Bu da fısıltı gazetesinde uzun süredir başlıkları iştigal eden cihazlardandı, ama artık resmiyete kavuştu. SCH-W880 dünyanın ilk 12MP kameralı ve optik zumlu cep telefonu. Samsung oldukça güzel dış görünüşü olan bu cihaza 3x optik zum, Xenon flaş ve 720p video çekme özellikleri sığdırmayı başarmış. W880′in görüntüleme yetenekleri yeni bir tartışmayı da beraberinde getiriyor; bu cihaz ataları gibi bir “kameralı telefon” mu, yoksa terminolojiye yeni bir isim katarak bir “telefonlu kamera” mı yaratmış Samsung? Kore bunun cevabını ilk öğrenecek ülke olacak, bizim ise ağzımızın suyu bir süre daha akmaya devam edecek gibi gözüküyor.

The New Pentax K-x in all its glory

Pentax bugün sonunda bir süredir fısıltı gazetesini meşgul eden K-x DSLR modelini resmen açıkladı. K-x aynı fiyat seviyesindeki rakiplerine göre kayda değer özelliklere sahip uygun fiyatlı bir DSLR olarak dikkat çekiyor.

12.4 megapiksel CMOS resm sensörü ve sensör kaydırmalı titreşim önleme sistemi ile ilk golü atan K-x, genişekran ve saniyede 24 kare 720p video ve özellikle True High Dynamic Range (geniş dinamik erim) fotoğraf özellikleri ile fiyatını hakettiğini kanıtlıyor. 2.7 inç Canlı Görüntü özellikli LCD ekranı, saniyede 4.7 kare fotoğraf çekme özelliği, 1/6000 saniye deklanşör hızı da kayda değer diğer özelliklerinden K-x’in. Pentax bu canavarı ABD’de $599.95 fiyat etiketiyle, 18-55mm’lik objektif ile takımlayarak satmayı düşünüyor.

PENTAX ANNOUNCES AFFORDABLE, NEW PENTAX K-x WITH HIGH-END FEATURES INCLUDING HD VIDEO AND LIVE VIEW
GOLDEN, CO (September 16, 2009)… PENTAX Imaging Company redefines the entry-level digital SLR category with the introduction of the K-x digital SLR.  This latest PENTAX camera offers high-end features including Live View and HD video.  And, since there’s no rule that SLR cameras must come in black only, the K-x will be available in a choice of white or black, as well as special, limited edition red and navy.

Priced at $599.95 USD (for body with DA L 18-55mm lens), the extremely compact and lightweight PENTAX K-x forges ahead on the trail initiated by the popular PENTAX K2000.   With a one-handed shooting design and simple, easy-to-use operation, the K-x is perfect for users stepping up from a point and shoot digital camera to their first digital SLR.

The PENTAX K-x offers photographic performance that challenges higher class DSLR models and offers several features that set this camera apart in the entry-level category:

•         High resolution 12.4 megapixel CMOS image sensor features sensor-shift Shake Reduction for stabilized image and video capture up to 4 stops max.

•         Large 2.7 inch LCD features Live View with contrast, phase difference, and Face Detection autofocus (up to 16 faces).

•         Widescreen HD video capture in full 720p resolution (1280×720) at 24 FPS cinematic framerate, using any PENTAX 35mm lens.

•         Creative processing and filter modes produce high quality finished images, while offering the ability to explore artistic freedom through unique special effects.

•         True High Dynamic Range (HDR) image capture blends 3 bracketed images into a single picture with outstanding shadow, highlight, and midrange detail.

•         Fast 4.7 FPS capture speed and 1/6000 second maximum shutter speeds are possible with the PENTAX PRIME II image processing engine.

•         Powerful automatic modes, including PENTAX Auto Picture and scene modes, ensure the perfect shot in any situation, while helping new photographers learn DSLR photography.

•         Responsive 11 point wide angle SAFOX VIII autofocus system focuses quickly and accurately, and can easily track moving subjects.

•         Captures up to 1900 shots with universally available, easy-to-find AA lithium batteries (also compatible with AA NiMH rechargeable and alkaline batteries).

All combined, the PENTAX K-x is the perfect camera for new digital SLR camera users as well as an ideal backup camera for more experienced photographers.
