The fact you said that the Canon manager of pro video products will be there to show the NEW Canon products they will introduce at NAB is VERY EXCITING. At least this confirms they will introduce something new in the pro video arena ...

Here's to the new XL-H2 :)

or at least a new viewfinder for the current H1 ...

Good to see the cat is out of the bag and I don't have to keep my mouth shut. Canon will be here showing the H1s and the H1a cameras so if you miss NAB and you're in LA, see ya on the 30th.

Just a reminder to L.A. area folks to put this event on your calenders... I've heard that Robert Sander's film is really amazing with some impressive CGI and that it puts Predator to shame... sure wish I could be there to see it.

I wouldn't go that far, Chris! LOL!

Just a reminder, if you are coming on Weds nite, be sure to sign up on the web site or call in. We need to get a good count so we can get enough food & drink for all you hungry & thirsty people out there.

Thanks,
