    Ascend p2

    Wondering why Smartphones are still so fat? Well Huawei might be there with an answer to all the bulk with the new Huawei Ascend P2, a smartphone thats only 6.45mm thick. 

    The leaked images confirm that the Huawei Ascend P2 is indeed in the pipeline, and that too with a mammoth 13 MP camera and a slick metal body. Apart from the details mentioned little is known about the P2 , although rumors are pegging a full 1080p HD display at only 4.5 inches, 2GB of RAM, and a big 3000mAh battery for power.

    The Huawei Ascend P2 is said to be Shipping with Jelly Bean 4.x, and the only think keeping the media vary is the 1.8 GHz Quad Core SOC which is of an unknown / self developed / Chinese nature. Keeping performance estimates on this device low. However, with the recent trend of phablets, Huawei might just do well in a market like India with a Quad Core Full HD Phone, with 2 Gb of RAM at the price of say a Galaxy Grand.

    Get even closer to the action without compromising on quality
    with Samsung’s latest long zoom offering

    IFA – BERLIN, Germany – September 1, 2011 – Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd, a global leader in digital media and digital convergence technologies, today announced the launch of the WB750 camera – featuring a proprietary BSI (Back Side Illuminated) CMOS sensor that ensures consistent professional images and video. Featuring a newly-redesigned image sensor, lens and image processor, the WB750 brings to bear a range of new technologies to deliver unprecedented levels of performance and ease-of-use. The WB750 also features an 18x optical zoom with 24x Smart Zoom technology, making it the longest ever zoom in Samsung’s compact camera portfolio.

    Thanks to its 12.5 Megapixel BSI CMOS sensor, with the WB750 it’s easier than ever to produce consistently high-quality images and video. Introduced to Samsung’s compact camera range for the first time, this pioneering BSI CMOS technology works to significantly reduce image noise and distortion, delivering clear, precise photos and video even in low light conditions. The WB750 is the perfect compact digital camera to have on hand when there is a need for speed, as it can capture stills at up to 10 frames per second in high-speed continuous mode.
    dslr
    “We recognize that consumers want a point and shoot that allows them to get up close to the action and capture images with stunning detail and clarity. We believe that the WB750’s increased zoom and ultra wide angle certainly meet these demands,” said Mr Myoung Sup Han, Senior Vice President and Head of the Digital Imaging Business, Samsung Electronics. “Its portable design makes it the ideal travel companion, putting even more of the world at the consumers’ fingertips and ensuring it can do justice to the most memorable journeys. The unique features of the WB750 offer a rare combination of quality, fun and creativity, particularly for those on the move.”

    The WB750 offers users the best of both worlds: high-quality digital photos as well as Full HD video for incredible depth of color and detail. Samsung’s sophisticated Dual Capture function seamlessly unites the two, allowing users to take 10 Megapixel photos while simultaneously recording video in full 1080p HD quality.

    The camera’s, Creative Movie Maker feature allows users to create movie clips in Full HD quality, complete with a range of creative special effects, right on the camera itself. Rather than needing to upload content to a PC, this feature allows users to get creative by collating photos and videos into one themed file on the device itself, adding impressive effects and music instantly.

    Breathe life into images
    With its range of Panorama features, the WB750 helps convey a sense of dynamism to images. Action Panorama, for example, tracks a moving person or object with a static background to record movement within a single, still photo, whereas the Live Panorama function allows users to easily capture large groups of people simply by holding down the shutter button and sweeping the camera across the scene. The 3D Panorama, works to bring photos to life even further, using one lens and one sensor to create a 3D image, to give family and friends a more realistic appreciation of the photographer’s trip when they return home.

    Consistent quality at the user’s fingertips
    The camera’s innovative HDR (High Dynamic Range) provides an abundance of colors which give an outstanding richness to the WB750’s images, opening up the color spectrum for the most vibrant results. Providing the opportunity to take hyper-realistic images without the use of photo editing software, HDR brings an added level of clarity to images, whether the user is capturing a lake at sunset or a tree-lined street in the morning sun. The WB750 merges multiple exposures of shots to ensure images have an artistic finish, while creating a greater range of luminance results in perfect exposure across all areas. The camera’s HDR feature ensures that WB750 users capture their creative visions through the latest cutting-edge technology.

