The Canon Powershot A70 IS is a great digital camera at a very low price. Very few digital cameras offer the same combination of features, image size and quality at such a low price. For anyone looking for a portable digital camera at a great price, the Canon Powershot A70 IS is the perfect digital camera to choose.
Here's the rundown on the Canon Powershot A70 IS's features.
Resolution: 7.1 megapixels
Optical zoom: 6x
LCD size: 2.5″
Lens maximum aperture: F2.8-F4.8
Focal length (35mm equivalent): 35-210mm
Weight: 210g
Size: 3.8 x 2.6 x 1.6 in
What stands out about the Canon Powershot A70 IS? First, the image size is its strongest attribute. The megapixel wars between digital camera manufacturers seem to have slowed somewhat and there's no longer the push to put out new digital cameras with higher and higher resolutions. That said, the Canon Powershot A70 IS is on the high end of what is available. 7.1 megapixels is resolution enough to print photo-quality 8×10 prints, fulfilling the desires of most hobbyist owners.
The Canon Powershot A70 IS also fits a fairly large optical zoom into a small camera body. This is important for many owners who use their digital cameras to shoot sporting events or other activities that require getting close to the action. A maximum focal length of 200mm on the Canon Powershot A70 IS isn't the biggest focal length on digital cameras today, but it's enough to get any photographer into the action.
Another impressive feature the Canon Powershot A70 IS offers is Canon's Image Stabilization. This is an internal function within the digital camera that compensates for shaky hands or other problems that may result in a blurred photograph, especially at low light. Most gimmicks by digital camera makers have little or no real effect, but image stabilization is one that actually works. This means photographers can take photos at lower light conditions without a tripod with the Canon Powershot A70 IS and still have some great shots turn out. It doesn't solve every problem or compensate for the shakiest of hands, but image stabilization on the Canon Powershot A70 IS helps.
What on the Canon Powershot A70 IS disappoints? The image quality is not the best on the market, but it is in-line with other consumer cameras. Fitting such a large resolution into such a small body results in noticeable levels of digital noise in each image, but the Canon Powershot A70 IS is certainly not alone in this quality and does a better job than many other cameras of keeping it in control. The Canon Powershot A70 IS also only comes with a 16mb Secure Digital memory card out of the box, meaning everyone will need to buy a higher-capacity card. It's just not enough storage.
But these negatives outweigh the positives for this digital camera. The Canon Powershot A70 IS is a great camera at a great price. Expect to pay about $250-$300 for this digital camera.

Samsung has announced a new range of NX lenses for the Samsung NX10 interchangeable lens camera. In addition to its Pancake, Standard Zoom and Tele Zoom lenses, Samsung is adding five more, for a total of 8 lenses.
The new NX lenses include a non-OIS 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 standard zoom lens to be released in the first half of 2010, a compact 20-50mm F3.5-5.6 zoom lens and a wide pancake 20mm F2.8 lens for release in the second half of 2010, and two more lenses: an image-stabilized 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 OIS super zoom lens and a 60mm F2.8 macro lens.
The NX10 camera boasts a compact, sleek and lightweight design by replacing the mirror box and optical viewfinder found in traditional SLR cameras with an electronic viewfinder. The aim is to combine the performance and quality of an SLR with the convenience and portability of a point and shoot.
[Site: Samsung NX Cameras]
Samsung Digital Imaging has provided the author of this review with the mentioned digital imaging device.
Mirrorless interchangeable lens camera Samsung NX10
Finally, the hero in the rumor from 2009 is being released. It’s the NX10 a new concept lens interchangeable camera from Samsung.
The NX10 has both advantages of hardware of DSLRs and convenient use of compact digital cameras.
It will be released with the NX lenses such as 18-55mm F3.5-5.6, 50-200mm F4-5.6, and 30mm pancake lens and has 123×87×39.8mm of size and 353g of weight. 23.4×15.6mm size APC-S type CMOS is installed in the camera with 14.6M pixels. The reason I introduce this with Samsung’s own lenses is that it supports ‘Contrast AF’.
