What is the correct syntax for this UPDATE?

CREATE TABLE category ( name text, image text, url text, parent oid[]
);
update category set parent = '{0,0}' where name='slr';
So far so good...
update category set parent[0] = (SELECT oid from mfr where
name='canon');
ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near "select"
