What is canon in DC? Some examples: DC animated universe, are those shows canon, non canon, or do they have their own canon? How do shows like smallville and arrow fit in the canon? Are they also their own canon? In the comics, are the current comics canon and everything before the last reboot aren't canon anymore?

The new DC comics are canon.

New 52 was basically the antidote to that, or so I hear. Apparently though New 52 Superman is above Post Crisis seeing as how he flew straight through a red sun and survived.

The adaptations are only canon to their own universes. The DCAU, for example has it's own canon, and so does Smallville, Arrow, etc.. Edited by Topographic Oceans, Apr 24 2014, 06:27 PM.

For instance his cartoons, Batman: the animated series, Superman, Batman Beyond and The Justice League are all in the same universe.
