Sony in an overnight update put out four new Cyber-shot cameras, each with its own distinct edge. The TX20 embodies Sony’s typical very thin, internalized zoom design, but with an unusually rugged body. It can stay immersed at depths down to 16 feet, can take five-foot drops, and survive temperatures as low as 14F. Regardless […]
The Canon 5D Mark III that’s expected to officially launch on March 2 has shown up on the CanonRumors forums. There will be at least two events to unveil it, with one in France and the other in Singapore. The unconfirmed specs include a 22-megapixel sensor and a 61-point autofocus system. There is also reportedly […]
Lensbaby has added a new 80mm Edge 80 Optic to its Optic Swap System. It will attach to the company’s current SLR lenses including the Composer Pro, Composer, Muse, Scout, and Control Freak lens bodies, effectively turning them into tilt-shift lenses. It can take regular photos when set straight ahead, or be made to emit […]
Olympus ended rumors Tuesday by trotting out its highest-end Micro Four Thirds camera to date. The OM-D is consciously styled after the classic OM-4 film camera but, in place of the mirrors and optical viewfinder, has a 1.44-megapixel electronic viewfinder instead. It’s billed as one of the few mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras to have its […]
Olympus brought out two specialized point-and-shoot cameras ahead of the CP+ show. Leading off is the SZ-31MR, one of the longest-ranged compact ultrazoom cameras with a 24X (25-600mm equivalent) lens. The camera makes up for the blur likely at the far end of its zoom both by using a 16-megapixel, backside-illuminated CMOS sensor and two […]
Pentax has introduced yet another set of rugged point-and-shoot cameras, the Optio WG-2 and WG-2 GPS. Both feature backlit 16-megapixel sensors capable of shooting 1080p video at 30fps, while a “microscope” mode utilizes a ring of six LEDs to light shots as close as 1cm from the lens. The cameras integrate a 5X optical zoom […]
Canon finished out CP+ with announcements for six more new PowerShot A-series cameras to boost its entry level. At the top, the A4000 IS and A3400 IS each have firsts: the A4000 IS has a long 8X zoom, while the similar-resolution A3400 has a 5X zoom but is the first A-series with a touchscreen that […]
Canon brought Wi-Fi to more of its point-and-shoot cameras on Tuesday. Both the Elph 530 HS and Elph 320 HS can both send media directly to Image Gateway, an in-between album that in turn lets users share to Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. An iOS app, CameraWindow is coming in March that promises to keep compact […]
The most performance-minded camera in Canon’s lineup for the CP+ show Tuesday was unveiled as the SX260 HS. While the model name is slightly off from leaks, it confirms talk of a leap from 14X to 20X zoom in the body. The design comes outfitted with both a 12.1-megapixel CMOS sensor that helps in low […]
Canon’s kicked off it’s launches for the CP+ with a major rethink of its rugged camera. The PowerShot D20 is dramatically smaller and thinner than the D10 while keeping the durability. It can take water up to 33 feet deep, survive temperatures as cold as 14F or as warm as 104F, and survive drops of […]
