One hopes that the reasoning given is wholly truthful but I doubt that people are oblivious of the tremendous in roads that Nikon, Sony and some would even argue Olympus have made into Canon’s market share. For those Canon users one hopes that they will continue to fly the flag for their supporters. We will have to wait until after PMA to see if it is a mistake or not but one thing is for sure, rumours are flying fast and furious that Canon SA wont miss the 2010 Photo & Film Expo.
