Neato.

gimmick

I dunno, I see it taking off. Think about all the times people take pics at parties and get togethers and everyone wants to see them. No one takes the time to hook the camera up to a tv so they all strain around the little lcd screen. This would be a quick solution if the battery holds up. I like the idea. *shrug*

+1 to neato.

cool

I kinda want one.

Good idea especially for sharing as lalani pointed out.

I don't know why you can't transfer pictures from one camera to another via IR. I thought that would be here by now.



cept for the fact it has no lens or zoom

Yeah, but that's what I have a real camera for.

it was here years ago... Fuji has ir transfer on a lot of their cameras

+1

People are going to use it.

good, now the rest just have to jump on that so it is universal.

Me too, not enough to actually buy one but just enough to envy anyone else who has one.

I think it's a really neat idea, no more LCD huddling simply project onto the wall and everyone can see easily. Personally, I could see myself uploading all kinds of shots on to an SD card and taking a piece of foam core and projecting the images right there to clients. Poof! Instant, large and cool portfolio viewing.

nikon sucks

Thanks for stopping by, xbox. Insightful, as always.

no prob

when canon makes a similar model, i'll definitely buy it

wooohoo! an emo myspace camera!

lmfao emo people need to finish the job or learn how to do it right.

ugh, I should have gone with that Ricoh instead of this crappy Canon.

I thought you liked the little Canon?

I want a need cam but think Im gonna get a HD corder.

not as much as I like that Ricoh.

Canon dropped from 14 to 10MP on the new G11 :X

And attempted to copy the LX3 with the new S90 with f2.0 on the wide angle (but goes way up to 4.9) ...

Both of them have potential, but no HD video mode. Gonna be interesting to see some sample pics. I'll be kinda pissed if the S90 gets close to competing with the LX3, cause its smaller and has more zoom. People are saying the 4.9 is useless and LX3 only goes to 2.8, but ignore the fact that at similar focal lengths they will likely have similar f-stops. So the extra zoom would only be going above and beyond what the LX3 physically can't even do. It's also likely to be a full $100 cheaper (and widely available to actually purchase).

Heh, and you just bought the LX3. Gotta love how quickly technology changes.

I'm interested in seeing how the new Exmor R sensors work.

Yeah, hence my kinda pissed comment.

Supposedly there are also rumors that the LX4 which people are assuming is due out early 2010 will also have a backlit sensor

14 megapixel P&S
Why?

FujiFilm 3d 'Imaging System'
......

7D preview

Samsung 12 megapixel camera/phone



Phase One 645DF medium format camera

Because if 5 megs is good..14 must be mo' good. Thats what the camera expert at Best Buy told me.

Mark

EDIT: Went over to Wal-Mart and the camera expert there said that you need 14 megs to make up for the small lens....they should know.

Bah, not on P&S cams.

But... I was looking at a Vizio camera not a P&S. Never heard of the P&S brand.

Mark

Har har...p&s = point & shoot

My phone is only 8 megapixel

good god that phase one is sexy



/researching...

The Samsung Camera/Phone intrigues me. I wanna see sample pics. Too bad it's not avail in US any time soon, if at all.

Oh whoops, realized that link was to the 7d... fixed.
Looks neato.

now I wish I hadn't paid cash for my car.

Dayum. I see what you mean.

yeah, for what I paid for my car I could have gotten the camera, a few lenses and the needed accessories.

lol.

Did you end up selling the field cameras?

no, but I shipped them to my mom so I wouldn't be tempted, lol.

The Zumi Digital Camera

why is there no viewfinder? why?

There is one... sitting right on top.

I don't know... I don't see that camera as being worth the money. I guess maybe it would for a one-night-stand, but I don't see us going anywhere long-term.

Oh, totally, no one will buy it. I just thought it was neat.

I was about to post and say I think it's just one of those fun cameras you can get at like Toys R Us and stuff...

Then I saw they actually wanted $170 for it. wtf? For way over-processed out of focus video that looks absolutely nothing like The Wonder Years home videos?

Bah.

Frankencamera

I'd have to stand another inch or two further away
