If you’re partial to surreptitiously-acquired videos of amorous couples, bu have ever been frustrated at the poor quality of the dodgy CCTV footage currently available, Arecont Vision have some good news [pdf link] for you. The video camera company have unveiled a new set of IP cameras that feature the company’s own proprietary implementation of H.264 compression. [...]
Photography is one of those things that many love but not everyone wants to put the effort into lugging around a bunch of equipment. I actually took a few classes in photography and still only take out a tripod if it is absolutely necessary. This case, although not quite as great as a [...]
The geek in me wants to love these camera-encrusted sunglasses, but the rest of me (i.e. the bit that looks after the credit card) recognises them as the awful junk that they are. Basically a pair of UV400 polarized lenses with a frame burdened down thanks to a 1.3-megapixel digital camera and MP3 player, they [...]
It might not have the super-compact body of Sony’s HDR-TG1, nor the sturdiness of Sanyo’s Xacti, but DXG trounces both of them with the price of its HD camcorder. The DXG-569V can capture 1280 x 720 video at 30 fps and shoot 5-megapixel stills, all for just $169. It might only have a digital zoom (2x) but the 3-inch rotating LCD is [...]
Using Nikon’s Wave-Surface camera body these two cameras look amazing and offer up 9MP of photographic goodness. You also get a 3x NIKKOR optical zoom and OVR or optical vibration reduction as well as up to ISO 3200 shots.
No, instead it’s a giant manufacturing grade one-armed robot with a plastic version of a Titanic-sized propeller on the front of it that spins like a fan. As if that wasn’t creepy enough, it moves, and using the cameras on its base it can follow you round, like as if its aiming at you.
Things I like about this camera: the up to 1080i recording resolution, the shiny exterior, the fact that it comes with 4GB of storage. Things I don’t like about this camera: the 4GB of storage come on a Memory Stick PRO Duo card and the AVCHD recording codec.
Panasonic is announcing a new addition to their Lumix line of digital cameras. This particular one has a touchscreen on the back, 5x optical zoom, a 10.1MP shot and a mega wide-angel Leica DC lens measuring at 25mm wide.
For starters, it has HD video capabilities as well as a 10.2MP image sensor. All that is recorded through a 24mm wide Schneider lens with a 3.6x optical zoom, so far this camera seems pretty mediocre, but I assure you its not.
For any camera lovers that appreciate the classic and slightly more antique cameras might enjoy this new gadget. The best of both worlds, designed to look like the Rolleriflex 2.8F, but comes packed full of modern technology.
