If you have pre-ordered the new EOS-1D X Digital SLR Camera
Body and have yet to receive it, well… I know where it is!
You’ll find it all, including my pre-ordered 24-70mm f/2.8L
II USM Zoom Lens, at the Canon Professional Services locker at the Olympic Park
in London, England. They are all stacked up as CPS prepares for the London 2012 Olympics.

Meanwhile the Associated Press just released a VIDEO showing the set up of robotic cameras
for the summer games. AP staffer
David Phillip says they’ll have robotic units in twelve Olympic venues
including two underwater robotic cameras that will be placed in the swimming and
diving pools.
“Eight years ago, in Athens, we were limited to a static
camera that we had fixed at the bottom of the pool, wait till competition was
over, dive in, retrieve the card and then edit the images and transmit them.
With this new system we are able to get real-time images transferred as
competition is going on.” Phillips said.
It's going to be tough to beat that!
Go Team USA!
Go Team USA!
