Let me start by saying I have no liking for C***n, have never used one and have no intention of using or promoting their product. Having got that said, I saw a reference on a chat site to the following: http://eosseries.ifrance.com/eosseries/lenscanon/news_en.htm >Canon : The new season will be hot ? [06/15/2001] >Will be the new season hot ?? In september we may see some news : >- The new SLR digital pro body based on the EOS 1V which includes a 6MP >sensor, a focal ratio of 1,3 (1,6 for the D30). It's still not the size of a >24x36mm. The body will be composed by a CCD sensor. The price is supposed to >be twice the D30 price. >- A new wide-angle zoom 16-35 f/2,8 >- And the long awaited... EF 70-200/2,8L IS USM ! >Somebody have told me that this is confidential informations from Canon ! >We will see that in september !! Come on Pentax - get your full frame out onto the market and be a market LEADER again before everyone else does it! Also for those constructing their own digital back for Pentax SLR, this obviously uses a sensor which is closer to full frame and may be of interest.
