My supplier informed me today that they are getting x XF300s. One of them has my name on it.

Too excited.

Grazie

Congratulation !!
Many features, very good handling, exelent footages with many different technics are possible !
And u can use older batterie from the XH-xx
For me it was the best choice to take the XF-300
I got the XH-A1 and the XH-A1s and one of the HF-20 before..

We want pictures! Congrats,

Thanks Robin. And thanks for your support.

Oh yes Chris, it's been a very very long time coming, since those XM2 days. My first HD cammie and it's got most of what I want including Canon glass and "reach" and then there's the 422.

And I'm still shooting with both my XM2s. In fact one if them has just returned from it's 2nd, yes 2nd, zoom controller assembly array replacement.

It's now 4:30am..... That's like 7 hours to wait still .....

If you thought I was a PITA b4....... just wait!

Grazie

Congrats on your new XF Graham! You'll definitely enjoy it.

I'm coming from an XL2, and I knew I had to make the jump to HD. I had several good choices for HD cams (including the EX1R), but I'm glad I waited for the XF cam :)

Best,

I got it!

Breathe out, and ....., r e l a x......

The EYe piece cover is part of the kit now, and there is now a "stuck on" Warning Icon not to point it directly at the Sun.

I'm in love......

Grazie
