Nikon says it’s developing a competitor to Canon’s G11

Well, here’s something you don’t hear everyday — a Nikon exec saying that Canon’s PowerShot G11 is the “benchmark” against which other compact cameras are measured. According to Nikon UK’s senior product manager Kevin Egan, however, that may not be the case for much longer, as he says that Nikon is now developing a new Coolpix model that will give the G11 a run for its money. That word comes from an interview in the latest issue of Amateur Photographer, in which Egan also revealed that the camera will use “combine some of the technology of Nikon’s DSLRs with the build quality of a high-end Coolpix.” What’s more, Egan said that Nikon has actually planned to introduce the camera alongside its latest batch of Coolpix models, but that it wasn’t quite ready. No official word on when that new release date might be, but Nikon has already begun teasing something ahead of a press event on March 8th.

Red One Review

Its been a while since I have taken a look at cameras. I have been lost in the world of ease of use with my iPhone. With portability you rarely think about a true image of brilliance such as the Red One™. The great thing about this camera is it is the only camera built for the upgrade. What I mean by that last statement, think of a car, you want it to go fast but you got to start at the stock model. Well with the Red One™ it is the same idea. It only weights 10 lbs, with a modular design which allows it to be upgraded as the team at Red Digital Cinema works on updates. This camera is an investment for a life time of use and upgrades starting at 17,500 USD. Also there are 50+ upgrades that you can choose from to make your Red a life time of great cinematography.

Recent Movies made with Red Cameras are “Gamer” directed by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, “District 9″ directed by Neill Blomkamp and “My Bloody Valentine 3D” directed by Patrick Lussier.
info from (http://www.red.com) “Red One”offers the Mysterium™ Super 35mm cine sized (24.4×13.7mm) sensor, which provides 4K (up to 30 fps), 3K (up to 60 fps) and 2K (up to 120 fps) capture, and all this with wide dynamic range and color space in 12 bit native RAW. At 4K, that’s more than 5 times the amount of information available every second and a vastly superior recording quality. In addition, you get the same breathtaking Depth of Field and selective focus as found in film cameras using equivalent 35mm P/L mount lenses. Mysterium™ boasts greater than 66db Dynamic Range thanks to its large 29 sq. micron pixels. And 12,065,000 pixels deliver resolution that can only be called Ultra High Definition.
