Hybrid Camera
I received an email today that stated Canon has a new Hybrid camera (video & stills) coming in September.

It wasn't stated whether or not it was a new DSLR or a new form factor camera.

It was supposed to be used around the globe shooting promotional video, but due to budget constraints it will not leave Japan.

I am trying to get a bit more info as to what is being classified a “hybrid” camera.

Sony and Panasonic have both shown us new types of camcorders, maybe this is in the same area.

A camera that took wicked awesome photos on an iPad out the window of the Reuters trailer at the Kennedy Space Center and all from the comfort of the Hampton Inn in Titusville, Florida.

    Um. . . that’s what I said. “Effectively.”

  2. Ok, if it is old news, then anyone want to tell me what the new one will have in it, so I can decide if I want to hunt for the X1 or wait the summer out with my old slow camera cause the new one will be worth the wait and not insanely expensive?
