And that was a reason why I didn't go Sony (and b/c there was no top info screen. I don't know how I would live without it!).

It's $180 CDN at The Camera Store in Calgary. Seems like a more reasonable price than the $280 that most other places charge for it in Canada.

ETA: I think that would work out to about $155 or $160 USD aprox.
