---Canon announcement teaser (translated from Swedish):

"During this fall, Canon will make one of its largest and most important launches in the company’s history and we hope you can attend. During a luncheon, you are invited to listen to CEO Jouko Tuouminen, Marketing president Monica Forsberg and trend analyst Magnus Lindkvist, talking about tomorrows trends and factors of success in the continually more digitalized everyday life."

---via DPReview forum:

"An Internet search of the Swedish names listed in the invitation will reveal that these folks actually work for Canon Business Solutions (CBS), which handles office products; not Canon's Consumer Imaging Group (CIG), which handles the cameras and camcorders. Consequently, the odds are pretty good that this Sept. 29th launch will be for a copier or some kind of a multi-purpose office solution, not for a "RED Killer."
 
Just to be clear - I wasn't trying to insinuate we should expect a camera announcement -
it's been pretty obvious from the start that it wasn't going to be anything camera related...
but it's fair to expect SOME kind of announcement, especially with that build up.

But how do we know that this was actually from Canon and not just a Photoshop prank?
 
Ah...