    With Smart Auto 2.0, the camera can recognize and automatically select the most appropriate setting from a choice of 16 still-image modes and four movie-clip settings, helping users achieve stand-out results. So, even when users are caught-up in the moment, the WB750 will capture every special moment of the user’s journey.

    Customize the world
    Creating stand-out images is even more effortless with the WB750, thanks to its Smart Filter 3.0 feature. The extensive variety of effects and color options lets users customize shots easily. New special effects include: Oil paint, Cartoon, Ink Painting Color and Cross Filter. Users can enjoy the effects of these features both in preview mode and after taking a picture. In addition, Zooming Shot, which can be used in scene mode, makes creating unique shots even easier. By experimenting with the focus of images, users can highlight the center of a shot while blurring the rest, thereby selecting the part of the image the photographer wants to stand out.

    Staying in creative control
    For more advanced, or more adventurous photographers, the WB750 offers a full range of options designed to place more control in the user’s hands, including full manual mode. Aperture Priority and Shutter Priority settings let users experiment with shutter speeds and depth of field, so shooting fast-moving images in low light has never been easier.

    Keeping it fun
    Magic Frame further builds on the WB750’s creative suite, allowing users to express themselves through adapting photos to reflect one’s mood and personality. Frame templates include Wall Art, Old Film, Ripple, Full Moon, Old Record, Magazine, Holiday, Classic TV and more, and are incredibly simple to achieve. Just point the camera at the desired subject, fit it within the on-screen template, capture and – like magic – the frame appears.

    Intelligent Face tracking
    When the subject starts moving, it can be hard to keep the camera focused. This ceases to be a problem with Intelligent Face tracking, which automatically recognizes, follows and focuses upon a person’s face when they start to move. So, even if the photographer is trying to capture special images of friends dancing at a party, or a child taking his first unsteady steps, they’ll never miss a perfect shot.

    The New Nikon D5100: Unleash Your Creativity

    RRP:
    Body Only – £669.99 / €777
    18-55VR Kit – £779.99 / €904

    Sales start date: 21st April 2011 (TBC)

    London, UK, 5 April 2011: Nikon introduces a new D-SLR to its line-up, the D5100, which is packed with features to make shooting stills or full HD movies more exciting than ever. The D5100 will give you a new creative perspective thanks to its improved Vari-angle screen, special effects mode and full (1080p) HD Movie.

    Jordi Brinkman, Product Manager for Nikon Europe, says: “The D5100 is a great camera that allows you to express your artistic side through impressive images and movies. You can shoot with creative effects and unique angles, all at the level of superior image quality seen in the D7000!”

    Unique viewing angles
    The successor to the popular Nikon D5000, the D5100 features an improved Vari-angle LCD screen. The screen now opens horizontally for greater maneuverability, even when using a tripod. This freedom of movement adds unparalleled creativity when using Live View, allowing shooting from virtually any angle. You can also view pictures and movies in more detail on the high resolution (approximately 921k-dot), 7.5 cm (3-in.) wide-viewing angle monitor.

    The Live View function is a simple and intuitive way of taking pictures and with the D5100’s dedicated switch it is even more straight-forward to operate. When using Auto mode you don’t even need to worry about the scene you are shooting, as Scene Auto Selector chooses the most appropriate settings to give you the best image.

    Inspire your creativity
    The D5100 has a newly introduced special effects mode to shoot amazingly unique pictures and full (1080p) HD movies. The range of seven effects include selective colour, where you select up to three colours to appear in the still or movie while other areas are monochrome, and miniature effect, which makes an image appear like a view of miniature scale. You can select which special effect to shoot in and they are directly accessible via the mode dial on the top of the camera.