Unlike most of the DSLR cameras has phase based AF, this product has Contrast AF which sets focus by using the difference of contrast, so it has live view with 100% of visibility and VGA level Electronic Viewfinder. Moreover, unlike the common sense ‘Contrast AF is slower than phase based AF, because the body and lens are communicated’, the NX10 allows fast focusing and high speed continuous shots, and with the NX lens having OIS, more vivid pictures without hand-blur can be taken.
On the left and right side of the NX10, memory slot for up to 4GB of SD card and 8GB of SDHC card, DC IN port, Shutter release port, HDMI, USB/AV OUT port are located.
The BP1310 Li-Ion battery taking 150 minutes to be fully charged allows taking 400 pictures and recording 130 min of videos. By using a power saving mode appropriately, more time can be secured, but like we take an additional memory, an additional memory would be better. If you use a built-in flash, it’s needed more.
The mode dial of the NX10 is similar to a mode dial of DSLR cameras. Program mode P, aperture A, shutter S, and manual M are located. These modes allow users to take their own pictures and by their preference, sometimes there are frequently used mode and setting values.
Night Scenery, Portrait, Smart Auto, and Video for 720p HD can be selected by this mode dial and on the upper side, dial for adjustment and shutter button are located. On the left, flash button and built-in speaker are located and on the center, Hot shoe for an external flash is located.
The NX10 has 640×480 610K pixels 3” (7.6cm) AMOLED for better outdoor visibility and 920K EVF with the same resolution makes the camera mirrorless and look like a DSLR, and it also helps get more visibility under the daylight. For your reference, eye sensor is located on the right below for automatic screen change when using the viewfinder.
On the left upper side from the AMOLED, menu button and EVF eye sight adjustment dial are located. Through the dial, focus of eyes and viewfinder can be adjusted and on the right side, DISP and Fn buttons are located. If you don’t know what you see while setting things, please push the DISP button. Then you will see detailed explanation of the menu.
Under the Fn button, direction key (5 way) is located and AF/MF which is a selection among Single, continuous auto focus, and manual focus, White Balance, ISO from 100 to 3200, Metering among spot, center weighted, and multi can be made. Playback and delete button are located. The delete button can load Picture Wizard function to adjust color, saturation, sharpness, and contrast and 3 different settings can be saved allowing more various color shootings.
I felt more convenience in arrangement of exposure buttons and function setting like AEL, exposure correction, and green button while using the NX10 than other DSLRs. Exposure is one of the most important components in shooting. Frequently used exposure correction button and AEL button play an important role. Especially, after pushing AEL button, the exposure value will be maintained until the next shooting, so for different angle shooting, the same exposure can conveniently be applied and through other settings, focus lock or both lock can be set.
While changing modes and setting values, sometimes we miss something. Especially, in exposure correction and selection AF, we need to change the location of focus a lot by using the dial, but we used to forget to change it and take it with the previous value. On the upper side of the NX10, the green button initializes frequently used settings such as exposure correction, focus, program shife, detailed setting of Picture Wizard, and micro adjustment of white balance by one click, so it’s very convenient and easy to use, because it’s located right behind the shutter and dial.
Pushing DISP button, various information is displayed on the screen. Especially, looking at various setting information, it looks like a compact digital camera. Even if you get accustomed to those button I explained, it’s very important to check the current status.
They are the screens of Program P, Aperture A, Shutter S, and M manual mode. Basically, these 4 modes are controlled by the combination of dial and exposure correction button. For example, in A mode, aperture value is adjusted by dial, and while holding the exposure correction button, exposure value is adjusted. It’s convenient to adjust it in the AMOLED. For example, blub exposure for Night Scenery, Fireworks, and celestial body can be set by rotating dial once more from shutter speed 30 sec in manual mode.
From these 4 modes, by pushing Fn button, 7 settings are possible such as photo size, quality, AF, flash, color space, Smart Range, and OIS (Only OIS lens).
I don’t think additional explanation is always good in the world a lot of camera clubs out there. I think it’s more important to understand the specification and feature of the lens, take your own shots even in inclement weather conditions, and enjoy the results..
