Will the gs400 cost more then the dv953 because it has bigger ccds and a bigger lens and it is newer?

From some of posted prices seen on some Internet dealers taking orders I seem to recall $1499 US. Once the cam is released I'm sure the price will come down a hair, as the PV-DV953's price did shortly after it was released. Based on the posted price, it seems that the GS400 will cost slightly more than the PV-DV953.

I can see gs400 price is $1499 but if I wait longer to next year gs400 price be cheaper that is better. I can not wait this long because I can hardly wait now. Okay?

How soon do you want to buy one? The day it hits store shelves? You should hang loose and read some feedback first before making the leap of faith. Never know. And maybe they'll be even a better cam coming as a "Japan only," and maybe even a black one. Allan would be glad to help out if that's the case. Plus it may be cheaper buying from Japan via Allan. I'm sure that's what Pokey would do.
