  • Canon EOS 500D for Summer

    So, it is official and for everybody to see: There is no Canon EOS 500D to see in the PMA 2009 in Las Vegas. Some of us who could be troubled by this delay applied to the newest bright entry-level SLR camera from Canon (Nikon has been putting a lot of pressure on them lately)…

  • Full Frame comparison

    Gizmodo, the gadget blog, sometimes has a few interesting posts about digital photography. Today, this is the case with their “Canon 5D Mark II vs. Nikon D700 Review Shoot-Out” which turned out to face the two digital cameras in real-life conditions of night photo (of course, they wanted to compare high-ISO pictures and noise).

  • Canon EOS 500D will be late

    According to Northlight Images, the EOS 500D is now set to launch only in August 2009. It may be linked to the current worldwide economic situation, but it would allow the designers to include a 15MP sensor (“later is better”).

  • Sony: A new entry-level SLR

    This is just what is promised by an informer to Photography Bay. Not much about real information (and this may even not be true), but what we learn here is quite interesting and thought-provoking (though quite similar to things that you read previously on YLovePhoto): April 2009 availability Will replace simultaneously the Alpha 200 and…

  • Camera manufacturers in crisis?

    According to Canon Rumours, there could be some concentration moves around the camera manufacturers. Up to this, it’s just in line with what I’ve been telling about some brands whose CEOs have heart burns from the intense current competition. But they also give us names and combinations to think about. Panasonic could buy the photo…

  • Olympus E-620

    Gee! Olympus is presenting us a small camera. A light camera. A nice camera. A 4/3 camera that looks much more sturdy and rugged than what you would expect from less than 700USD. The Olympus E-620 is a fairly good surprise for the upcoming PMA 2009 fair. Not that we were not expecting something, but…
