So the day we've all been waiting for has come. For over two years, we've been scouring the net in search of fuzzy, shadowy images that might lend some proof that Canon actually had the Mark III in the works.

Innovative microTies Promise To Tie Up Loose Ends
By Clint Milby | September 15, 2011
Your cat may like them. If you have a touch of OCD you might enjoy unraveling a nice ball of wires to calm your nerves.
