CANON PowerShot S1 IS - Replacement coming soon, or rumour?

Mar 16, 2005 11:25PM PST

Someone at BestBuy told me they're replacing the 3.2 mp with more mp's, due out in about a month. True?

It looks like you BestBuy sales person is correct.

I am seeing several reports of camera stores that have run out of the current S1 cameras and can not get an more.

The S1 IS was always thought to be to-little, to-late, in the megapixel department.

4 meg seems to be a good possibility, but is that enough?

Konica Minolta has already introduced the 5 meg Z5.

Surely Canon is not going to make the same mistake twice!

I would like to know too. I was told at Circuit City that it was discontinued. Does anyone know the answer?

I checked a few Canon forums and there is no news.

Not even any good rumors.

Many stores have run out of the S1 IS and can not get more.

Canon is not saying anything.
