Today Canon dropped two new tilt-shift lenses that update the previous models that were discontinued recently. The new TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II offers enhanced functionality and image quality in its most popular tilt-shift focal length.

New TS revolving lets users freely combine tilting and shifting within the range of +/- 90° in the direction of movement.

On what is normally a 4 – 4.5 hour drive, Kerry and David endure 6 hours of drive time, very cold weather, the beginnings of a snow storm, and then an hour long wait at the front desk (at midnight) to get their room.

David (http://esquirephotography.com) and I are heading to Las Vegas to attend the big WPPI trade show and convention. This is a HUGE trade show and is full of seminars, workshops, meetups, and tons of things to do and see. We will be doing daily coverage from the show and keep everyone informed of all the cool things that are going on and new products that are getting announced there. You can bet we will be doing our best to get lots of cool things to give away to Camera Dojo readers so stay tuned all next week for updates! If you are heading out there yourself, follow us on twitter (http://twitter.com/kerrygarrison) to see where we are at, come by and say Hi!

I have been counting the days waiting for the announcement so I could get it on my calendar. From the description, I think everyone should attend this as well, David has put together an amazing program and the price is just unreal as well.
