		<description><![CDATA[We've seen a lot of prototype, anorexic OLED TVs and even an 11in production model with a heart stopping price tag but the fact is that OLED TVs are still a way off when it comes to them becoming mainstream. Kodak, however, has found a better jumping off point for the technology with the first OLED wireless picture frame. The 7.6in OLED Wireless Frame is slinky indeed, sporting a very thin widescreen panel [5.3mm] with 800 x 600 pixel resolution and a whopping contrast ratio of 30,000:1. A 180 degree viewing angle means photos can be viewed from all sides, while video playback is thrown up with vivid colours and smooth motion - a characteristic of most OLEDs. There's even in-built speakers to support both videos and any MP3s you stick on it. The frame comes with 2GB of memory, which is good for around 10,000 images and transferring new content is a snap thanks to the in-built Wi-Fi. The frame needs no backlighting and there's an in-built ambient light sensor for adjusting display brightness based on the surrounding light. It's almost reassuring though that while OLED TVs and this photo frame differ a lot in size they have a lot in common when it comes to pricing. The frame will sell for around £520 before Christmas.-Martin Lynch [Kodak] photo OLED gadget<img width='1' height='1' src='http://feeds.uk.gizmodo.com/c/552/f/9594/s/1e83200/mf.gif'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/17/kodak_first_with_consumer_oled.html&#38;link=Kodak First With Consumer OLED Photo Frame" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/17/kodak_first_with_consumer_oled.html&#38;link=Kodak First With Consumer OLED Photo Frame" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[SD Card storage is very handy indeed but now the technology is about to get a whole lot more useful with the announcement of Embedded SD. The new Embedded SD standard from the SD Card Association (SDA) will put that technology inside all of our gadgets, up to 32GB. So, instead of digital cameras and camcorders with a measly few megabytes of storage onboard you'll be able to get one with 32GB on the inside as well SD Card slots to add up to another 32GB on high capacity cards. The move is widely applauded, the standard will be published in November, although we have no date on just when Embedded SD is going to appear inside our next essential purchases. "The miniSD and microSD form factors are the leading interfaces for removable storage cards for mobile handsets, currently dominating the market, and are expected to constitute 90 percent of all card slots in mobile handsets in 2010, according to our analysis," said Nam Hyung Kim, director and chief analyst for iSuppli Corp. "The new Embedded SD standard is built on that leading SD standard and takes aim at mobile handset storage needs like low power consumption, boot functionality, small form factor and integrated flash management." Great news indeed, although it will be even better if manufacturers can apply it to their future products fast, so hurry the hell up!-Martin Lynch [SDA] storage gadget<img width='1' height='1' src='http://feeds.uk.gizmodo.com/c/552/f/9594/s/1e19866/mf.gif'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/14/gadgets_to_get_embedded_sd_sto.html&#38;link=Gadgets To Get 'Embedded SD' Storage: Yippee!" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/14/gadgets_to_get_embedded_sd_sto.html&#38;link=Gadgets To Get 'Embedded SD' Storage: Yippee!" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Fancy yourself as the next David Bailey or Franco Fontana? Then you'll probably be interested in the new Daddy of CompactFlash cards for your digital snapper: the 32GB SanDisk Extreme III CompactFlash (CF) card. I thought I was doing OK with my little 2GB cards but I'm feeling all inadequate now. The card doubles the capacity of CF cards and boosts speed by up to 50%. It's being targeted at professional digital videographers and photographers with a 30MB/s read and write speed - up from 20MB/s. Combined with the storage bump the cards are well suited to those that like to shoot fast and in RAW format. That said, smaller, cheaper and slightly slower cards are really all that most consumers and enthusiasts would need. After all, the 32GB Extreme III costs around £170, which is extreme by anyone's standards.-Martin Lynch [SanDisk] camera storage<img width='1' height='1' src='http://feeds.uk.gizmodo.com/c/552/f/9594/s/1ded30c/mf.gif'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/12/sandisk_extreme_iii_for_extrem.html&#38;link=SanDisk Extreme III For Extreme Photographers" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/12/sandisk_extreme_iii_for_extrem.html&#38;link=SanDisk Extreme III For Extreme Photographers" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This baby has been cropping up at shows and on enthusiast Web sites all summer but now Sony has finally announced the A900, the company's first full-frame digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) camera. It's also the industry's first with a 24.6 effective megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor and is capable of shooting 5fps at full resolution. This well appointed snapper edges into the professional arena but will no doubt excite well-heeled amateur enthusiasts too. It performs on-chip analogue/digital (A/D) signal conversion and two-stage noise reduction while the glass optical pentaprism viewfinder is very bright and offers a field of view covering 100% of the full-frame sensor's imaging area. There's a 9-point Auto