Canon VIXIA HF M32 camcorder

Canon folks might have wanted to steal Sony’s thunder, but the announcement of their VIXIA HF M32 camcorder isn’t going to do the trick despite boasting double its predecessor’s internal memory, hitting 64GB this time which can be further augmented by taking advantage of its SDXC memory card slot. The inclusion of Canon’s Relay Recording feature enables one to transit from one storage cell to another without having to interrupt one’s video, coming alongside a HD CMOS sensor that can shoot 3-megapixel stills, feature a 15x optical zoom lens with both optical and powered image stabilization, a 2.7″ touchscreen LCD display with Touch and Track functionality, as well as a similar DIGIC DV III processor which has been around since last year. Would you fork out $1,000 for this as it rolls out in September?
