I was waiting to buy this as the camera to take on my next trip fulling expecting that CAnon would extend the zoom to include a 28mm wide angle. Instead they have opted to go for more telephoto.
Too bad. It is the wide angle that I am looking for rather than a few extra points on the telephoto.
Unfortunately I will have to look elseware for the wide angle.