Focus system to ensure fewer missed shots, supported by 10 focus assist points. The A900 is also the first full-frame camera to sport SteadyShot INSIDE, which delivers up to 4 steps of anti-shake correction so that all your ugly relatives will always look their best. The Intelligent Preview feature is pretty cool as it lets you take a 'preview shot' stored in temporary memory but displayed on the LCD display which you can apply various effects to before taking the final snap, which will replace the tweaked temporary shot. There's a 3in LCD display and a HDMI slot for viewing your photos on HDTVs. It supports both CompactFlash and MemoryStick cards - a good thing when you consider that a single, full 24MP uncompressed shot can be over 20Mb. It's due out next month and has a US price of around £1,700, but expect that to creep up magically as it crosses the Atlantic.-Martin Lynch photo camera photography<img width='1' height='1' src='http://feeds.uk.gizmodo.com/c/552/f/9594/s/1da6cae/mf.gif'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/10/sonys_dslr_a900_gets_official.html&#38;link=Sony's DSLR A900 Gets Official" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/10/sonys_dslr_a900_gets_official.html&#38;link=Sony's DSLR A900 Gets Official" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The trend for most camera phones these days is to increase the mega-pixel count of the snapper inside but, if that's just too sensible for you, you can opt for the Xun Chi 138, the world's smallest camera phone [that's the claim anyhow] where quality has been largely kicked out the window in favour of size. It's not much longer than an AA battery and inside you have a 1.3MP camera, a touch screen with hand writing recognition, MP3 player and GPRS features. Weighing in at just 55g, it measures only 2.6in in length and will, no doubt, be even harder to find than your existing phone. It can also take video at 15fps, but since the resolution is just 176 x 144 pixels, you may not want to. It's a dual-band GSM phone that will work in the UK - if you could get one from here - and if you do, let us know how long it takes to send a text with your big, chunky Westerner fingers. Personally, I'm already slow enough with a regular mobile. -Martin Lynch [Slippery Brick] phone camera mobile<img width='1' height='1' src='http://feeds.uk.gizmodo.com/c/552/f/9594/s/1d8094e/mf.gif'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/09/worlds_smallest_camera_phone_s.html&#38;link=World's Smallest Camera Phone: Silly But Small" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/09/worlds_smallest_camera_phone_s.html&#38;link=World's Smallest Camera Phone: Silly But Small" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div>]]></description>

Personally, I'm already slow enough with a regular mobile. -Martin Lynch [Slippery Brick] phone camera mobile<img width='1' height='1' src='http://feeds.uk.gizmodo.com/c/552/f/9594/s/1d8094e/mf.gif'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/09/worlds_smallest_camera_phone_s.html&amp;link=World's Smallest Camera Phone: Silly But Small"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/09/09/worlds_smallest_camera_phone_s.html&amp;link=World's Smallest Camera Phone: Silly But Small"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div>]]></content:encoded>

		<description><![CDATA[There's no shortage of of remote controlled helicopters out there but how about something completely different. This is the Draganflyer X6 helicopter, which uses six main horizontal rotor blades that allow it to hover efficiently and manoeuvre rapidly using differential thrust. All that lift means that it can be equipped with HD camcorders, night vision, still or thermal imaging cameras and because it has in-built GPS, it can be set to hover over a particular location while you go make a cuppa. Here's what the makers say:" Aimed at industrial and commercial use, it provides reconnaissance and inspection information using on-board wireless video and still cameras. The Draganflyer X6 helicopter is able to fly autonomously or can be flown manually by remote control. The Draganflyer X6 helicopter achieves its stability by using an on-board processor running more than ten thousand lines of code and receiving data from eleven on-board sensors (three gyros, three accelerometers, three magnetometers, one barometric pressure sensor, and one GPS receiver). It can be piloted by users with minimal or zero training. The Draganflyer X6 helicopter can be put into GPS hold mode where it will maintain its position without any user input. This means that after activating GPS hold, the pilot can set the handheld controller on the ground while the Draganflyer X6 helicopter flies itself. This mode will allow the user to focus on other tasks such as aerial photography from the Draganflyer X6 helicopter. The Draganflyer X6 helicopter uses interchangeable cameras, covering different areas of use. A high definition video camera provides 1080p resolution. For dawn and dusk use, there is a low light (0.0001lux) video camera. For night use or search and rescue, the thermal FLIR (Forward Looking Infra-Red) camera provides heat vision. High-resolution photographs can be captured with the 10.1 mega-pixel digital still camera. When using any of the camera modules." The controller is a custom-designed handheld with a 2.8in colour OLED touchscreen. The control also receives streaming video from the X6 and passes this to the video goggles, giving you an onboard view of what's happening. There's no price but I want one.

