This morning in London, Canon proudly showed off its Spring collection for 2007, comprising of no fewer than 43 new products aimed at both the consumer audience and professional user, from printers to projectors, cameras to camcorders.

The products announced include the quite spectacular EOS 1D Mk III digital SLR camera, aimed very much at the professional or serious amateur photographer, two new compact digital cameras in the IXUS range (the 75 and 70) and four new digital cameras in the PowerShot range (the A570 IS, A560, A550 and A460).

The new range also include 13 new photo kits (typically comprising of either the EOS 400D or EOS 30D digital SLR camera, lens, battery charger, battery pack and strap), eight new lens kits (from ultra wide zoom to telephoto to wide angle)
