New Sony Cyber-Shot Camera Clears Up Life's Blurry Moments

Sony is building up its arsenal of anti-blur, digital still cameras to help people who are out on the town win the fight against blur with the introduction of the new 7.2-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-T30 model making fuzzy images a thing of the past. Equipped with double anti-blur protection, you can press the DSC-T30 model’s Super Steady Shot® optical image stabilization and high-sensitivity mode buttons in seconds, and reduce the chance of taking a blurry picture the very first time – especially in low-light conditions. The Super Steady Shot technology minimizes blur caused by shaky hands, while the new camera’s high light sensitivity (ISO 1000) mode reduces blur resulting from shooting at faster shutter speeds. There’s even added defense with Sony’s Clear RAW™ noise reduction system, which kicks in to counter picture noise associated with high-sensitivity shooting. Armed with features for optimal shooting and sharing, the new camera with its Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® 3x optical zoom lens combines power, portability and distinctive playback. Its slide show with music function is ideal for viewing on the camera’s three-inch, Clear Photo LCD Plus™ screen. The camera's InfoLithium® battery provides plenty of power – up to 420 shots per full charge and it has 58MB of internal memory, just in case you forget your memory card. Its capacity can be expanded up to two gigabytes, however, with an optional Memory Stick Duo™ media card. It comes with an InfoLithium battery, battery charger, multi-connector cable, wrist strap and software CD-ROM. Optional accessories include a travel charger (BC-TR1, about $60), Cyber-shot Station (CSS-TNA, about $80), a marine pack (MPK-THC, about $200), and a genuine leather cover (LCJ-THA, about $40). For about $500 at Sony Style retail stores and at authorized dealers nationwide, the Cyber-shot DSC-T30 camera could be yours next month.

THE OLYMPUS 'SMALL BUT MIGHTY'


This Olympus µ (mju) 810 is the smallest and, arguably, one of the best looking cameras in its class. But anyone thinking that the camera is just a pretty face should look beyond the weatherproof* stainless steel skin, to the technological marvel beneath. The camera slips into a shirt pocket and pack 8.0 million pixel resolution. In addition to this mighty pixel count there’s a bright 3x optical zoom (equiv. to 35-105mm in 35mm format) cleverly designed to take up as little space as possible. By employing a collapsible lens mechanism and repositioning the shutter the size of this lens has been kept to an absolute minimum – a mere 17mm – making a significant contribution to reducing the size of the camera. Employing Olympus’s BrightCapture Technology makes night time shooting significantly easier. You can capture the ambiance of a night time scene, without spoiling the mood by using flash. It increases the camera’s sensitivity to light allowing perfectly exposed shots to be recorded using natural light, even when the sun has gone down, and at the same time brightens the camera’s LCD screen to make it easier to frame photos.

The Mamiya ZD



"We're still saving our pennies for a digital SLR, but if you're a pro used to medium-format gear (or a very well-heeled consumer), $12 grand may seem like a reasonable price for the Mamiya ZD, the first medium format digital camera kit (especially since digital backs for medium format film cameras can go for even more than that). The 22 megapixel (yes, that says 22) Mamiya ZD has been the subject of buzz, rumors and lust since it was first announced at Photokina last September, and now it looks like the wait is almost over. Mamiya has announced that the camera should start shipping this summer. We, of course, will still be saving our pennies."
