Laforet's Nocturne 1D Mark IV video is officially back

Three cheers for Canon for doing what a five-year would not have done in the first place! After proxy-pulling-down Laforet's Nocturne viral 1D Mark IV video at the zenith of its popularity, the time has come for Canon to embrace the Nocturne video. See it via Laforet's blog who says expect an announcement "within 48 hours', but no it's not a new camera. It will be of film contest interest. The Nocturne video is available all over the place, including full 1080p courtesy of Smugmug's bandwidth.

And now let's go in Fake-Fake-Chuck mode and recall recalling a fake conversation:

+ Canon Executive #1: The Canon 7D is doing so well
+ Canon Executive #2: Yes, a lot of excitement out there
+ Canon Executive #3: It is smoking and toasting the Nikon D300s
+ Canon Darth Vader: So it is a good time to pull it from the shelves then?
+ In unison: Brilliant idea! Yank it!
