Canon PowerShot N sample shots: Lifelogger or Instagimmick?

Chris Davies, Apr 25th 2013 Discuss [0]

Canon‘s PowerShot N may not have the heft of a DSLR, but it’s arguably more interesting: small enough to be wearable, with Instagram-style filters that can be automatically added, and an unusual control system that puts shutter and zoom around the lens itself. Having been unveiled at CES back in January, we finally got a chance to see what sort of images the PowerShot N could take when we caught up with Canon in – of all places – an abandoned London tube station.

Sony unveils Handycam HDR-GW66VE waterproof camcorder

Brittany Hillen, Apr 24th 2013 Discuss [0]

Although many modern smartphones have the ability to record video in 720p or 1080p HD, in many ways they are still inferior to their dedicated camcorder counterparts, one of which is the newly announced Sony Handycam HDR-GW66VE. This device offers a lot in terms of features, but perhaps its biggest draw is its ruggedness, offering a variety of features that, when combined with its size, take into near action-camcorder territory.

Belkin NetCam HD Wi-Fi camera can now spy on you

Shane McGlaun, Apr 24th 2013 Discuss [0]

During CES in January, we spent some hands-on time with a new Wi-Fi camera from Belkin called the NetCam HD Wi-Fi Camera. At the time as close as we had to an official launch date was "spring." Belkin has now announced the official availability for the little camera and you can purchase it right now. Read The Full Story

Andy Rubin: Android was originally designed for cameras

Craig Lloyd, Apr 16th 2013 Discuss [0]

You may know a little about the Samsung Galaxy Camera, a dedicated point-and-shoot device that runs Android which was one of our go-to gadgets at CES this year. However, did you know that Android was actually meant to run on such a device after all? Andy Rubin, who recently stepped down as Google's Android chief, revealed that original designs of Android were catered towards cameras, not smartphones. Read The Full Story

JVC Procision GC-PX100 slo-mo pro camcorder now shipping

Chris Davies, Apr 16th 2013 Discuss [0]

JVC's Procision GC-PX100 camcorder got somewhat lost in the CES rush back in January, but the company hopes its slow-motion loving pro-shooter will get more attention now that it's shipping. Packing a 12.8-megapixel sensor capable of 1080/60p video at 36Mbps, the GC-PX100 can capture Full HD footage at between 120fps and 600fps for silky-smooth slowed down sports or action shots, in addition to pulling nine frames of stills from video.

Craig Lloyd, Apr 8th 2013 Discuss [0]

We've talked about Blackmagic before, but overall they're not all that well known in the mainstream world. However, they make some pretty interesting and high-quality cameras for professionals and enthusiasts alike. Today at NAB 2013, the company unveiled two new cameras, one of which is the Production Camera 4K and the other being the Pocket Cinema Camera. Read The Full Story

Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera leaks a little early

Shane McGlaun, Apr 8th 2013 Discuss [0]

It's interesting that some Hollywood level movie and TV show recording is performed on DSLR and other handheld cameras rather than full-sized movie cameras that we typically think of when it comes to filming movies and TV shows. It makes a lot of sense that in a tight environment, a smaller handheld camera would be easier to use for movie and TV producers. We talked about a company called Blackmagic in the past when it unveiled the Cinema Camera that uses micro four thirds camera lenses. Read The Full Story

I fell for the HTC One in a Tokyo cat cafe

Chris Davies, Mar 31st 2013 Discuss [0]

I started off liking the HTC One. Now, having used it as my only camera while on holiday in Japan this past week, I’m in love with it. HTC has a whole lot riding on the One this year, and one of the more contentious features is the Zoe photography system, blending stills and short videos that are simultaneously captured in what the company says will “bring to life” your photo gallery. Attempts to differentiate from the gush of other Android devices with software customization is something we’ve seen so often now, it’s hard not to be cynical (and simply demand “pure” Android instead), but Zoe has turned out to be a different story.
