Canon Press Event

Two days after Sony’s upcoming press event, Canon has also scheduled a press event.  Could this be the official unveiling of the (much leaked) Canon 60D?

Sony A900 USB Flash Drive

by on August 13, 2010

in Sony

Not to be outdone by the Canon 5D Mark II USB flash drive, there’s now a replica of a Sony A900 as a USB flash drive.  MICgadget.com says they will set you back about $29 USD in China for 4GB of storage, but I haven’t found any retailers that’ll ship these to the US yet.

Let us know in the comments if you find these for sale.

(UPDATE: Tracked down, and available here for $19. Thanks Phil.)

Sony Japan has announced that the NEX E-Mount 18-200mm lens (which is packaged with the Sony NEX-VG10) will be available in September 2010 for 99750 yen for other NEX-format cameras; however, US pricing should be in the neighborhood of $800-900 as a best guess.

No word yet on availability stateside, or official US pricing for that matter.  It’s a good sign that we’ll see the E-Mount 18-200mm lens on NEX-3 and NEX-5 cameras soon though.

Flickr user, powerpig, responded to those questioning whether the above photo, and his other chipmunk photos were all just Photoshop. Well, they’re not, and the video below is proof of how he captures these remarkable chipmunk images. [click to continue…]

The very popular (and colorful) Pentax K-x has received another series of color treatment updates, and is now available in pink, chocolate, olive and beige.

You can see the entire lineup of the K-x rainbow at the Pentax US webstore ($650 for body and lens).

Although, if you can live with black, you can get the K-x with lens for under $500 now.
