Could be a 3D could be a 2D could be photo shopped, could be custom embroidered strap to fool you people. We won't know probably for a while.

Seems implausible that Canon would manufacture a strap with a conspicuous "3D" printed on it when they go through great lengths to keep their new models secret during field testing.

...unless it's an intentional leak (and maybe even attached to a not fully-baked camera) to halt any defections to a D800?

I mean, as much as the 5dMKIII is a great camera, it seems to be going for a different target than the D800. You're probably not going to halt many 5DMKIII aspirants from committing... which makes leaking plausible. Now, leaking any hints of a 5DMKIV would be insane and necessarily a fake, IMO.

That horse has left the barn. The D800/E has been out for a year.

The guy programming the stitching machine is "mirror image" dyslexic!!! There's no such thing as a 3D!!! Canon, kind of like 7Up... "Never had it!!! Never will!!!"

With the years of dreams, the 3D needs to be "Super-spec'd"!!! Here's to hoping...

Oh please, listen to yourself.

Intentional leak? If Canon wanted the information out there, they'd make an official statement. Can you give me one reason (not borne of baseless conspiracy) for Canon to surreptitiously make this information available as opposed to making an official statement that they have something in the works?

Uh, perhaps when said item isn't actually ready for prime-time for whatever reason (and may not ever be), and they don't want to be hit with anti-trust charges for precisely the reason they might want to announce (to stem whatever flow to the D800)?

It seems like both of you are completely unfamiliar with the concept and real-life instances of vaporware.

That's not conspiracy theory, that's business-as-usual.

Canon would just pre-announce it then, the same as they did with the 1DX.

Perhaps. But pre-announcement, regardless of whether it has been done before, still runs the risk of an anti-trust charge. I do not know what the specific criteria that would call for such charges would be, but the higher-volume nature of the D800/3D class of cameras is obviously more consequential for all involved parties.

Also consider that in this day-and-age, a rumor-by-photograph has longer legs and better flexibility than a corporate announcement. With the latter, people often start extrapolating (often erroneously, often negatively) about a product's whatever-left-unannounced specs after an official announcement. I'd say the rumor-by-photograph is the smarter way of doing things, by teasing the imagination and leaving everything completely open to discussion, but with zero associable weight... but that's just me.

Much ado about nothing. If it is real I'll bet it's just the strap for an EOS-30.

One of the 'late-model' film cameras.

Canon didn't start printing the model name on straps until around the EOS 50D. Before hand, it would say "Canon", "Canon EOS" or "Canon EOS Digital"

I remember this came up on a different board and people were like "I tried taking a photo once, but it wasn't very good. So I just went back to doing what I do best "
