The US pricing hasn’t been confirmed yet, but over in Australia they’ll be able to pick one up for AU$499 (US$443) later this month.
HD video recording is listed as 1280 x 720 res, a welcome upgrade from the CX2’s 640 x 480, as is the 10.7x 28-300mm optical wide-angle zoom lens. Really, anyone who bought a CX2 six months earlier must be feeling preeeeetty annoyed right about now. [DP Review]
