Canon Rebel T7i: [shopcountry 43813]
At a glance:
ePhotozine reviewed the new Canon Rebel T7i (EOS 800D in Europe).
From the conclusion:
The Canon EOS 800D offers a significant upgrade to the 750D, and we’re pleasantly surprised by the improvements made in handling, design, and focus speeds, both in live view and normal shooting modes. Improvements have been made in continuous shooting speeds, as well as the ISO range available. There’s also a new user interface, making the camera easier to use for beginners. However, there’s still a lack of two command dials, something that really would be good to see (even on basic DSLRs), especially as a number of entry level mirrorless cameras (and compact cameras) offer dual controls.
They liked the 45 points AF system, handling, the user interface and the help mode for beginners, and the impressive Live View performance. Read the review.

We got word Canon is working on a new “L”-grade telephoto lens. The new telephoto lens may be something in the 200-600mm range, with apertures not wider than f/4 nd likely not constant over the zoom range.
Canon has many powerful telephoto lenses in the “L” range of their offering, such as the amazing [shoplink 153]EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS[/shoplink], my favorite travel zoom, or the more far reaching and also heavier [shoplink 25455]EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 IS II[/shoplink], a favorite among wildlife photographer who can not afford or do not want to carry aroud the much heavier telephoto primes from Canon.
An EF 200-600mm lens would be handy for Canon. Sigma and Tamron are already offering lenses in this segment, for instance the popular [shoplink 25432]Sigma 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG OS HSM Sports[/shoplink] or the Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD, both more affordable than comprable Canon offerings.
This was murmured in the past, and got a new mention those days.
Rumor has it that Canon is developing an EF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS lens. Apparently, Canon was already working on this lens and produced some prototypes when the company was developing the [shoplink 2160]EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM[/shoplink]. The lens was not released so far, according to the rumor, because Canon deemed it to be too large and too heavy. Before releasing this lens, Canon will eventually work on reducing size and weight.
That’s all. No suggested announcement date nor specifications.
