You mean the newly announced Powershot SX1 Pro with Full HD movie recording?
Maybe it will launched together with the new 5D mk 2 in mid or end Nov.

Just checked out the specs at http://www.letsgodigital.org/en/came...1971/show.html.

It doesn't support AA batteries anymore..

When I saw the specs I was initially quite excited.. until the proprietary battery portion. AA was a factor when I got the Canon S1IS, Fujiflim S8000FD and the battery grip for my 450D.

Me giving this a pass.

Hold the horses.. I'd checked out Dpreview too, and it shows AA.

Hmm.. different sites mentioned different power source. Let's wait a while more until the proper reviews are out.

Should be AA, that's the PowerShot tradition.

I realize, with a DCR-250 and some LED macro ring light, I have the possibility to shoot insect movies like those shown on LCD TV commercials..

My friend was advised stock for SX1IS will arrive only in mid-January when he contacted Canon SG directly by one off the staff member (name withheld). She also announced that they have not fixed the pricing yet, and said to check website for release.

In my opinion, good. Check this SX10 IS thread for some pictures:

http://www.clubsnap.com/forums/showthread.php?t=429146

My source also confirms SX1 IS will only come to Singapore early next year.

It's here. I called John 3:16 in morning, but stocks arrive only in pm, hence don't know the price yet.