Samsung has investigated what customers want in the compact digital camera market and through their convenient functions, they’ve been doing great with normal users. Let’s take a look at the convenient modes on the powerful hardware of the NX10.
Convenient modes representing Samsung cameras such as ‘Night’, ‘Portrait’, ‘Landscape’, ‘Scene’, and ‘Smart Auto’ have been strongly supported by customers. Especially, ‘Portrait’, ‘Scene’, and ‘Smart Auto’ would be even more convenient and cool, because various lenses can be mounted. These modes can basically take shots with changing exposure according to the F value of lenses. The screen next to each mode can be edited by pushing Fn button and different by each mode. For example, in ‘Portrait’ mode, ‘Face Detection AF’ and ‘Self Guide AF’ up to 10 faces, in ‘Scene mode’, 9 scene modes, and in ‘Smart auto’, 16 scenes are automatically recognized.
The NX10 can take 720p HD video for 25 min. And it also supports 640 or 320 resolution video recording for web site. Program (P) setting aperture automatically and Aperture (A) which users set aperture can be set. With them, a fader effect which gets darker or brighter at the beginning or ending can be applied.
This camera has 3 shooting menus, normal setting menu, and 1 user setting menu.
The NX10 supports various images like as 3:2 size 4592 X 3056 of 14M to 1929 X 1280 of 2M and 16:9 size 4592 X 2584 of 12M to1920 X 1080 of 2M and 4592 X 3056 RAW images. 9 White balance options and up to ISO 3200 from 100 are supported. When it comes to Color Space, it needs more explanation. When printing out images by using cameras or printers, the range of color reproduction is different and it is called Color Space. Therefore, in order to match colors, there are some standards. For the color reproduction in LCD monitor, printer, and Samsung RAW converter 3, sRGB is good enough. For your information, the file extension of the RAW is SRW and when taking shots in Adobe RGB mode, ‘-‘ will be put on the front of the file name.
Shooting 2 menu like managing light has a lot of AF mode settings by using 5 way direction key. Especially, because AF area and metering determine the location of focus and the area, it affects a lot on the color feeling. When it comes to a flash as an auxiliary light, there are 1st curtain sync, and 2nd curtain sync. It selects when the flash goes off such as when the shutter is opening or closing.
Above images were taken in continuous shooting. The NX10 takes 3 shots per sec and in Burst mode, 30 shots per sec in 1472×976 resolution. Bracket taking 3 consecutive shots with +- level of different Exposure, White balance, and Picture Wizard is supported.
Shooting 3 menu is a Bracketing menu. Generally, bracketing takes different shots with +- exposure and blue and amber or magenta and green among 4 colors such as Green, Amber, magenta, and Blue. When taking outdoor shots or making another feeling from the same picture, it’s useful. Picture Wizard BKT takes 3 consecutive shots with 3 different user settings. I’d like to recommend using Smart Range for normal users and it automatically corrects loss due to the difference in the shading of the picture. ISO 100 can’t be selected if using this, but by pushing Fn button, it can be changed.
User setting has convenience of controls. When it comes to exposure compensation which is the most frequently used function in the NX10, it can be set to 1/3 or 1/2 drop when rotating a dial once. It’s better to set high sensitivity and long time noise reduction. Display setting coming out by DISP button can be selected from icon, guideline, and histogram.
The most convenient function of the user setting is AEL and depth preview button. Especially, for AEL, exposure, focus, or both can be set or and depth preview button is more convenient if selecting one touch White balance.
When it comes to normal setting, Setting 1 and 2 have basic settings such as format, initialization, and language. However, Setting 3 has features of the NX10. It has a sensor cleaning function which cleans the APS-C CMOS sensor. Ultra sonic type sensor cleaning can be used from the menu and automatic cleaning is also possible when booting. Through Samsung Anynet+, various products from Samsung can be connected together and HDMI output is also available.
I liked the firmware update the most. Previously, film cameras became luxurious items, but in DSLR generation, the firmware update is the best way to make it more perfect in various environments. For your information, the firmware update of the NX10 is separately provided for the body firmware and lens firmware.