    Stunning HD movies
    The Nikon D5100 makes it effortless to switch between shooting stills and movies as the D-Movie button is located next to the shutter release. This position gives a more stable grip on the camera when starting or stopping filming, or switching between shooting stills and movies. You can record all the action in full (1080p) HD at 24 / 25 / 30 fps whilst using the unique range of special effects and the AF-F will ensure your subject is always in focus. When you have finished you can use the in-camera-movie editing functions and it can all be viewed on HD television.

    Nikon is also pleased to introduce an optional stereo microphone, the ME-1. Specifically designed for D-SLRs, it lets you record movie clips in high-quality stereo sound with no AF-noise.

    Superior image quality
    The D5100 makes it easy to achieve superior image quality, even in low-light conditions, with features inherited from the D7000. The DX-format 16.2 megapixel CMOS sensor, delivers rich colours and fine detail for both pictures and movies, whilst the powerful image-processing engine, EXPEED 2, maximizes the performance of the sensor for exceptional quality. Adding to this the D5100 has an expanded sensitivity range to further help capture brilliant images in challenging light conditions – the ISO ranges from 100 to 6400 and can be raised to ISO 25600 at Hi 2, for low-noise images that do not lose the details. Furthermore, there are a wide range of NIKKOR lenses which contribute to the D5100’s impressive image quality.

    Nikon’s new High Dynamic Range (HDR) function and Active D-Lighting retain the detail when there are extreme contrasts in light. HDR takes two images at varying exposures in a single release, which are combined to produce a single image with a wider dynamic range.

    Razor-sharp 11-point AutoFocus system
    The 11-point AF system offers fast and precise autofocus coverage across the frame.
    Four AF-area modes, including 3D-tracking AF, keeps your main subject in focus even if the composition changes quickly in action scenes. This can be accompanied with continuous shooting up to 4 fps to really capture fast moving subjects.

    Key features
    Vari-angle LCD monitor: View life at a unique angle with high resolution 921k dot wide-viewing angle screen
    Live View with AF modes: Live View is a straight-forward way of taking pictures and AF modes keep the subject in focus
    Special effects mode: New to the D-SLR range, effects including selective colour and miniature effect for more creative expression when taking stills or movies
    DX-format, 16.2 megapixel CMOS image sensor with EXPEED 2: Inherited from the D7000 for exceptional quality even in poor lighting conditions
    High ISO (100-6400) extendable to Hi 2 (ISO 25600 equivalent): Keeps the detail with low noise in low-light situations
    D-Movie: Full (1080p) HD movies can be taken at up to 30fps. Simple edits can be made in-camera and movies can be watched on HDTV using the HDMI connectivity
    High dynamic range (HDR): Gives detailed shots of high-contrast scenes by combining two shots taken within a single shutter release
    Active D-Lighting: Retains details in highlights and shadows for well balanced images, even if the subject is moving
    Continuous shooting at 4fps: You will not miss that all important fast-moving action shot
    Retouch menu: Gives a range of post editing effects in-camera including movie edits and image resizing
    Picture controls: Lets you set the look and mood of your images before you shoot. Choose from six settings: Standard, Vivid, Neutral, Monochrome, Portrait and Landscape
    Scene modes: Automatically adjusts camera settings, including Picture Controls and Active D-Lighting, for optimal results. Sample photos appear on the display to help select the right mode

    Nikon adds even more power to the COOLPIX performance range with two new high-end compacts

    RRP
    COOLPIX P500: £399.99 / €464.00, sales start date: 3rd March 2011
    COOLPIX P300: £299.99 / €348.00, sales start date: 17th March 2011

    Nikon UK, 9 Feb 2011 – Nikon today strengthens its COOLPIX Performance range with two new models that raise the bar for high functionality in a compact body. The COOLPIX P300 is a brand new model for the P-series, aimed at those who are passionate about photography and want to use the full capacity of a superior compact camera. The COOLPIX P500 replaces the highly-acclaimed P100 advanced bridge camera, and packs in an even more impressive zoom range.

    To ensure sharp shooting in any situation, both cameras feature a highly sensitive back illuminated CMOS image sensor, so that even in low light or extremely bright conditions, shots are recreated exactly as you experienced them.

