I've just spoke with Optex, they will have the XLH1 PAL in stock on the 21st of December. :-)

That's a Merry Christmas from Canon to us Limey filmmakers.

I wonder if it will fit in my stocking?

Incidentally, did Optex quote you a price? Does anyone know the RRP of the camera for the UK?

Martin Costa · December 8th, 2005, 11:26 AM

Simon, Optex were quoting 5000 + Vat for pre-order and they are willing to honour this price for the people who have pre-ordered. As the RRP is now 5250+Vat.

That's great. Thanks for the info, Martin.
