LUMIX DMC-FX580/FX550

noreply@blogger.com (Gadget Techno) — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 14:43:00 +0700

Advanced Hybrid Control System

The DMC-FX580(FX550) incorporates a 3.0-inch large touch-screen interface to achieve amazing ease in both shooting and playing back the images. LUMIX proposes a hybrid operation system combining the touch-screen interface and the conventional operation system with cursor key for more quick and intuitive control, by taking advantage of both operation systems. Basic menu settings can be directly controlled by the cursor key, and others extensive ones are finely adjusted by touch or by moving a slider on the screen with the finger or an included stylus-pen. The DMC-FX580(FX550)’s touch-screen operation brings new enjoyment to the digital photography.

Touch AF/AE Tracking

Touch AF/AE
With the DMC-FX580(FX550), auto focus and exposure can be set at the desired part of the frame by simply touching the subject at that part to activate the AF/AE. This eliminates the need to make adjustments after pressing the shutter halfway, allowing you to set the desired composition and appropriate exposure easily and accurately. This is also helpful when you would like to designate the subject out of other objects in the frame, to set best appropriate focus and exposure right on it.

AF/AE Tracking
Once the AF/AE subject is selected by touch control, it continues to track the subject even if it moves. This is especially helpful for catching active children or pets. It also conveniently tracks the subject when the person taking the photo is riding on a moving object. And it minimizes the shutter time lag for spur-of-the-moment shots.

Touch AF/AE Tracking Adds to the Intuitive Ease of the iA Mode

The iA (Intelligent Auto) Mode of the DMC-FX580(FX550) has a feature that is not offered on any other LUMIX model. Touch AF/AE Tracking let you set auto focusing and auto exposure, and then track a moving subject by simply touching it on the screen.
New levels of ease and flexibility combine with highly accurate auto focusing and auto exposure to make the iA (Intelligent Auto) Mode even simpler to use.

Easy Manual Operation-A/S/M Mode
The aperture, shutter speed, and exposure compensation can be adjusted intuitively and easily by touching the screen or moving the slider, thus achieving an unprecedented level of operating ease. The touch-screen ushers in a new style of manual operation.

Aperture-Priority AE

Shutter-Priority AE

Finely Detailde White Balance Setting

Intuitive touch-screen operation makes white balance adjustment more flexible and precise. The 2-axis adjustment feature gives you a finer white balance adjustment for Auto, Daylight, Cloudy, Shade, or Halogen conditions. It can also be used when adjusting the Color Temperature Setting or White Set function. You can adjust with a reference to the horizontal axis for amber to blue and the vertical axis for green to magenta.*
The Color Temperature Setting provides more flexible, more precise adjustment than conventional white balance settings, with compensation from 2,500 K to 10,000 K in 100 K steps.

*White balance adjustment is not possible in some modes.

Quick Menu

Frequently used functions can be quickly retrieved and easily switched by using the Q.MENU button. Function names are also displayed in text form so they are easy for anyone to understand and use. The DMC-FX580(FX550) lets you make settings faster and more intuitively thanks to the hybrid control of the touch-screen and cursor operation.

* During playback, this button becomes the Delete button.

Title Edit
The Title Edit function in playback mode lets you edit the titles of any photos you want. Inputting and editing the text is astonishingly smooth and quick, thanks to the touch-screen interface. Two of the Scene Modes, Baby Mode and Pet Mode, let you enter the name and date of the birth of your subject in advance. The title name and the age based on the input birth date are displayed during playback, and can also be printed on photos.

Advance GUI for Touch-Screen

The icons and buttons of the DMC-FX580(FX550) were redesigned with the addition of the touch-screen.

Main Advanced Points
1. The mode can be selected, and the screen can be scrolled by touch operation.
2. Icons are large and easy to use.
3. The operating screen for each mode can be controlled by touch operation.

Recognizing that audio is important to the overall entertainment experience, Panasonic’s three 2009 Blu-ray Disc players feature a high definition audio decoder (Dolby® Digital Plus, Dolby® TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio Essential) to take advantage of the exceptionally high quality 7.1 channel surround sound now integrated in Blu-ray Discs. The DMP-BD70V distinguishes itself as the world’s first dual deck VHS-Blu-ray player, providing the consumer with a video product that features multi-format playback allowing the user to play VHS, CD, DVD and 1080p high definition Blu-ray Discs. The BD70V allows for premium 1080p up-conversion for all video formats.

