What To Expect From Canon For NAB and Beyond

Silver-throated Tanager in Costa Rica

I am back from my Costa Rica Wildlife Photo Tour. It was quite a good tour and I got some very good Hummer photos. Now comes the tough part of processing the pics and getting back to the rhythm of things and writing my blog again.

The NAB Show starts April 22 in Las Vegas. This show features the latest in video and broadcasting equipment and technologies. Canon is expected to announce a new Cinema zoom lens for their camcorders plus a less expensive version of the C300 Mark II camera will be introduced later this year. A new EF 85mm f/1.4L IS lens is also coming.

Also the major firmware update to the EOS-5D Mark IV will be announced around the Show as well. For what to expect from Canon for the remaining of this year and beyond, read my earlier post on this subject.

What To Expect From Canon For the Remainder Of 2017 & Beyond

I am back from my Japan Wildlife Photo Tour. It will take me a while to catch up on things while I was away and process the photos. So far behind on my editing. This is already my third tour of 2017 and I have another one coming up before the end of March. You can follow my travels on Facebook and Twitter.