		<description><![CDATA[Hot on the heels of the new Canon EOS 50D comes the Nikon D90, which manages to cannibalise features from its professional line-up as well as claim the honour of being the first digital SLR with HD video recording capabilities. It's a 12.1MP camera that can shoot continuously at up 4.5 frames-per-second. The camera powers up very fast in just 0.15 seconds and shooting lag is just 65ms. The new HD video party trick, called D-Movie Mode, allows snappers to capture 720p video in Motion JPEG format at 24fps with sound. The camera has low noise ISO sensitivity from 200 to 3200 and there's a 3in 920,000-dot LCD display with 170-degree viewing angle. Other key features include built-in image sensor cleaning, 11-point AF system with face priority and fast auto-focus, one-button Live View, 5 scene modes, in-camera image editing and GPS geo-tagging. It's not as highly specified as the Canon EOS 50D but then it is cheaper, with a US price tag of around £500. There's also a new lens, the AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR, and the kit price is around £650. Obviously, those prices will inflate the closer it gets to the UK but, it also means that the existing D80 will be getting a serious price cut bargain hunters.-Martin Lynch [Nikon] photo camera photography<img width='1' height='1' src='http://feeds.uk.gizmodo.com/c/552/f/9594/s/1c06f78/mf.gif'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/08/27/nikon_d90_the_first_digital_sl.html&#38;link=Nikon D90: The First Digital SLR Camera With HD Video" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/08/27/nikon_d90_the_first_digital_sl.html&#38;link=Nikon D90: The First Digital SLR Camera With HD Video" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you see a miniaturised gadget cunningly disguised as an everyday object then it's likely there will be some reference to James Bond in the first hundred words. Oops, we just went and did it again. But this Spy Micro Camera Watch is a little different to most similar products in that the camera lens is particularly well disguised on the watch face itself.If you haven't noticed it in the picture above, it's tucked neatly into the figure '2', so we reckon it'd be practically impossible for both innocent bystanders and rich megalomaniacal tyrants to work out what you're up to. The camera records in AVI format to the generous 2GB of internal storage in 352x288 resolutions, which should just be enough to make out the details on blueprints to secret underground lairs. You transfer this off via mini-USB, which also charges the device, though we're not sure exactly how long it'd last. Unfortunately the watch doesn't appear to be particularly sturdy since there's no apparent waterproof or shockproof protection, though since Bond rarely even gets a crease in his dinner jacket we wouldn't imagine this would be too much of a problem.

