During the time the 5D Mark III enjoyed its time in the limelight, experiencing image leak after specification outing, the Canon T4i was also receiving a lot of buzz from the rumor-mills, shaping up to quietly be announced alongside its bigger brother. However, as the multiple rumored announcement dates passed, it was clear we were going to have to wait a bit longer for a 600D successor, a wait that might finally be coming to a close fairly shortly.
In a day and age where time travel is a reality, but still yet to be sanctioned for official public use by the government, the mob and other criminal enterprises take to the black market and illegally exploit the technology for a number of uses. One of the exploits is to employ the services of hitmen whom reside 30 years in the past, awaiting a target sent from the future in which to “mop up.”

It seems as though those same sentiments were also felt by the good folks at PetaPixel, reminding us of the absolutely behemoth-like super-telephoto from Carl Zeiss which was first debuted at Photokina 2006 – the Apo Sonnar T* 1700mm f/4.
After last week’s private Sony event was proven to be not-so-private due to the vast NEX-F3 and Alpha A37 image leaks which surfaced, it was only a matter of time before each camera’s specification revelations soon followed.
On May 17th, 2012, Sony will officially announce the above-mentioned respective entry-level NEX and Alpha models alongside two zoom lenses – the 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS, and 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 SAM, the latter of which will be priced at or around $500.00.
It’s that time of the week to take a step back from the industry news and showcase the incredible talent of our loyal readers. Hand selected from The Digital Visual Flickr Group, here are the selections for this round of The Week in Reader Photos.
