Samsung NX100 preview

On September 24, 2010, In Gadgets, News, by Lobo

It’s arguable, but we’d say that Samsung’s NX100 is the news coming out of Photokina 2010. You could say that Panasonic’s Lumix DMC-GH2 (and its 3D interchangeable lens), Fujifilm’s not-yet-released FinePix X100 or Sigma’s Foveon-packin’ SD1 were of equal importance, but it’s pretty clear who stands to lose (or gain) the most from their ginormous push in Cologne. You wouldn’t know that Samsung even brought another product to the show if you casually glanced at its booth, and we were able to take the outfit’s newest starlet out for a spin in order to gain a few impressions

Ricoh’s rugged G700SE point-and-shoot does Bluetooth, WiFi, GPS and more (eyes-on)

On September 23, 2010, In Gadgets, News, by Lobo

And you thought Ricoh’s G700 was fully featured. Premiering at Photokina this week, the souped-up G700SE is a modified version of the G700 that appeared last month, with this guy able to accept add-on modules that can boost functionality by a good bit. The prototype unit here in Germany was showcased alongside of the GP-1 GPS dongle and a BR-1 bar code scanning module, with the latter meant more for governments and enterprises

Sanyo debuts E1500TP point-and-shoot alongside Xacti CG21, PD1 and GH3 camcorders

On September 22, 2010, In Gadgets, by Lobo

If there’s a Photokina around, you can bet your bottom dollar that Sanyo will be there. Boasting a booth chock full of camcorders and pocketable cameras, we waded through to find three new Xacti camcorders (VPC-CG21, VPC-PD1 and VPC-GH3) on display alongside a simplistic new shooter, the VPC-E1500TP. Starting with the latter, this one brings just the basics in a fairly vanilla enclosure: a 14 megapixel CMOS sensor, 720p video, a 4x optical zoom, 3-inch rear touchpanel, 32MB of internal storage space, an SD / SDHC expansion slot, ISO range from 100 to 3200 and USB connectivity.

To say the Micro Four Thirds / mirrorless battle is heating up would be understating things greatly.

Hasselblad intros Ferrari-branded H4D camera, refuses to talk pricing (hands-on)

On September 22, 2010, In Gadgets, News, by Lobo

The big news out of Hasselblad this morning was the new entry(ish)-level H4D-31 at just under €10,000, with the CFV-50 adding yet another option in the higher-than-high-end category. But what really caught our eye was the flashy red version that popped up just as the press conference was concluding. We were told that Hasselblad had teamed with Ferrari in order to create a limited run of Ferrari-branded H4D medium format cameras, and the model on-hand had just received approval from Ferrari’s paint squad yesterday

Sony ‘Advanced Model’ (Alpha A77?) DSLR emerges at Photokina, E-mount firmware coming soon

On September 21, 2010, In Gadgets, by Lobo

We’ve heard Sony use the term “Advanced Model” when dealing with concepts before, and it seems that it’s using said code once more to disguise what may end up being the A77. Rumors have been flaring over the past few weeks, noting that this particular Alpha DSLR would be showcased at Photokina before being officially unveiled at CES 2011.

Leica introduces M9 ‘Titanium,’ limited to just 500 lucious pieces

On September 20, 2010, In Gadgets, by Lobo

Can’t afford anything that’s been introduced at Photokina so far? Unfortunately for you, there’s hardly a chance that Leica’s newest limited edition product will be the one that slips under the budget. At the outfit’s exclusive press preview this evening in Cologne, a gallery of executives from Leica and Volkswagen (who chipped in on the design) formally unveiled the M9 ‘Titanium.’ For all intents and purposes, this is just a souped-up M9, but there’s plenty to love for those who fancy high-fashion.
