More Canon Pro1 hands-on

PMA 2004 Live: We've just returned from our first press event of PMA, the Canon UK Press Briefing. Here we heard more about the more than ten new digital photography products introduced by Canon at PMA. It was also our second opportunity to get our hands on some of the new digital cameras, of most interest to our readers will be the eight megapixel PowerShot Pro1. What we've seen so far has impressed us, the camera feels smaller and better ergonomically than the G5, my only complaint would be that the USM zoom doesn't feel as immediate or responsive as the Sony DSC-F828's mechanically linked zoom mechanism.
