I know it's usually the 35mm equivalent lens angle... But 6-60 doesn't exactly make sense to me, so I must be missing something (yes I'm a n00b, but trying to learn.... And failing...)]]>Aug 26th 2008 1:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/canons-a1000-is-a2000-is-and-sx110-is-break-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/canons-a1000-is-a2000-is-and-sx110-is-break-free/Aug 26th 2008 2:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/canons-a1000-is-a2000-is-and-sx110-is-break-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/canons-a1000-is-a2000-is-and-sx110-is-break-free/
Because of the smaller sensor, it works out as something different 35mm equiv : ).]]>Aug 26th 2008 2:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/canons-a1000-is-a2000-is-and-sx110-is-break-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/canons-a1000-is-a2000-is-and-sx110-is-break-free/
Well I think I would take the 9x10 since the difference between a 9m-10m is not THAT much but going from 6x to 10x (stabilized of course)
gives at least a longer range.

Of course they better be talking optical here]]>Aug 26th 2008 1:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/canons-a1000-is-a2000-is-and-sx110-is-break-free/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/canons-a1000-is-a2000-is-and-sx110-is-break-free/Hell why not give a 1 GB SD card - I can pick one up at the grocery check out stand for just $10. With Canon's buying power they could actually include a good quality usable capacity SD card. Including a 32MB SD is an insult and just a waste of packaging.

But let's discuss that:
OK, say they make 500,000 of these cameras...
...and say including the 1GB card costs them $2 to include in your package as opposed to 40 cents (for arguments sake). Now see what they stand to lose in profit if giving you 1GB.

No film camera comes with film and SD is everywhere, so it's just a starter to get people shooting. Consider it a bonus. Plus, you know camera retailers love those margins on accessories. They will not promote a camera that includes the kitchen sink. Canon wants to keep the retailers happy and have their stuff promoted adequately, too.

From a business perspective, everything makes perfect sense and I can't say I blame them one bit. Disposable batteries on the other hand...
