NEW & COMING SOON! Sony Alpha a33 and a55
24/08/10

Sony UK have announced today two new additions to their range of Digital SLRs with the launch of the a33 and a55.

Sony’s first-ever digital cameras to employ Translucent Mirror Technology showcase an innovative optical system that opens up dramatic new shooting possibilities. In contrast with conventional DSLR cameras, Translucent Mirror Technology uses a fixed, translucent mirror that ‘splits’ the optical pathway between the main image sensor and a separate phase-detection autofocus sensor.

High-resolution live image preview with rapid, accurate phase detection autofocus is thus available at all times – either via the angle-adjustable 3" LCD or precision Tru-Finder (electronic viewfinder). This also ensures that even moving objects stay in sharp focus at all times, whether you’re shooting Full HD video or stills.

Together with the latest iteration of Sony’s powerful BIONZ imaging processor, it supports high-speed continuous shooting plus a sophisticated range of digital image compositing and processing functions. This gives even greater artistic possibilities to beginners and photo enthusiasts alike.

Fujifilm Finepix HS10 - Awarded EISA European Superzoom Camera of the Year
17/08/10

Fujifilm is delighted to announce that the TIPA and DIMA award-winning FinePix HS10 has won an additional award to add to the trophy cabinet. The prestigious “European Superzoom Camera of the Year 2010-2011” honour has been given by the judges at the esteemed European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA) Awards.
Judges were impressed with the HS10’s broad- reaching features which will appeal to advanced photographers and beginners alike. Commenting about the award, the EISA jury said : “Despite the huge 30x optical zoom range, which stretched from 24-720mm, this camera’s lens is comparable in size to a normal 18-55mm SLR kit lens. A lightweight and relatively compact camera, the HS10 offers an image stabiliser as an additional safety net to ensure sharp and detailed images. The camera is an excellent choice for beginners, but there are also plenty of creative functions for the advanced photographer. Besides P/A/S/M exposure modes, the HS10 provides raw-format recording, a hotshoe, an ISO 6400 setting, Full HD video and a 3” adjustable LCD – a camera that will be appreciated by photographers of any level.”
The FinePix HS10 builds on Fujifilm’s multi-award winning “bridge” camera range, re-enforcing Fujifilm’s position as one of the world’s leading innovators in photography technology. With the FinePix HS10’s long zoom, high speed capture and unique features the camera is the ultimate “all in one” photographer’s camera.
