not a canon, but the •100 pixel resolution must be something to behold. Of course the extended warrenty is not available in california, sigh, guess I'll have to pass :lol:

Hey.. tape 48 of them to a sheet of plywood in a 6 camera by 8 camera rectangle.. and trigger the shutters together... and for $1,392.00 (minus the cost of the plywood) you'll have a very portable (some assembly required) half megapixel camera! :roll:


Or.. just hook it to the back of my 500mm prime... with the 4000X "Crop factor" that would equal a 2,000,000mm super telephoto!

CDS you may have just solved Nasa &/or some astronomers budget problems! :idea: Why build bigger telescopes, just use smaller sensors :?
