  • The Canon EOS 50D is official now

    We have been talking a lot about it lately. Now, the Canon EOS 50D is out in the open, announced by Canon itself. If you followed here, nothing will surprise you. Even the body-only price of $1,399/£1,199.99/1499€ is expected (we’ll wait for a little step down when the camera is really available, in October 2008).…

    Canon EOS 50D – Official photos

    The Canon Japanese web site did it again. Now we get a neary full description of the new Canon EOS 50D. With all nice photos of the replacement for the Canon EOS 40D. Seeing that this also presents a 15MP camera, I start to wonder whether Canon has really a replacement ready for the EOS…

  • Nikon D90 at Target

    Indirect confirmation of what we told previously here about the future replacement for the Nikon D80.

  • D3x with Sony sensor

    According to German photo magazine, Foto Magazin, the future Nikon D3x pro SLR camera will be fitted with the Sony image sensor that was presented a few months ago and that is expected to appear on the Sony Alpha 900 camera (high-end D-SLR from Sony). If this is confirmed, it would mean that the Nikon…

  • Nikon D4, what’s in a name?

    This is nearly confirmed, the successor to the very nice Nikon D3 will be named Nikon D4 (and not D3x as was imagined before). The (negative) information comes directly from Chasseurs d’Image and seems very reliable. I guess it means that Nikon feels this will be a major step forward and not only an upgrade…

  • Nikon D700, boost continuous shooting

    The new full Frame SLR camera from Nikon is just out and there is already a little hack appearing to give it additional features. The Nikon D700 has the capacity to shoot continuously at 8fps if you use the additonal grip. Nikon Watch found a way to allow this very high frame rate without the…
