Canon XL-H2- when?

Sounds interesting. But are the rumors from a reliable source, or mere speculation?

The one and only "reliable source" is the manufacturer itself. So yes, this is all just mere speculation and it's
important to understand that's all it ever can be until an official press release is issued -- whenever that is.

I have to agree with Chris. After a bit of search, I found the same rumor on a post in Gizmondo dated beginning of March. IMO the only certain feature of the new camcorder will be the large sensor.

And hopefully there will also be PAL frames rates so we can all have the whole spectrum

24, 25, 30, 50 and 60p... and imagine if you could ramp up frame rates! Then we would be talking.
And how magic would it be if they use the same batteries etc as the H1, A1 and G1 so we don't need to double up.

56 mbps... sounds good too... if someone is making up why pick 56???? God I love rumours ; )

Sorry just dreaming
