from the Washington Post / Leica CEO dept.
Given the recent press release regarding the M7,
which was really expected after the CEO's
comments are here.
We
may
expect a Medium Format Camera in the works, which
may even be an SLR! Possibly a MF Rangfinder or
even both types. Sounds like a man on a mission :-

from the Sigma / dpreview.com dept.
Pre-PMA 2002: Sigma's new SD9
D-SLR will be the first digital camera to utilize
Foveon's recently
announced X3 sensor technology.
This new camera has a 3.43 megapixel (effective)
X3 sensor
which outputs 2268 x 1512 x 3
pixels. Each pixel is 9 microns which makes the
sensor 20.7 x
13.8 mm (a 1.7x focal length
multiplier). The SD9 has a Sigma lens mount and a
unique dust
protector just behind the lens
mount to stop dust from attaching itself to the
sensor. Price is
expected to be around US$3,000.

Full Story here.
"The Foveon X3 is the world's first color image
sensor that captures red, green and blue light at
each pixel, resulting in brilliantly sharper
images, enhanced color, and freedom from unwanted
"color rainbow" artifacts common in photographs
from today's digital cameras."

Rumor of Nikon 28-200 F2.8 VR? |
 |

Posted by Walter Bibikow on

from the New Stuff dept.
In an article in the March 2002 issue of US
magazine Popular Photography, there are several
mentions about a new Nikon lens: 28-200 F2.8 VR.
Very little is said about the lens except for its
ample size. Unless, Mr. Keppler was smoking wacky
tobaccy this is a true milestone with great
range, great speed (F2.8) and VR (Vibration
control. Any comments?

Flash photography with Canon EOS

Flash photography with Canon EOS article
published online.
There has long been a dearth of useful
information on flash photography with EOS
gear. So I've decided to try and rectify that a
little by writing up a treatise on the subject.
I believe it's the most comprehensive
discussion of the topic available online, and
hopefully will be of interest and value to many
people, including users of other camera
systems.

recommend it!

This
web site suggests that Canon is soon to release
a 500mm f/2.8 DO IS USM and 200-400 f/4 DO IS USM.
These are quite amazing developments, especially the
500/f2.8 the likes of which has never been seen
before.
