Currently being teased on its own page is the new Sigma SD15 dSLR, a delightful looking piece of kit that has yet to see the light of day, despite being announced way back in 2006.
Pentax is launching a limited-edition silver version of its Pentax K-7 digital SLR camera, serving up a delicious old school look sure to get traditionalists twitching towards their wallets.
The Pentax K-7 Limited Silver updates the existing K-7 body with a new silver and black finish backed by a reinforced “highly shock and scratch resistant” LCD glass cover, said to be tougher than what you’ll get on the standard K7.
Canon has taken the wraps off its latest consumer digital SLR, the EOS 550D ( Rebel T2i) which packs a hefty 18MP sensor and full HD movie recording, tucked up in Canon’s familiar camera styling.
Sporting a newly developed 18MP APS-C CMOS sensor, backed by Canon’s advanced DIGIC 4 image processor plus enhanced in-camera noise reduction for low light shooting, Canon are hoping that this camera will make a splash in the highly competitive consumer dSLR market.
With another tug on their heavily-overworked new product curtain, Sony have introduced another member to their expansive Alpha DSLR range, the A450.
With the stripped-down, lower-cost A450 jostling for attention in the lively low-cost dSLR market, Sony seem to be hedging their bets, with the camera being the sixth Alpha model in the sub-$1,000, range, which sure seems like overkill to us.
We’ve been rattling off photos on our Nikon D300 for the past year now and it’s a lovely camera – but does the new D300S add up to a worthwhile upgrade?
We guess the hardest problem the team at Nikon faced was how they could improve on what was already a fabulous camera with very few shortcomings.
If you’re the proud owner of a Sony A230, A330, A380 dSLR, then we suggest you hotfoot it over to Sony’s website sand gorge yourself on a lovely free firmware update.
“But what does it do?” you may ask? Well, pull up a chair and we’ll tell you.
Canon have announced their new EOS-1D Mark IV professional dSLR camera boasting a spec sheet to make pro snappers swoon.
Billed as a “a high-speed multimedia performance monster,” the Canon packs a 16-megapixel CMOS sensor, Dual DIGIC 4 Imaging Processors and 14-bit A/D data conversion, full HD recording, packed in a rugged body so tough you could probably use it to bash nails in.
Olympus created a bit of a splash with the launch of their beautifully retro-styled E-P1 Micro Four Thirds camera, but as soon as we cast eyes on the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1, we were filled with rampant wads o’want.
Looking like a grown up version of the Lumix LX3 – still our favourite digital compact – the GF1 offers dSLR-like performance in a compact package (we would say ‘pocket-sized’, but if you like to strut around in a pair 0f Rod Stewart’s finest spandex trews, it’ll be a bit of a squeeze).
Nikon has unveiled the upgrade to their high-end professional D3 dSLR, the envy-inducing D3S, packing a beast of a CMOS sensor, measuring up at a massive a 36 x 23.9 mm and delivering 12.1 of some of the finest megapixels you’ll ever see.
Looking tough enough to take Rocky the full ten rounds, the new D3S adds 720p HD video recording and is capable of snapping an astonishing 48 RAW frames in one burst.
Pentax is looking to grab itself a slice of the lucrative low-end dSLR market with the launch of its new budget-priced K-x camera.
Based on the K2000 body, the K-x notches up a respectable feature count, with its 12.4 megapixel CMOS image sensor packing sensor-shift Shake Reduction for stabilised image and video capture and a 11 point wide angle SAFOX VIII autofocus system for snappy focusing and tracking of moving subjects.
