This Sony CyberShot ‘Snap’ is the work of designer Young Hwan Kim, and currently just a concept. Intended to resemble a man’s wallet it has a leather-clad cover. However, unlike current cameras, this cover pivots down from the corner to reveal the lens and flash. Apparently that would make one-handed operation more straightforward.
Rumors are rife that Canon’s German site has accidentally released information about the upcoming EOS 5D Mark II digital SLR. According to the story the mention was spotted and a screengrab saved before Canon realised and edited the page. Specs for the Mark II are given as a 16-megapixel CMOS sensor with the [...]
This new Xacti is waterproof, to an extent. The thing is, its not some weak extent like you can splash it and probably still be safe, no, you can take this thing up to 1.5 meters deep and hold and use it there for up to an hour.

This particular digital camcorder can record video, capture still images, play video games, read ebooks, play music, take voice [...]
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.
This is the latest effort from Sanyo to penetrate the market of the common/casual user with their video cameras. It still supports H.264 video which is great for those major YouTube uploaders out there, but its been fattened up due to surveys of the general public.
