On broken pipes and leaked info

Damian Koh | Aug 07, 2006

While Nikon has kept a tight leash on the leakage of its upcoming 10.2-megapixel dSLR, the company is still no match for enthusiasts who seem to be able to get their hands on just about anything. Rumors have been circulating on the Web and Gizmodo ran a piece with pictures of the new Nikon leaked from a French forum.

If the pictures are authentic, the rumored dSLR is a D80 with a few extra buttons and some styling differences. Pity we can't read French, otherwise we'd be able to provide you with more juicy details.

While everyone's awaiting the arrival of Nikon's new shooter, an anonymous tipster also sent blog site I4U some pictures of an as-yet-to-be-announced Sony Cyber-shot. The camera in question is a T50 which looks like a cross between the latest T10 and the touchscreen N1. According to the tipster, the T50 should be released in October in silver, red and black.

Cyber-shot, now in four colors

Damian Koh | Aug 02, 2006

Hey, apparently Sony didn't forget its math. The company has announced the "real" successor to the Cyber-shot T9--the Cyber-shot, er, T10. Except for an increase in resolution to 7.2 megapixels and a maximum sensitivity of ISO 1,000, everything else remains. That aside, this Cyber-shot will also be available in pink and white shades, a good eye relief from the usual black and silver.

In addition to the T10, Sony also unveiled the company's latest GPS unit (GPS-CS1) which is capable of recording the location and time of a picture from a satellite onto its internal memory. The GPS-CS1 weighs 55g (without battery) and is rated for 14 hours of battery life when used with Ni-MH rechargeable cells.

Good news is the GPS unit is compatible with the latest Cyber-shots, Handycam camcorders and the Alpha 100. According to Sony, the Cyber-shot T10 is slated to hit local stores end August, while the GPS-CS1 will be available from this month onwards.
