Written by Eric from http://www.photographybay.com/ on September 7th, 2008 | 1 Comment

Several ad spots for the Canon EOS 7D surfaced around the forums today.  Unfortunately for those of you itching to see what’s next from Canon, they look to be faked mockup ads. Good Photoshop work though if they are fake.
