have the EF 70-300 f/4-5.6L IS USM for $1,599.00.
Great deals by Amazon The EF 70-300 f/4-5.6L IS USM and EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6L IS USM (only 3 left) lenses respectively 40% and 37% off Amazon’s list price.

So, we are close to the beginning of NAB 2012, and rumors bout what Canon could and/or will announce are getting hotter.
It’s almost sure that Canon will announce “something new”, but what will it be? Most rumor-mills take for granted that Canon will announce a 4K DSLR. But that’s not all we can probably expect. See what I collected strolling around the Internet and evaluating information that was sent to me.

Foremost, a warning: do not tear down your 5D Mark III if you do not have the necessary technical skills (and be sure that you will need them to do it). The hack discussed in this post voids warranty and may severely damage your camera. That said, read on.
The issue that EOS 5D Mark III bodies seem to have with light leaking from the top LCD-panel is getting in a new round. Ron Risman at cameratown did some extensive testing to trace down the problem and provides test shots to illustrate the issue. The bad news: the light leak on the 5D Mark III goes beyond the LCD panel (says Risman):