VIERA CAST technology, introduced in Panasonic’s PZ850 2008 VIERA Plasma, is now available in Panasonic’s 2009 Blu-ray players. The internet enabled technology lets the consumer access the internet without the need of either an external box or a PC and enjoy the entertainment value provided by such targeted sites as Amazon VOD, with an extensive library of streamed titles, YouTube™, Google’s Picasa™ Web Album , Bloomberg and a weather channel. The DMP-BD60, DMP-BD80 and DMP-BD70V include an SD Memory card slot and USB slot, making it easy for the consumer to view and share both digital still images and HD video recorded with an HD camcorder in the AVCHD format.

“With the expansion of the unique VIERA Cast functionality and the introduction of the industry’s first dual VHS-Blu-ray deck, Panasonic’s 2009 line cements our position as technology leaders and places Panasonic in the forefront of the Blu-ray arena,” said Richard Simone, Director, Panasonic, the Entertainment Group. “Panasonic was the first company to produce a Blu-ray player with Bonus View and the first to incorporate BD Live functionality into a stand alone player. Now we are the first to bring to market a dual VHS-Blu ray player. When coupled with a Panasonic HDTV, Blu-ray gives the consumer the essential 1080p high definition experience.”

In order to produce the ultimate picture quality, Panasonic’s Blu-ray players employ high precision 4:4:4 signal technology, which working in tandem with PHL Reference Chroma Processor Plus processes each pixel of the Blu-ray Disc video signal in the horizontal direction, to compliment vertical direction processing. P4HD (Pixel Precision Progressive Processing for HD) is another technology that contributes to the superior picture quality of the Blu-ray players. P4HD processes more than 15 billion pixels per second and applies the optimal processing to every pixel. Panasonic’s Blu-ray players further utilize 16-level motion detection to categorize the image motion of each pixel into one of 16 levels; diagonal processing to detect diagonals and correct the pixels accordingly; 1080p up-conversion to up-convert content recorded in the 480i/p or 720p format to 1080p. The Blu-ray players also provide 1080/24p output, thereby reproducing cinema images from a Blu-ray Disc and DVD in their original 24p form with no need for conversion. This allows the user to enjoy cinema images in the same format used in cinema with a 1080/24p compatible TV.

Complimenting the HD audio codecs the three Blu-ray players feature 96kHz surround re-master, a function that enhances the sound quality of CDs and other sources, and even improves the quality of the multi-channel audio data on Blu-ray Discs and DVDs. The DMP-BD80 further enhances the audio experience with 7.1 channel analog out to produce true 7.1 surround sound, thereby affording the consumer a home theater environment that rivals the movie theater. The BD80 also includes a playback information window that can be used to display detailed image information while a movie is playing.
In order to obtain a reduction in power consumption the 2009 Blu-ray players use Auto Power Stand-By, a function that automatically turns off the player when you return to TV operation using the VIERA Link menu. In addition, the Stand-by Power Save automatically turns off the player’s Quick Start function. When VIERA is turned on, Quick Start also turns on. In addition, the development of the UniPhier® single chip LSI makes it possible to pack an entire video signal processing circuit onto a single chip. This helps lower power consumption, reduces the number of parts needed and allows for a more compact design. The BD60 consumes 16% less power in standby mode than last year’s model, the DMP-BD35.

iPhone OS 3.0

noreply@blogger.com (Gadget Techno) — Sun, 5 Apr 2009 19:13:00 +0700

On March 17, Apple presented the blueprint for iPhone OS 3.0, the next version of the world’s most advanced mobile platform. In addition to previewing its innovative features, Apple gave members of the iPhone Developer Program immediate access to the iPhone OS 3.0 software beta and an updated Software Development Kit (SDK) with over 1,000 completely new APIs.

Advance preview of 100 new features.

For iPhone owners, it just keeps getting better. When iPhone OS 3.0 arrives this summer, it will introduce over 100 new features, including the ability to:

Search your iPhone
Cut, copy, and paste
Send photos, contacts, audio files, and location via MMS* (* MMS messaging is available only on iPhone 3G; fees may apply. MMS may not be available in all areas.)
Read and compose email and text messages in landscape

1,000 new APIs for developers.

With the new SDK, members of the iPhone Developer Program can build applications that do even more. Developers will have the tools to enable in-app purchases — like subscriptions, additional game levels, and new content. They can also create apps that connect peer to peer via Bluetooth, communicate with hardware accessories, and use the Apple Push Notification service to provide alerts.

Learn more about the iPhone SDK for iPhone OS 3.0 beta.

Casio Exilim Pro EX-F1

noreply@blogger.com (Gadget Techno) — Sun, 5 Apr 2009 19:09:00 +0700

When you're charging digital SLR prices for a compact camera, you'd better have a trick up your sleeve...