    Sander van Velzen, Product Manager for Consumer Products at Nikon Europe comments: “Discerning photography enthusiasts will love the new P300: not only does it look good, but the newly-developed super bright f/1.8, 24mm1 wide angle zoom lens produces stunning, true-to-life images with outstanding resolution and detail. Meanwhile, the P500 has a versatility that fans of its predecessor will recognize, but offers an even bigger range, with 36x zoom from 22.5mm ultra wide-angle to 810mm2 super-telephoto coverage.”

    For complete creative control – the COOLPIX P300
    Ensuring excellent image quality and user experience, the COOLPIX P300 is a powerful compact with an incredibly bright lens that delivers beautiful results, particularly when shooting at night or in challenging lighting conditions. The specially crafted NIKKOR lens offers a fast f/1.8 aperture, starts at an ultra-wide 24mm and has 4.2x zoom. It also employs Nikon’s High Refractive lndex glass to deliver sharp images with high contrast.

    The COOLPIX P300 helps unleash the user’s photographic potential, with full manual controls offering four exposure modes: Programmed Auto (P), Shutter-priority (S), Aperture-priority (A) and Manual (M). Combined with a highly sensitive 12.2 megapixel back illuminated CMOS image sensor, this camera offers the creative freedom to capture scenes just as you see them, whether in bright daylight or atmospheric dimness.

    Also ensuring that you get the shot you want is the camera’s high-speed continuous shooting function. Users can take up to 7 continuous shots at eight frames per second; perfect for capturing moving objects or creating a montage.

    When you want to capture more than one moment, simply switch to Full (1080p) HD movie recording with stereo sound. Optical zoom and autofocus are available during recording and you can capture a photo while still filming. The P300 can film in slow or fast motion using recording speeds of up to 120fps (VGA), giving even more creative freedom.

    Images and movies can be reviewed on the large 7.5 cm (3 in.) 921k-dot LCD monitor which offers vivid colour reproduction and sharp contrast. Boasting Nikon’s Clear Color Display technology, it reduces power consumption and minimizes reflections, even in bright sunlight.

    The COOLPIX P300 will be available in black.

    High-power zoom that has it covered – the COOLPIX P500
    A superb performer with incredible range, the compact COOLPIX P500 boasts an astounding 36x zoom, a tiltable high resolution 921K dot LCD monitor and Full (1080p) HD movie recording. Whether capturing a sweeping vista or getting up close to wildlife, the camera’s ultra 22.5mm wide-angle to 810mm super-telephoto coverage will make sure you get the shot you want.

    Perfect for capturing distant objects and bringing them closer, such as in sports or wildlife photography, the 36x superzoom offers impressive capabilities. A unique side control lever also enables smooth, steady zooming throughout the long zoom range when shooting photos or movies.

    Anti-blur technology within the camera counters blurred images in seven key ways:
    • Hybrid VR (Sensor-shift and Electronic Vibration Reduction) reduces the effect of camera shake and can be set simultaneously for additional protection
    • High ISO (up to 3200) light sensitivity reduces the risk of blurred images with fast-moving subjects or in low-light
    • Motion detection compensates for camera and subject movement
    • Best Shot Selector (BSS) automatically selects the sharpest of up to 10 sequential shots
    • Night Portrait Mode combines images with varying exposure to counter blur
    • Night Landscape mode lets you shoot sharp images at low ISO
    • HDR backlight mode offers impressive tonal detail in any situation

    When filming in Full (1080p) HD with stereo sound, not only are the optical zoom and autofocus functions available, but you can also capture a photo at any time. Giving even more options, the COOLPIX P500 can film in slow or fast motion using recording speeds of up to 240fps (QVGA). What’s more, a built-in HDMI connector with HDMI-CEC support enables you to link the P500 directly to an HD-enabled TV, and view your photos and films with family and friends.

    The tiltable LCD monitor will help you discover your creative side, making it easy to take shots from above or below and immortalize scenes that are just are you remember them. Advanced exposure modes also allow control over key settings and a dedicated continuous shooting button allows quick switching from single-frame to continuous shooting.

