It looks like the Canon 1D Mark IV has commenced shipping in the US and Canada. I’ve seen several user reports of folks taking delivery across the photo forums and blogosphere. Rob Galbraith has posted the same news today as well.
Some of the biggest camera retailers have yet to update their stock status for the 1D Mark IV, which suggests that the shipments are still rolling out.
You can continue to check availability at the following trusted retailers:
Stay tuned over the next few days, as we should see the stock continue to update at US retailers.

I’ve tried a number of digital photo frames; however, I’ve always hated the process of updating the photos by putting files on an SD card and then having to transfer them over to the internal memory of the frame. eStarling may have a solution with their new TouchConnect Wi-Fi photo frame. This new frame allows you to update your frame wirelessly and automatically through a variety of online services.
The eStarling TouchConnect boasts integration with Facebook, Flickr, Picasa, RSS Feeds and Gmail. With an easy, one-time set up an eStarling TouchConnect can receive photos (and videos up to 20MB in size if e-mailed to the corresponding Gmail address) from all these places as they are posted. And with 802.11n WiFi, a touch-sensitive screen and automatic over-the-air firmware updates, the eStarling TouchConnect is one of the most user friendly frames on the market. -eStarling
The eStarling TouchConnect is available from Adorama at a current price of $200.

Photocrati has published a review of the popular Canon G11 point and shoot camera.
In my estimation, this 10MP PowerShot model will be as successful as its predecessor in attracting long-time photographers due to its classic styling and controls, high resolution articulated LCD and a feature set that targets the experienced shooter.
You can check out Photocrati’s full review here.
Also, if you haven’t seen it yet, be sure to check out Photography Bay’s Canon G11 review and the Canon G11 Reviews and Resources for more info on this powerful little camera.
