I bought the SD110 (3.2MP) back in 2004 and decided it was time to upgrade this year as it was showing some age. The latest version of that same line is the SD1200. I have had it for a few weeks now and have a few observations. The SD1200 is much faster from the time you turn it on until it is ready to shoot as compared to the SD110. Next, the screen is far better than the one on the SD110. Very bright and readable even in sunlight.

Not only slave, but if able to command like the ST-E2, that will be even cooler :D

I’d love to see a small one that can slave…
that would make it a big step forward not only for g10/xsi folks but for people that need just some extra light with their 580′s etc…

It’s about time!
I tried a Nikon SB30 on the G10, that didn’t work.
Though it worked quite well on a Rebel, the 20D and a 40D.
Canon’s current flashes are too awkward, and heavy, on the G10 shoe.
Didn’t Metz make a slim dedicated flash for the Canon?

It would be nice to see a comparable flash to the SB-400. Right now any Canon flash seems a little ridiculous to put onto a G9/G10. Heck, even a 430EXII on a Rebel XS would look overbearing.

hmm i think is very very plausible as the sx1 and sx10 would need a small but powerful flash to fit the bill. The current 220EX just doesn’t do it
