I doubt you'd get away with it in the UK, at 64cm it's too tall by 9cm. They're getting very strict these days and would probably make you check it.

I'm in the UK and bought my EX1 in the US so I have no warranty cover.

I'll be on a boat and I'd prefer to have it in the cabin.

Wow, I was just about to buy it too.

Does anyone know if that is definitely correct? That is, an EX1 will not work with Vegas Movie Studio 9 Platinum Pro.

Vegas Movie Studio 9

I see that Sony have announced Vegas Movie Studio 9.

I don't know much about video editing software but I was wondering how this compares to Vegas Pro and if it would be a viable alternative.