Images seeing from AMOLED are great in the NX10. They are even better than a monitor. The images can be sorted by file, date(day), and week.
I remember that I talked about the possibility of domestic DSLR cameras with camera manias. There were optimists and pessimists, but there was no made in Korea at that time.
The NX10 is the first lens interchangeable type camera not just from Samsung, but from Korea having its own lens mount. This means a lot, but comparing the size of the APS-C CMOS with DSLR cameras, the weight is much different.
The images by the NX10 are great and beautiful. For those who want to change their camera to a DSLR from a compact camera or have a DSLR inferior to the NX10, please remember this camera, because this is the camera in your life, not just a camera for certain time.

The first leg of the 2010 Champions League R16 clash between European football giants, Manchester United and AC Milan, was probably the most entertaining game in the competition to this point. The two clubs went toe to toe for most of their clash until the game was cracked open by two Wayne Rooney's goals that promptly sealed the victory for the visitor. AC Milan will look to repay the Premier League top club in kind, when the team visits Old Trafford for the second leg of their Round of 16 clash. In this article, I will discuss the 2010 Champions League contest between Manchester United & AC Milan and offer my predictions on which team will advance to the last eight.
Manchester United has been the most popular and successful professional football club in the world for quite some time now. Yet, Manchester United's Champions League record leaves a lot to be desired. While AC Milan has won seven UEFA League titles and finished runner-up four times, United has only managed three victories and a boatload of early exits. Despite an away victory and home field advantage, one should still be wary of Manchester United's chances of advancing to the next round. Fans of the Red Devils have seen their favorite team suffered from many close calls and heartbreaks in the Champions League over the years. Both the team and its fans won't allow an ounce of complacency in their preparations for the decisive tie.
The two clubs match up well in most aspects of football. The key difference between Manchester United and AC Milan is the quality of their forwards. The Red Devils is stacked with highly experienced strikers such as Wayne Rooney, who scored 2 goals in the first leg, and Michael Owen. The gap in quality was apparent in their previous encounter, and is likely to remain a big advantage for United when the two teams meet at Old Trafford.
=>CONTINUE ON PAGE 2
Like most of the 2010 Champions League contests, form will be the ultimate indicator of outcome. Manchester United has enjoyed far more success coming into this game than its Italian counterpart. Despite some early hiccups, United is on the hunt once again for another domestic title. AC Milan is also in good form, vigorously contending for the Serie A championship. However, momentum seems to be on United's side. With overwhelming odds stacked against the visitor side, it appears highly unlikely that the Italian legendary club would be able to turn the tide and win convincingly to advance to the last eight.
My predictions for Manchester United vs. AC Milan (2010 Champions League Round of 16): The game ends in a tie with the Red Devils advancing to the last eight.

Canon has announced that the long awaited, video-related firmware for its EOS 5D Mark II will be available from mid-March. Firmware version 2.0.3 enables full 1080p HD video recording at 24, 25 and 29.97fps to match the PAL and NTSC broadcast standards. It also adds a new histogram display while shooting movies and allows users to manually control sound recording levels. Audio sampling frequency has also been increased to match broadcast material standards.
Press Release:
London, 2nd March 2010 – Canon today pre-announces the release of a firmware update for the multiple award-winning EOS 5D Mark II. Originally announced in late 2009, the update adds 24* and 25 frames per second (fps) recording to the camera’s EOS MOVIE video function, and will be available as a free download from the middle of March.
Developed following feedback from photographers and cinematographers, Firmware 2.0.3 further enhances the EOS 5D Mark II’s excellent video performance. The addition of new frame rates expands the camera’s video potential, providing filmmakers with the ability to shoot 1080p Full HD footage at 24fps (actual 23.976fps) – the optimum frame rate for cinematic video. 25fps support at both 1920×1080 and 640×480 resolutions will allow users to film at the frame rate required for the PAL broadcast standard, while the new firmware will also change the 30fps option to the NTSC video standard of 29.97fps.
