11 months ago
A 7.5 minute tour around Canon's PowerShot SX1 IS in High Definition by Gordon Laing, Editor of cameralabs.com. This video demonstrates the key differences between the SX1 IS and the SX10 IS, and features several examples of its 1080p HD movie mode.
This video is part of a full review of the SX1 IS which includes detailed information on its features and operation, along with results which compare it against the SX10 IS and the 450D / XSi DSLR. See our full review at:

Note: this video was filmed and edited in the HDV format using Adobe Premiere CS4, with the SX1 IS movies imported and placed directly on the timeline. The final file was exported as a 720p 29.97fps WMV file for uploading to Vimeo.

I'd be interested in buying an SX1 but in terms of video quality how does the Canon compare to a SONY HDR TG3?
Too bad the SX1 IS's compession is rather huge, as the bitrate is only about 5Mb/sec, I understand. Also, I noticed that when you pan with it or if there is fast action, the CMOS's rolling shutter cannot really keep up.
I am now looking at CASIO and FUJI FINEPIX cameras with CCD sensors as alternatives to the Canon, Nikon, and Panasonic CMOS + rolling shutter cameras. Due to the rolling shutter artifacts of jello, wobble, skew, bent verticals, flash banding, etc, I just don't think I can live with the CMOS + rolling shutter technology. But it is all right for most still pictures.
