As coronavirus continues to spread, Canon shuts down more of its facilities. After factories in Japan and some repair centers in the US, Canon is now temporarily suspending its Japan headquarters and certain offices and plants.
Canon patent shows giant new LCD flip screen for DSLRs
People have been begging Canon for years to put flippy out (or up) articulated LCDs on their higher end bodies for years. Now it looks like they may have listened. This patent from Canon Japan shows a new rear screen design that looks quite intriguing. As well as the size of the screen, it also shows new mechanisms to attach it to different types of camera body.
One thing strikes me as a little odd, though. The dial normally found on the back of a Canon DSLR sits underneath the LCD. So, it looks like it forces people to flip their LCD out if they wanted to actually use the camera. Still, it’s an interesting concept.
