8-megapixel (effective) CCD sensor; f/2.4-to-f/3.5, 28mm-to-200mm (35mm-camera equivalent) 7X zoom lens; CompactFlash Type I and II media
Canon is going head-to-head with Sony in the 8-megapixel space. The top-of-the-line enthusiast cam from each company offers a fast, high-end lens. Sony's is a little quicker, but Canon's is a little cheaper. The Pro 1 is definitely a model to watch.
