Caleb, The Canon SX200 IS digicam looks to be the goods, seems to be on par with the Hv30 that it's compared with. http://eugenia.gnomefiles.org/2009/06/14/benchmark-the-best-hd-720p-digi cam-around/ Cheers Rambo http://rambos-locker.blogspot.com -----Original Message----- From: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com [mailto:videoblogg...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Caleb Clark Sent: Tuesday, 16 June 2009 7:29 AM To: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com Subject: [videoblogging] Canon SX1???
Anyone used one of these Canon SX1?s they have the EOS CMOS sensor, 1080 video, stereo mics, 20x zoom. No mic port though like the 5D SLR, but If I was in the field I might want one of these and solar powered AA battery charger and I'm good to go for months for stills and video??? http://www.steves- <http://www.steves-digicams.com/2009_reviews/canon_sx1_conclusion.html> digicams.com/2009_reviews/canon_sx1_conclusion.html Also, their predecessor, the SX10IS with "only" 640 video is price dropping like a stone to about $350: http://www.amazon. <http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001G5ZTZO/ref=s9_simz_gw_s0_p114_i2?p f_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=0CNZKEXGAXKHN9JH4VZP&pf_rd _t=101&pf_rd_p=470938631&pf_rd_i=507846> com/gp/product/B001G5ZTZO/ref=s9_simz_gw_s0_p114_i2?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DE R&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=0CNZKEXGAXKHN9JH4VZP&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=4709 38631&pf_rd_i=507846 -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ Caleb Clark ~ Wk: http://gradcenter. <http://gradcenter.marlboro.edu/academics/mat/faculty> marlboro.edu/academics/mat/faculty ~ Hm: http://www.plocktau <http://www.plocktau.com> .com ~ "The problem with communication is the assumption it has been accomplished." - G.
