In fact that’s what its name is short for, so you are wondering, how can a canopy bed be high fidelity? Well, its simple, there is a projector, sound system, and projection screen that you can’t readily see, all built in.

Mr. Terada is apparently a genius, and of all the things he likely could have done with his mind, he chose to bring us all video capture capabilities on our DSLR cameras. In case you don’t know, DSLR’s are the high end digital cameras that everyone and their brother is carrying around these days, other than the fact that they have changeable lenses, most people that have them after this past Christmas season probably have no clue why they have them.

sigzilla sigma 200 500mm 942912

The gigantic Sigzllla that we mentioned earlier got the price updated from impress this morning. As we’ve mentioned, the size and weight are not beyond impossible but it’s unrealistic for field works, not to mention the huge price tag of $25,000 (2,625,000 yen). Sigma might want to scratch off their press release listing portraits and wildlife as targeted field of photography suitable for this lens. But i have to admit, that SigmaGodzilla is one sexy beast, wildlife or not, chicks will not have problems posing with or without feather cloths on.

I don’t have much experience with fisheye glass, the only few I ever got were with Canon EF 15mm F2.8 fisheye down at the Dallas city rookery. Granted, a 15mm is too wide for birdies but definitely not enough for panorama freaks with crop-factor DSLR. If 5.6mm is wide enough for you, Sunex just launched a SuperFisheye at PMA 2008.

Competing in the cutthroat Digital SLR market if you don’t have lens selection with the size of Amazon’s tropical forest like Nikon or Canon. Having the state of art body isn’t going to sell unless you have full line-up of lens from amateur to professional market. Pentax brought us their newly K20D body yesterday together with 5 new smc PENTAX-DA Lens ranges from a prime Tele to wide angle, I say that’s quite an announcement from them!

I wonder at what point do point and shoots stop and DSLR’s start? The only reason I ask is because this and a few other cameras seem to be pushing those boundaries and causing for some serious overlap.
