Oh Yes, this will be mine! $499 for a digital video camera that with take 16:9 aspect ratio HD video and 7.1 mega pixel still shots. You just cant beat that with a stick. Unfortunately, I have to pre-order or it will disapear from the shelves faster than the Wii. Here are some specs from the Canon’s TX1 page:
With the PowerShot TX1, Canon takes a futuristic wish-list and makes it a reality. This is an ELPH-sized camera with a whopping 10x optical zoom that not only captures 7.1 megapixel images, but HD movies, too! The stylish vertical design in stainless steel houses plenty of premium advancements including Optical Image Stabilizer Technology, DIGIC III Image Processor, Face Detection Technology and Red-eye Correction. And because you’ll want to take this compact wonder everywhere, it’s equipped with a built-in lens cover and tough new scratch-resistant, anti-reflective coating on the LCD screen.
Putting up mad specifications:
- ISO 1600
- Face Detection Technology
- 1280×720 HD video at 30fps
- 1080i component video playback
Obviously, I will need some face time with this camera in person before actually pulling out the plastic. On first inspection this looks like exactly what I need for a price that I’m very pleased with. What I am hung up on, is the idea that I won’t be rocking this bad dog for SXSW.