		<description><![CDATA[At the weekend, we caught glimpse of the new Canon EOS 50D from leaked information on Canon's Chinese site but today we have the real deal, complete with official photo of the new snapper for 'advanced amateur photographers'. The camera sits in above the current 40D and below the semi-professional 5D and is Canon's first to use the Digic 4 processor. Digic 4 allows for faster snapping and carries out peripheral illumination correction, which automatically evens brightness across the image field, to make photos of a blue sky, for instance, evenly toned. Previously, this effect effect had to be recreated with photo software on a PC. The 50D features a 15.1MP sensor and the EOS 40D's 14-bit Analog-to-Digital conversion process for smooth tones. There is enhanced noise reduction, greater ISO sensitivity up to ISO 12800, and it is capable of shooting 6.3 frames per second (fps). It also has a 3in Clear View LCD screen with a 920,000 dot/VGA resolution - 4 times that on the EOS 40D. There is also a handy HDMI slot for hooking the camera up to a HDTV. The Self-Cleaning Sensor Unit is similar to that in the 40D but this time it includes a fluorine coating on the low-pass filter for better dust resistance. In addition to the body, Canon has also launched a 'solid all-around lens' with the EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS zoom lens. Due in October, the 50D body is priced - US for the moment - at around £700 with the new lens coming in at £350. A kit version with Canon's EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM zoom lens will cost around £800. Full US press release below.-Martin Lynch CANON U.S.A. STIMULATES THE CREATIVITY OF EXPERIENCED PHOTOGRAPHERS WITH THE INTRODUCTION OF THE NEW EOS 50D DIGITAL SLR CAMERA Canon's New DIGIC 4 Image Processor Fuels the 15.1 Megapixel Resolution, Expanded ISO Range and Enhanced Noise Reduction of the New EOS 50D Digital SLR LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y., August 26, 2008 - With the demand for digital SLR cameras reaching unprecedented levels, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging, is answering the call with the announcement of the next evolution in advanced amateur digital SLR photography, the EOS 50D Digital SLR Camera with 15.1 megapixel resolution and Canon's new DIGIC 4 image processor. Designed to offer extraordinary quality and image control for the advanced photographer with a passion for the art, the Canon EOS 50D Digital SLR camera includes an expanded ISO range, improved noise reduction, and in-camera photo editing features. Canon has loaded the EOS 50D camera with a number of enhancements and some trickle-down technology from Canon's professional Digital SLR cameras, as well as a new Creative Auto Mode (CA) that gives users more creative flexibility to make image setting adjustments conveniently without the need to be a photo expert. Canon has built upon the success of the popular EOS 40D model - which will remain in Canon's line - with the EOS 50D Digital SLR camera. Expected to be the camera body of choice for advanced amateur photographers this holiday season, the Canon EOS 50D Digital SLR camera carries over the EOS 40D's 14-bit Analog-to-Digital conversion process for smooth tones, and also includes enhanced noise reduction, especially at higher ISO ranges which will help bring those romantic nighttime shots into greater focus and clarity. Capable of shooting 6.3 frames per second (fps), the EOS 50D Digital SLR camera is ideal for shooting everything from beautiful night landscapes to fast-action sports. "Advanced amateur photographers blur the line between the hobbyist and the professional, looking for professional features and capabilities in their equipment that will allow them to capture that awe-inspiring image. Canon is constantly striving to provide these shooters with the most advanced imaging technology, like the new EOS 50D Digital SLR camera, to fuel their passion for photography, and help them achieve their creative potential," stated Yuichi Ishizuka, senior vice president and general manager, Consumer Imaging Group, Canon U.S.A. Improved Image Quality The EOS 50D Digital SLR camera's 15.1-megapixel CMOS APS-C size image sensor has been improved thanks to the use of newly designed gapless microlenses over each pixel to reduce noise and expand sensitivity up to ISO 12800. The faster processing speed of the camera's DIGIC 4 image processor contributes to the fast 6.3 frame-per-second (fps) continuous shooting capability (for bursts of up to 90 Large/Fine JPEGs or 16 RAW images on a UDMA CF card), to give shooters the tools they need to capture that perfect moment in perfect clarity. The Canon EOS 50D camera provides ISO speeds from ISO 100 up to ISO 3200 in 1/3-stop increments, along with two high-speed settings - H1 and H2 - of ISO 6400 and ISO 12800, respectively. Along with a wide ISO range, Canon gives shooters more tools to help maximize clarity and color. The EOS 50D Digital SLR camera offers multiple levels of noise reduction during high-speed shooting. Users can choose from one of four settings- Standard/Weak/Strong/None - to help reduce digital noise that can result from poor lighting conditions. As part of the camera's internal image processing, the Canon EOS 50D Digital SLR camera conducts peripheral illumination correction, which automatically evens brightness across the image field, making an image of a blue sky even toned throughout, a function previously accomplished