Yes it will be interesting to see what comes in the next Canon camera and more importantly, when it will come out. Sony has now announced their HDV cam (A couple of days after the Canon XL2 release, Hmm) and I'm sure JVC is not going to sit idly by, and well Panasonic, although not part of the HDV consortium will surely come up with something, and if their revolutionary attitude is anything to go by, maybe something quite impressive.

has it not been said that XL2 is the last (absolute?) SD cam from Canon? if that is so then the next one is bound to be a HD(or HDV) guinea pig. XL2 is more like a revision of XL1s... so whoever is waiting for XL2s could be waiting until second coming! i ain't waiting, i'd rather be saved today!
