I wonder how Canon could become convinced that the 20Da is a good idea, market-wise, if only the Japanese market can convince them....what market share of HIE does Japan have? I still believe this camera is more pointed at astrophotography than IR/artistic....maybe Japan has more of the first than of the latter, so that this camera still becomes a success....
Astrophotography is currently The Big Thing in Japan* -- just like macro photography was a couple of years ago. The market's quite big here, so I'm not surprised they're playing with a feeler model.
* Quite suprising given how badly light and environmentally polluted our night skies are.