A new histogram display for shooting movies in manual exposure, shutter-priority (Tv) and aperture-priority (Av) have been added, and exposure modes will also be available in movie mode. Improved audio functionality will allow users to set sound record levels manually using a sound-level meter displayed on the LCD screen. The audio sampling frequency has also been increased from 44.1KHz to 48KHz, providing the optimum audio signal typically required for professional or broadcast material.
With its full frame CMOS sensor and compatibility with Canon’s wide range of premium lenses, the EOS 5D Mark II is already recognised for its outstanding HD video performance. Launched in September 2008, the camera immediately created a wide range of new possibilities for photographers and videographers, and the addition of new frame rates and manual audio levels extends those possibilities even further – allowing movie makers to shoot stunning movies to suit practically any creative purpose.
Extreme sports photographer Richard Walch was one of the first to be given the chance to use the newly updated EOS 5D Mark II to shoot the snowboarding movie “I Love My Friends”. Commenting on the EOS 5D Mark II’s video performance, Richard said: “The addition of the new frame rates opens up a whole new range of possibilities. If you’re a cinematographer, independent film maker or just enthusiastic about making your own movies, get out there and give it a try”.
“I Love My Friends” shot by Richard Walch on the EOS 5D Mark II with the new firmware includes a look behind the scenes video is available to view at http://www.canon-europe.com/eos5dmarkII.
The firmware will be available to download from mid-March from the Canon website http://www.canon.com/eos-d/
*Actual frame rate: 23.976fps

Add this one to the long list of scandals involving altered news photos: World Press Photo disqualified the third prize winner of the contest's Sports Features category for removing an extraneous foot from an image.
Stepan Rudik's story about street fighting in Kiev, Ukraine included a close-up image of someone's hand being bandaged (first image shown here). Removed from the original image (second image shown) was a small, blurry white sneaker that belonged to a person standing in the background.
WPP organizers said on their Web site that after the contest results were announced, it came to their attention "that Rudik's story had violated a contest rule. After requesting RAW-files of the series from him, it became clear that an element had been removed from one of the original photographs."
Bill Frakes, a WPP juror, explained to PDN: "The jury felt that this was not acceptable. Not in line with industry standards which is the test."
I don't argue that the profession has to draw its lines in the sand. Various bloggers have reported the controversy, and Rudik has been taken to task. It's a public ritual by which examples are made of people–previously Brian Walski, Patrick Schneider, Allan Detrich, and Edgar Martins, to name several–and standards are maintained.
But I have to confess that I don't entirely understand the arbitrary rules and the lack of proportionality. It's as if littering were as bad as armed robbery, and murder OK depending upon the weapon.
In Rudik's case, for instance, he was disqualified for removing the smallest element, but I would argue that all his other manipulation to the image in question did much more to change the meaning. And it was all acceptable, apparently. He converted a color image to black and white. He blew the image up. He cropped the image. He vignetted it heavily. Burning out the sneaker in a darkroom probably would have been OK back in the day, when photographers did that all the time. But removing that sneaker in Photoshop? That was a cardinal sin, and some famous burn-and-dodgers of yore are now said to be spinning in their graves.
Related photo doctoring stories:
Brian Walski was fired by the Los Angeles Times in 2003 for altering an Iraq war photo.
Patrick Schneider was stripped of POY awards in 2003 and was fired by the Charlotte Observer after a second offense in 2006.
Allan Detrich resigned from the Toledo Blade in 2007 after he was caught doctoring numerous photos.
Edgar Martins embarrassed The New York Times last summer after it published images he had altered.
The official countdown to the in-theater debut of the Tron: Legacy movie trailer continues (I call it “the slow tease”), with a fourth photo: Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund) has entered the old Flynn’s Arcade, which as you can see is boarded up, dusty, and covered in plastic. At the end of row is the old Tron arcade machine, which Sam uncovers. We’ve been telling you all week, the Tron Legacy trailer will be attached to Alice in Wonderland beginning this Friday, March 5th, and would likely hit the web sometime next week. Director Joseph Kosinski confirms this fact with MTV:
“My suggestion is to see it in 3-D in surround sound this weekend and download it next week and feel free to freeze-frame and analyze,” Kosinski said. “It was important to me that when people see it for the first time, they have the opportunity to see it in 3-D on a big screen. The entire second half of the trailer is in 3-D. On your iPhone, it’s not quite the same.”
