Quick test of the new camera

This is the Canon PowerShot SD940IS. It is shot in kind of low light and uploaded without editing straight off the camera to YouTube.

On a happy note, the videos appear to work straight off the camera in my editor. I was worried that Canon would use some oddball format, but it is straight up .mov or MPEG format. The video is pretty good for such a tiny lens. The best part is the wide angle on the lens. The card says I have 90 minutes of video. The batteries are $8 a pop on Amazon. I have a place in my backpack to carry this stack of credit cards. I get to take out my old camera which means a net loss of about half a kilo for my pack. Sweet.
