Canon and Sony News for Aug 2010 (Page 2)
The latest word from Canon Germany is that USM motors and electrical parts are no longer available for all of the pre-1999 Super Telephoto Lenses (the non-IS models), and therefore, these lenses have been removed from Canon Germany CPS service.
These models include the 200 f/1.8, 300 f/2.8, 400 f/2.8, 400 f/2.8 II, 500 f/4.5 and 600 f/4.0. (thanks Ralf)
Ralf thinks we will see some new, larger lens mugs coming in the near future.
Details are not available, but B&H has confirmed that the Canon EF 1200mm L USM Lens I reviewed in New York City last year has indeed been sold.
If you bought it, we all want to know what you are using it for!
Canon USA's Rudy Winston delivers a series of What's on the Canon EOS 7D Menu videos at B&H.
Since many menu options are common across DSLRs, you may find the videos helpful even if you do not own a 7D.