Check out the full uncropped photo after the jump. And if you’ve missed any of the photos released thus far, I’ve also included those photos after the jump.

I taken Fotos in the last couple of months – please tell me your thoughts:

Revlon Photo Ready Foundation is what I call a game changer. Not only can Revlon Photo Ready hang with the high-end offerings, I think it can even win a few rounds.
I have very strict criteria for foundations because my skin requires I be choosy. It’s sensitive, combination and breakout-prone –I’ve had many bad skin moments after a trial run gone bad with what’s supposedly the “latest and greatest” in foundations. Currently, I’ve been altering between my beloved Tarte Smooth Operator tinted moisturizer and NARS Sheer Glow – at $36 and $42 respectively.
About a month ago after hearing all of the claims of greatness about Revlon Photo Ready I decided to give it a try – picking up two shades during a BOGO event, Vanilla (002) and Shell (003). Both shades are a match, but I like to mix them together. Now this is being compared to Make Up For Ever’s HD Foundation as it is meant to look great on camera. I’d argue it tops MUFE’s performance in a big way, at least for me.
After four weeks of regular use, I can unequivocally say that this is one of the best foundations I’ve tried in a long time. It doesn’t break me out at all, it is long-lasting, provides great coverage but is not heavy in the least. And it does photograph amazingly. I’ve heard complaints about glitter or shimmer and I have not experienced this in the least. I buff it onto the skin with my Sephora #55 which may help with that.
If you’re in the market for a new foundation, I recommend giving Revlon Photo Ready a try. Has anyone already tried this out? Any raves or rants you want to share?
I try to avoid letting the aperture on my lenses going smaller than f13 (that means bigger f numbers) and f16 is the complete limit. This is because diffraction will start to take place after around f13* and that will result in softer images no matter what you try.
I suspect when you say you used AF that you might have let the camera pick the AF point it wanted from the whole range – aimed at the scene and shot. The problem with this approach is that AF tends to go for the closest most contrasty thing it can lock onto which is not always what you want to be focused on (which is why many shooters use the middle point only so they can define what they want in focus).
In addition for a landscape shot you don't need to keep closing down (bigger f numbers) the aperture; instead read up about hyperfocal focusing. Its a method I know of but don't use myself (not much of a landscape shooter) but it allows you to get an in focus shot with a very big depth of field even if you are not using a very small aperture. I'll leave a more indepth description to others here or to what you can find with google – but hyperfocal is what you are wanting to aim for (that and a nice good tripod )
*actual point varies depending on the camera body, sensor size and the lens used

Yes, Alex Galmeanu does a nice job with the archive. Thankfully there are pictures of Bucharest since we all know that Bucharestians absolutely hate having their picture taken. I did a Bloomberg News assignment here on Thursday about the economy and tried to photograph at Piata Matache inside where a woman was selling carrots to an old man but was stopped immediately as I drew my camera to my eye. Simply amazing stuff! Where did the security guy come from?! How was he so close to me already?! Why can I not photograph a woman selling vegetables?! I mean I had no wiggle room. I had no time to even try to make a picture. I managed to get off three frames while the security man yelled at me and one frame was used by Bloomberg. . . next month’s rent paid and I was almost kept from taking a single frame. Bucharest is a mean city. If corrupt politicians and business men can make millions, I certainly should be allowed to make a half a grand.

So if the photo couldn't be produced right away when this story first came out, there is either a legal reason; or, it's taking a while to photo shop it to look real.

Tv show Extra will never get an interview with Bullock after paying this Mcgee freak's husband for a sitdown. He said the award show made Bombshit crazy and she was bent on destroying Jesse. Why couldnt he just wank off? Instead a crazy fatal attraction is ruining not only his life but Sandra's and the kids.
