Canon launches special-edition Jackie Chan 550D in China

We so want one of these...

Canon launches special-edition Jackie Chan 550D in China

27 April 2010 15:17 GMT / By Rik Henderson

We're already in agreement that the Canon 550D is one hell of an affordable DSLR. And, there's absolutely no doubt that Jackie Chan is anything other than a bone fide genius. So, what happens when you put them both together? Cue grown men fainting with excitement...

Or, at least, that's the way it was in Pocket-lint towers when we heard of this bizarre marriage, the Jackie Chan-branded 550D being launched in China. Unfortunately, there's only 2,010 of them being made (for 2010, get it?), they cost 10,000 Yuan (about £950) and they'll never be released anywhere else in the world, but come on? We want one so much that we'd trade, maybe not a leg, but at least a couple of toes.

We can even feel a campaign coming on...

At the very least Canon, can we have a Jason Statham Ixus 130? We'd even settle for a Danny Dyer PowerShot S90? No? Oh.