Luckily, Casio has 1200 of them -- that's how many frames its new EX-F1 can shoot every second, at top speed. This creates ultra-slo-mo movies that turn everyday sights like falling water into eye-popping, mind-bending visuals, albeit at low resolution (336x96-pixels).

It can rattle off full fat 6MP snaps at a memory card-punishing 60fps, and even night time scarcely slows the Casio down, with an epilepsy-inducing stroble flash that fires seven times a second. Take a time out to look at the images, and you'll find them lively and colourful, if not overly detailed.

Unlike an SLR, you can't swap the heavy, built-in 12x optical zoom lens but as it's stabilised, sharp and virtually free from distortion, it's hard to see why you'd want to (unless sluggish zooming gets on your nerves). In fact, many SLR owners will be enviously eyeing the F1's simple manual settings, intuitive click-wheel control and -- especially -- Connery-smooth full HD movie mode that can output punchy 1080i movies via HDMI to your flatscreen TV.

It's the world's fastest consumer camera, it's easy to use and it's a decent HD movie camera too -- suddenly it doesn't seem so expensive...

Sony A350 SLR review

noreply@blogger.com (Gadget Techno) — Sun, 5 Apr 2009 19:03:00 +0700

A budget busting SLR with top notch camera tech

Sony's powerful A350 has one of the most affordable price tags in the SLR parade.

There's an impressive 14.4 sensor, but as everyone knows it's not size, but what you do with it that counts. So you get in-camera SteadyShot system to increase your chances of sharp shots, a tilting 2.7-inch LCD for awkward peering-over-tall person shots and easy-to-use Live View.

For low-light shooting you can quickly set sensitivity up to a mammoth 3200, but over ISO 400 images can be soft and noisy. Although the Sony A350 can be bulky to control, at a lower ISO, it produces cracking images, accurately exposed with great detail.

It's a winner and leaves other porky SLRs from the veterans Canon and Nikon, sulk in the over-priced shade.

SkipScreen

noreply@blogger.com (Gadget Techno) — Sun, 5 Apr 2009 18:57:00 +0700

SkipScreen Firefox plugin bypasses RapidShare delays giving you faster downloads

Its not just RapidShare download service delays that this wonderful, magical Firefox plugin can bypass, SkipScreen also works for other major file sharing sites like Mediafire, zShare Megaupload, DespoitFiles, Divshare, and LinkBucks, and we believe more are on the way. No, this plugin doesn't enable your download to be faster, however it does enable you to get access to the file you need and start downloading faster, this sometimes can take a pretty long time. Its always so annoying when you want to download something from any of these sites that once you click on a file's download link, you get taken through ads, human authentication, etc, that by the time you actually get to the 'real' download page, its taken minutes - that's not right.

With SkipScreen, click on a file download link and SkipScreen will take care of things on its own, which means you can go back to doing what you were doing elsewhere and all you have to click on is the save file dialog box once it appears. No more waiting 20 seconds then click here and there, to find later on that you've missed the download time, skip all that!…

The Latest Nikon

noreply@blogger.com (Gadget Techno) — Sun, 5 Apr 2009 18:44:00 +0700

NIKON D300

For decades,Canon and Nikon have been tussling over market share like Kate Moss and Pete Doherty over a rolled-up tenner.

Forget Liverpool/Everton or Jedi/Sith, if you want to see genuine, no-holds-barred rivalry, look no further than Canon and Nikon.

The latest salvo in their never-ending war is Nikon's D300 digital SLR, a camera so stuffed with features that slow readers might not even finish the instruction manual before its (inevitable) replacement arrives. At its heart is a self-cleaning CMOS sensor that can snatch up to six razor-sharp, retina-searingly colourful 12.3MP snaps every second.

As you'd expect from a semi-pro camera, dozens of dedicated buttons control a million and one manual adjustments. But there are also user-friendly touches, such as a stunning 3-inch screen that has six times as many pixels as an iPhone and allows useful (if time-consuming) Live View framing.

The D300 also has the excellent D-Lighting system found on Nikon compacts,which automatically compensates for shadows and highlights so you don't get annoying 'burnt out' white patches. Our favourite addition, though, is 3D tracking autofocus, which keeps moving subjects in focus, however fast or erratically they're shifting -- and it really works.

Add HDMI output for High Def TV playback, bomb-proof build quality (but with weight to match) and image quality (especially in low light) that's second to none, and Nikon has delivered a real stunner. The only fly in the ointment is, naturally, Canon, whose rival 40D SLR has a similar feature list -- albeit without the amazing autofocus, HDMI, D-Lighting or quite as many megapixels - for a tempting £400 less. Don't expect this war to be over any time soon.