    The COOLPIX P500 will be available in black.

    Nikon adds a stylish new trio to the COOLPIX line-up

    RRP
    S3100:£129.99 / €151.00, sales start date: 17th March 2011
    S4100: £149.99 / €174.00, sales start date: 24th Feb 2011
    S6100: £199.99 /€232.00, sales start date: 24th Feb 2011

    Nikon UK, 9 Feb 2011 – Nikon today unveils three new compact cameras to join its COOLPIX Style series. The trio consists of the S3100, the ultra-slim and stylish successor to the enormously popular S3000, the S4100 with smart touch operation, and the 16 megapixel S6100 compact shooter with 7x zoom lens.

    The COOLPIX S3100 builds on the success of the COOLPIX S3000, Europe’s best selling camera of 20101, offering an ultra-slim (18.4mm) body, greater zoom, improved screen brightness and HD (720p) movie recording.

    “These three new additions offer something for a range of tastes: the S3100 is slender but feature- packed, with HD video and an impressive zoom range; the S4100 goes one step further with its touch screen capabilities; and the S6100 offers an even greater zoom range to get you closer to the action, with more megapixels to make even better enlargements. Whichever model you choose, with the COOLPIX Style series you can be assured that you’ll have a camera to be proud of,” said Sander van Velzen, Product Manager for Consumer Products at Nikon Europe.

    Style and substance – the S3100
    Slim enough to slip into any pocket, the slender COOLPIX S3100 is perfect for capturing photos and HD movie clips in style. It comes in seven striking colours and offers a great range of smart features to make taking high quality images and capturing HD video even easier and more fun.

    Packaging up great technology with ease of use, the S3100 combines a 5x wide-angle zoom NIKKOR lens with a 14 megapixel CCD image sensor to deliver outstandingly detailed shots that look stunning even when enlarged. For memories that demand more than an image, a dedicated movie-record button makes it easy to instantly switch to filming the action.

    Housing Nikon’s Smart Portrait system, the S3100 also ensures perfect photos even from the most camera-shy subjects, with features like Smile Timer, Blink Proof and Skin Softening to ensure everyone looks their best. Once you have the shot you want, getting creative with it could not be simpler as the camera’s range of easy-to-apply filter effects lets you edit images in-camera, without needing a computer.

    The COOLPIX S3100 comes in seven colours: purple, red, black, blue, pink, citrus yellow and silver.

    A smart touch – the S4100
    For those who want the latest technology and style, this clever 14 megapixel camera comes in five appealing colours, including red and bronze, has an intuitive 7.5 cm (3 in.) high resolution 460K dot touch control LCD screen, and is slim enough to be pocket-friendly and taken anywhere.

    By simply touching the screen you can scroll through your pictures, or use the Touch Shutter to take a picture – the camera will automatically set the correct focus and exposure for the touched item. Whenever the mood takes you, you can also switch to filming in high-definition (720p) using the dedicated movie-record button.

    The COOLPIX S4100’s wide angle 5x zoom NIKKOR lens offers consistently sharp results and four advanced blur-reduction functions to minimise the effects of subject movement, low light and camera shake. Images can also be edited in-camera effortlessly, with easy-to-use filter effects such as Selective Colour, which converts your image to monochrome then adds a splash of colour to an area of your choice, and Cross Screen, that adds a starry effect to bright objects.

    The COOLPIX S4100 comes in three colours: red, black, purple.

    Get even closer to the action – the S6100
    Bringing with it even more cutting edge technology, the stylish S6100 is ideal for those who want advanced features in a slim body. It packs a wide-angle 7x zoom NIKKOR lens and a 16 megapixel image sensor that delivers photos so pin-sharp that even poster-sized enlargements look great. The 7.5 cm (3 in.) high resolution 460k dot touch screen enables intuitive operation, with fingertip control over shooting and playback, and HD movie recording at the touch of a button.

