Have come back to Canon.

I have a Canon Digital Rebel (T1i) and a G9. But my superzoom brand changes from time to time. I dabbled with m4/3rds for a short time, got rid of it, then retried it, and ditched it yet again. Felt I didn't need two interchangable lens camera systems. Then more recently, I purchased a Sony superzoom HX100V. Not a bad camera at all. That is until the SX40 just appeared on the scene and was finally available at my local camera gear store. I think I really wanted the SX40 instead of the Sony, but just was not here when I got the urge to purchase another superzoom. So, when I saw the Canon, I got excited again, quickly found a buyer for my Sony, and as of 1 hour ago, I'm the proud owner of the SX40HS. There's something comforting, at least to me, about having all three cameras within the same family. Maybe it's having the same general menu? I'm content(for now).
Just thought I'd share this with you.

By the way, do you folks know if the Canon 380EX shoe mounted flash have any special auto connections to the SX40?
