    not sure about if i want the movie mode, or that many pixels, but hey i;m getting one!

    Please, no HD Movie Mode. Must be a joke!

    HD movie mode along with some L Series Glass will be awesome, there’ll be a whole new generation of budget film makers shooting footage as good as the pros!
