As Photokina looms large, D90 rumors have been in abundance — with a varying range of legitimacy. This here Circuit City inventory screenshot, however, has a ring of truth to it, and even unveils a pricetag in the process: $1299.99. Not bad for rumored specs that include a 12 megapixel Live View sensor, video recording, [...]
To be completely honest, we’re not so sure there’s any real difference between any of Aiptek’s crapcorders. They all seem to boast some form of HD capturing abilities, utterly worthless digital zooms and expansion slots for your SDHC card of choice. Additionally, they all produce output that’s marginally better than mediocre and cost next-to-nothing compared [...]
Back in May, we heard that MTI Micro was working with “an elusive Japanese developer or digicams” to get its Mobion fuel cell tech into actual products. Given this Canon Fuel Cell DSLR patent, it looks like we can no-so elusively safely say where the camera is being developed. The patent itself is straight up [...]
Far from being the first Blu-ray hybrid camcorder from Hitachi, the DZ-BD10HA ups the ante even further by tossing in a third format. Yep, this Full HD (1,920 x 1,080) camcorder can record to BD, SDHC or the 30GB hard drive. Additionally, you’ll find a 7-megapixel CMOS sensor, push-of-a-button dubbing from HDD / SDHC to [...]
Don’t look now, but your point-and-shoot is about to get a whole lot smarter if it’s rockin’ a DSC-T700 or DSC-T77 label. Starting with the latter (which is Sony’s thinnest model at less than 5/8 of an inch), you’ll find a 10-megapixel sensor, ISO up to 3,200, eleven scene modes, in-camera image management, face detection [...]
What’s up with Japan getting all the cool toys first? Yeah, we can claim little victories like Pleo and basketball (shared with Canada, some say), but the two 1.5 of those don’t even come close to measuring up to Her Cuteness. Differences aside, we’re thrilled to see that Liquid Image’s underwater digital camera mask is [...]
Well, well. What have we here? A few new Nikon’s in the run-up to Photokina, based on looks alone. Up first is the previously rumored Coolpix P6000 (pictured front, £429; $835 $500), a high-end point-and-shoot with a patently absurd 13.5-megapixel sensor, a 4x optical zoom, 2.7-inch touchscreen monitor, built-in GPS for geotagging pics, full manual [...]
Man, all these old camera rumors are just seeping out of the woodwork ahead of Photokina next month — now it’s the Nikon D90 getting the zombie rumor treatment. At least we’re getting specs this time around, and they’re not bad at all: 12 megapixels, Live View, video mode (necessitating a built-in mic), HDMI out, [...]
Seriously, we’ve been hearing about the EOS 7D for well over a year now, with the chatter predictably heating up before every major trade show — and with just over a month before Photokina, it’s happening all over again. Hopefully Canon actually has this semi-legendary $1,899 full-frame DSLR to show us this time — the [...]
Ready for this? Olympus and Panasonic just announced a new mirrorless format and lens mount based on the venerable Four Thirds standard. Dubbed Micro Four Thirds System, the enhanced standard uses the same 18 x 13.5-mm sensor but promises 50% slimmer cameras due to the removal of the mirror box. We’re also looking at smaller [...]