through post-processing software on a personal computer. Thanks largely to the DIGIC 4 processor, this automatic adjustment can be made in-camera during shooting with JPEG images or corrected in post-photoshoot processing with RAW images through Canon's Digital Photo Professional (DPP) software, which is supplied at no extra charge. Helping to ensure each picture's subject is clearly visible, Canon's enhanced Auto Lighting Optimizer analyzes the brightness of subjects and automatically adjusts dark images so that they appear brighter, perfect for subjects in shade or in backlit situations. The Auto Lighting Optimizer on the EOS 50D Digital SLR camera has been updated not only to optimize images while they are being taken, but can also optimize images post-capture, during playback, to help ensure the subject of each image does not appear too dark. This is especially helpful when an amateur photographer uses the camera, because post-capture enhancement can help maximize image quality without the need of a computer. A significant upgrade to the Canon EOS 50D camera is its large, clear 3.0-inch Clear View LCD screen which features 920,000 dot/VGA resolution, four times the pixel count of the EOS 40D camera's screen, for better clarity and color. To help show off those fantastic shots, the EOS 50D camera includes an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) output to display crisp, clear images on a High-Definition TV. The EOS 50D recognizes the needs of today's photographers, and the faster processing speed of the DIGIC 4 processor helps support UDMA cards for faster writing of image files. The camera is also equipped with a high-performance viewfinder featuring 0.95x magnification and the same high-performance Autofocus (AF) system as the EOS 40D camera with nine cross-type sensors for accurate target subject acquisition with lenses possessing maximum apertures of f/5.6 or faster and a high-precision diagonal center cross-type AF point that's effective with f/2.8 and faster lenses, helping photographers ensure better focus of their targets. The AF Microadjustment feature, originally introduced last year with the Canon EOS-1D Mark III professional digital SLR camera, has also been added to the EOS 50D for maximum control over focusing precision. Canon Gets Creative For Advancing Amateurs Canon is taking steps to give advanced amateurs more flexibility with a new "CA" Creative Full Auto setting on the EOS 50D Digital SLR camera's mode dial. This new setting goes a step beyond Full Auto, by allowing users to make adjustments before shooting while still in an Automatic mode, without needing to know the meaning of technical terms such as aperture, shutter speed, etc. In this mode, the camera menu on the back screen spells out options in common language for average photo enthusiasts, allowing them to "blur the background" or "lighten or darken the image." These easy-to-comprehend image options will help amateur photographers improve the shots they are capable of taking, while helping them learn new techniques. When in the new CA mode, users will be able to adjust flash settings, brighten or darken images, blur the background, set the camera's drive mode, and select a picture style directly on the camera's LCD screen. Better Live View For photographers who prefer to frame their shots using the camera's 3.0-inch Clear View LCD screen, Canon has improved the Live View function of the EOS 50D Digital SLR camera to include "Quick Mode AF," "Live Mode AF," and "Face Detection Live Mode AF" that detects up to 35 individual forward-looking faces for better focus and clarity when taking group or portrait shots. The camera's Quick Mode AF setting flips the mirror down and carries out regular phase-detection autofocus, while the Live Mode AF and Face Detection Live Mode AF use the camera's CMOS image sensor for contrast detection autofocus. Two detailed grid displays have also been added to Live View shooting as optional settings for easier composition. Two Small RAW Formats In addition to the RAW and JPEG image capture modes that photographers are accustomed to, the EOS 50D Digital SLR camera now offers more manageable resolution settings and file sizes with two sRAW recording formats, sRAW1 and sRAW2. At the sRAW1 setting, resolution is 7.1 megapixels with a file size that is approximately 25 percent smaller than a standard 15.1 megapixel RAW image. With the sRAW2 setting, resolution is 3.8 megapixels at less than half the file size of a standard RAW image, retaining all of the flexibility and creative possibilities associated with full-size, conventional RAW images. The EOS 50D is the first Canon Digital SLR that allows the use of RAW and sRAW settings in Basic Zone as well as Creative Zone shooting modes, even further improving the camera's flexibility. EOS Integrated Cleaning System The Self-Cleaning Sensor Unit for the Canon EOS 50D has also been upgraded and now includes a fluorine coating on the low-pass filter for better dust resistance. The Self-Cleaning Sensor Unit uses ultrasonic vibrations to shake dust particles off of the low-pass filter in front of the sensor each time the camera is powered up or shut down. The second part of the system includes a software component where sensor spots are mapped and saved as Dust Delete Data that is attached to the image file for removal during post processing using Canon's DPP software. Pricing and Availability The EOS 50D is compatible with the full lineup of Canon EF lenses as well