    Beautifully detailed shots are assured thanks to four different anti-blur functions that automatically minimize the effects of camera shake, subject movement or low light. Lens-shift Vibration Reduction is just one of the advanced technologies that ensures superior results, so that even if you’re shooting moving subjects at full zoom, the COOLPIX S6100 will deliver clear, crisp pictures every time.

    The COOLPIX S6100 comes in five colours: violet, black, red, pink and silver.

Whichever you choose, you can be assured that all of these cameras provide the quality that Nikon is known for to help produce the best images as easily as possible” comments Sander van Velzen, Product Manager for Consumer Products at Nikon Europe.

    Stylishly simple: the COOLPIX S2500
    The stylish COOLPIX S2500 offers impressive value for such a top quality camera. Its high-design, slim (20mm) aluminum body houses an impressive range of features, making it fun and effortless to take pictures anytime, anywhere.

    The S2500’s precision NIKKOR 4x wide-angle zoom lens and 12 megapixel image sensor combine to deliver incredibly detailed images that make superb poster-size enlargements. To make sure you get the best pictures of even the most camera-shy subjects, Nikon’s Smart Portrait system includes features such as Smile Timer, Blink Proof and Skin Softening, and its large 6.7 cm (2.7 in.) LCD monitor makes it easy to preview and review your photos.

    As well as being easy to carry, it is also simple to use, with several automatic functions for effortless shooting. Easy Auto mode optimizes all camera settings according to the light you are shooting in, while Scene Auto Selector selects the optimum Scene mode for popular photographic situations. Whether you are on the beach, the slopes or out on the town, the camera’s wide range of scene modes will automatically optimize settings for up to 17 popular photographic styles, effects and locations. Subject Tracking Auto-Focus (AF) will keep the camera focused on a selected subject, even if it is moving around. Meanwhile, built-in anti-blur technology automatically counters blurred pictures in four different ways.

    The COOLPIX S2500 is available in four colours: red, pink, black and silver.

    A superb first camera for anyone just starting out in photography, the COOLPIX L23 makes it simple for every member of the family to take great pictures.

    A host of automatic technology makes this camera perfect for effortless photography. Wherever you are and whatever you want to shoot, Easy Auto Mode optimizes all camera settings depending on

    what light you are in, ensuring your images are impressive. Built-in electronic Vibration Reduction and Motion Detection avoids camera shake and, along with the 10.1 megapixel resolution CCD image sensor, guarantees outstanding detailed images worthy of being turned into stunning enlargements. The Smart Portrait System houses features such as Smile Timer and Skin Softening, to ensure perfect portraits.

    The L23’s 5x wide-angle zoom lens lets you capture everything from sharp close-ups to stunning group photos, and a large, 6.7 cm (2.7 in.) LCD monitor enables you to review pictures with ease. Hassle-free operation is ensured with large buttons and dedicated Shooting and Playback modes. The camera takes regular AA batteries, making it easy to power and ideal for taking anywhere.

    The COOLPIX L23 is available in five colours: blue, red, black, pink and silver.

    An impressive all-rounder: the COOLPIX L120
    With a super-zoom lens and HD (720p) movie recording, the COOLPIX L120 offers great technology that is easy to use, to make sure you reliably capture all those important moments.

    The wide angle 21x zoom NIKKOR lens gives outstanding precision and sharp resolution, with a range from 25mm wide-angle to 525mm super-telephoto coverage1. A unique side control lever also enables smooth, steady zooming throughout the long zoom range when shooting photos or movies. A 14.1 megapixel CCD image sensor and four different automatic anti-blur functions ensure sharp images every time, whatever distance you are shooting from.

    With a dedicated movie-record button, the L120 gives you the freedom to switch easily between capturing beautiful images or crisp HD (720p) movies in stereo sound. Optical zoom with autofocus function is available during recording, and photos and movies can be conveniently viewed on the large 7.5 cm (3 inch) 921k-dot high-resolution LCD monitor. Also featured is a built-in HDMI mini connector, so you can connect your camera to a high definition HD television and view your movies at home with family and friends.

    All this is powered by convenient AA batteries so you don’t have to worry about running out of power – whether you’re at home or travelling abroad.