as the Company's ever-growing line of affordable EF-S lenses created specifically for Canon Digital SLRs with APS-C size image sensors. The Canon EOS 50D Digital SLR camera is scheduled for October delivery and will be sold in a body-only configuration at an estimated selling price of $1,399.00*. It will additionally be offered in a kit version with Canon's EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM zoom lens at an estimated selling price of $1,599.00*. New EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens Canon has answered the call from advanced amateur photographers looking for a solid all-around lens with the introduction of the new EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS zoom lens. With an incredible focal length range equivalent to 29-320mm in the 35mm format, the new EF-S 18-200mm lens will make an excellent addition to any camera bag, and it gives shooters a great lens to capture both standard as well as telephoto images. The new lens features Canon's built in Optical Image Stabilization system which gives the equivalent effect of a shutter speed roughly 4 steps faster, for better image clarity, even in shaky shooting conditions. With a minimum focusing distance of 0.45m/1.5 ft. at all zoom settings, this new lens should prove to be ideal for those situations where swapping lenses isn't an option. An ideal complement to the EOS 50D SLR camera and all other EF-S compatible EOS SLR cameras, the EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens is scheduled to be in stores this October at an estimated selling price of $699.00*. photo camera photography<img width='1' height='1' src='http://feeds.uk.gizmodo.com/c/552/f/9594/s/1bec4ea/mf.gif'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/08/26/canon_eos_50d_dslr_gets_offici.html&#38;link=Canon EOS 50D DSLR Gets Official" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://uk.gizmodo.com/2008/08/26/canon_eos_50d_dslr_gets_offici.html&#38;link=Canon EOS 50D DSLR Gets Official" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[At the weekend, we caught glimpse of the new Canon EOS 50D from leaked information on Canon's Chinese site but today we have the real deal, complete with official photo of the new snapper for 'advanced amateur photographers'. The camera sits in above the current 40D and below the semi-professional 5D and is Canon's first to use the Digic 4 processor. Digic 4 allows for faster snapping and carries out peripheral illumination correction, which automatically evens brightness across the image field, to make photos of a blue sky, for instance, evenly toned. Previously, this effect effect had to be recreated with photo software on a PC. The 50D features a 15.1MP sensor and the EOS 40D's 14-bit Analog-to-Digital conversion process for smooth tones. There is enhanced noise reduction, greater ISO sensitivity up to ISO 12800, and it is capable of shooting 6.3 frames per second (fps). It also has a 3in Clear View LCD screen with a 920,000 dot/VGA resolution - 4 times that on the EOS 40D. There is also a handy HDMI slot for hooking the camera up to a HDTV. The Self-Cleaning Sensor Unit is similar to that in the 40D but this time it includes a fluorine coating on the low-pass filter for better dust resistance. In addition to the body, Canon has also launched a 'solid all-around lens' with the EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS zoom lens. Due in October, the 50D body is priced - US for the moment - at around £700 with the new lens coming in at £350. A kit version with Canon's EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM zoom lens will cost around £800. Full US press release below.-Martin Lynch CANON U.S.A. STIMULATES THE CREATIVITY OF EXPERIENCED PHOTOGRAPHERS WITH THE INTRODUCTION OF THE NEW EOS 50D DIGITAL SLR CAMERA Canon's New DIGIC 4 Image Processor Fuels the 15.1 Megapixel Resolution, Expanded ISO Range and Enhanced Noise Reduction of the New EOS 50D Digital SLR LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y., August 26, 2008 - With the demand for digital SLR cameras reaching unprecedented levels, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging, is answering the call with the announcement of the next evolution in advanced amateur digital SLR photography, the EOS 50D Digital SLR Camera with 15.1 megapixel resolution and Canon's new DIGIC 4 image processor. Designed to offer extraordinary quality and image control for the advanced photographer with a passion for the art, the Canon EOS 50D Digital SLR camera includes an expanded ISO range, improved noise reduction, and in-camera photo editing features. Canon has loaded the EOS 50D camera with a number of enhancements and some trickle-down technology from Canon's professional Digital SLR cameras, as well as a new Creative Auto Mode (CA) that gives users more creative flexibility to make image setting adjustments conveniently without the need to be a photo expert. Canon has built upon the success of the popular EOS 40D model - which will remain in Canon's line - with the EOS 50D Digital SLR camera. Expected to be the camera body of choice for advanced amateur photographers this holiday season, the Canon EOS 50D Digital SLR camera carries over the EOS 40D's 14-bit Analog-to-Digital conversion process for smooth tones, and also includes enhanced noise reduction, especially at higher ISO ranges which will help bring those romantic nighttime shots into greater focus and clarity. Capable of shooting 6.3 frames per second (fps), the EOS 50D Digital SLR camera is ideal for shooting everything from beautiful night landscapes to fast-action sports. "Advanced amateur photographers blur the line between the hobbyist and the professional, looking for professional features and capabilities in their equipment that will allow them to capture that awe-inspiring image. Canon is constantly striving to provide these shooters with the most advanced imaging technology, like the new EOS 50D Digital SLR camera, to fuel their passion for photography, and help them achieve their creative potential," stated Yuichi Ishizuka, senior vice president and general manager, Consumer Imaging Group, Canon U.S.A. Improved Image Quality The EOS 50D Digital SLR camera's 15.1-megapixel CMOS APS-C size image sensor has been improved thanks to the use of newly designed gapless microlenses over each pixel to reduce noise and expand sensitivity up to ISO 12800. The faster processing speed of the camera's DIGIC 4 image processor contributes to the fast 6.3 frame-per-second (fps) continuous shooting capability (for bursts of up to 90 Large/Fine JPEGs or 16 RAW images on a UDMA CF card), to give shooters the tools they need to capture that perfect moment in perfect clarity. The Canon EOS 50D camera provides ISO speeds from ISO 100 up to ISO 3200 in 1/3-stop increments, along with two high-speed settings - H1 and H2 - of ISO 6400 and ISO 12800, respectively. Along with a wide ISO range, Canon gives shooters more tools to help maximize clarity and color. The EOS 50D Digital SLR camera offers multiple levels of noise reduction during high-speed shooting. Users can choose from one of four settings- Standard/Weak/Strong/None - to help reduce digital noise that can result from poor lighting conditions. As part of the camera's internal image processing, the Canon EOS 50D Digital SLR camera conducts peripheral illumination correction, which automatically evens brightness across the image field, making an image of a blue sky even toned throughout, a function previously accomplished through post-processing software on a personal computer. Thanks largely to the DIGIC 4 processor, this automatic adjustment can be made in-camera during shooting with JPEG images or corrected in post-photoshoot processing with RAW images through Canon's Digital Photo Professional (DPP) software, which is supplied at no extra charge. Helping to ensure each picture's subject is clearly visible, Canon's enhanced Auto Lighting Optimizer analyzes the brightness of subjects and automatically adjusts dark images so that they appear brighter, perfect for subjects in shade or in backlit situations. The Auto Lighting Optimizer on the EOS 50D Digital SLR camera has been updated not only to optimize images while they are being taken, but can also optimize images post-capture, during playback, to help ensure the subject of each image does not appear too dark. This is especially helpful when an amateur photographer uses the camera, because post-capture enhancement can help maximize image quality without the need of a computer. A significant upgrade to the Canon EOS 50D camera is its large, clear 3.0-inch Clear View LCD screen which features 920,000 dot/VGA resolution, four times the pixel count of the EOS 40D camera's screen, for better clarity and color. To help show off those fantastic shots, the EOS 50D camera includes an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) output to display crisp, clear images on a High-Definition TV. The EOS 50D recognizes the needs of today's photographers, and the faster processing speed of the DIGIC 4 processor helps support UDMA cards for faster writing of image files. The camera is also equipped with a high-performance viewfinder featuring 0.95x magnification and the same high-performance Autofocus (AF) system as the EOS 40D camera with nine cross-type sensors for accurate target subject acquisition with lenses possessing maximum apertures of f/5.6 or faster and a high-precision diagonal center cross-type AF point that's effective with f/2.8 and faster lenses, helping photographers ensure better focus of their targets. The AF Microadjustment feature, originally introduced last year with the Canon EOS-1D Mark III professional digital SLR camera, has also been added to the EOS 50D for maximum control over focusing precision. Canon Gets Creative For Advancing Amateurs Canon is taking steps to give advanced amateurs more flexibility with a new "CA" Creative Full Auto setting on the EOS 50D Digital SLR camera's mode dial.

These easy-to-comprehend image options will help amateur photographers improve the shots they are capable of taking, while helping them learn new techniques. When in the new CA mode, users will be able to adjust flash settings, brighten or darken images, blur the background, set the camera's drive mode, and select a picture style directly on the camera's LCD screen. Better Live View For photographers who prefer to frame their shots using the camera's 3.0-inch Clear View LCD screen, Canon has improved the Live View function of the EOS 50D Digital SLR camera to include "Quick Mode AF," "Live Mode AF," and "Face Detection Live Mode AF" that detects up to 35 individual forward-looking faces for better focus and clarity when taking group or portrait shots. The camera's Quick Mode AF setting flips the mirror down and carries out regular phase-detection autofocus, while the Live Mode AF and Face Detection Live Mode AF use the camera's CMOS image sensor for contrast detection autofocus.
