How exercise can change your life
A world authority on exercise, Professor Steven Blair from the University of South Carolina, recently visited Australia and he talks about the importance of being fit and how being fit is more likely to save your life than being less fat.
Norman Swan: Hello and welcome to the Health Report with me Norman Swan.
Today in a first for the Health Report we're going to meditate, so get yourself comfortable and don't worry, there'll be no chanting.
And new evidence on the benefits of exercise, how it extends lives and how being fit overwhelms being fat. Professor Steve Blair is one of the world's leading exercise researchers and I caught him a few days ago while he was visiting Australia.
Steve Blair: Recently we published a report on a subset of men that had had multiple examinations over many years. So 14,000 of these men and 1,000 or 1,200 of them died during follow-up, but what we were able to do was to model changes in fitness over time at these repeat examinations and also changes in bodyweight and percent fat. And then we were able to look at the trends in changes in fat, changes in weight, changes in fitness and risk of dying during the follow up period.
And interestingly enough these guys who were about 45 years of age at their first exam changes in weight, changes in fat just made no difference for their mortality risk, it was absolutely flat. But those who improved their fitness had a substantial reduction in mortality risk again during the follow up period. The fitness/fatness issue – fitness is just far more important as a determinant of health and longevity than is fatness.
Norman Swan: And when you removed fitness from the equation was there any effect at all of waist circumference and overweight and obesity?
Steve Blair: No, not changes in those variables.
Norman Swan: So if you were fat to begin with that wasn't good, but if you became fatter as time went on it was that change that didn't make any difference?
Steve Blair: Yeah, the change made no difference whether you gained weight or lost weight and that is consistent with – there was a fair bit of research 15 or 20 years ago and we published a couple of papers on this topic. The buzz word then was yo-yo dieting, if your weight goes up and down, up and down, is that good or bad and again almost all of those studies showed that weight stability is good in terms of mortality risk. That's whether your weight is stable at a relatively high level or at a relatively low level or in-between.
Norman Swan: So what's going on here, because there is such a prevalent belief that increased waist circumference, and there was quite good evidence from Swedish studies and others, that waist circumference is directly related to your chances of dying, particularly of coronary heart disease.
Steve Blair: That is true in those studies if they totally ignore physical activity and fitness, which they do. We do not, we have waist and percent fat measured in the laboratory, we have fitness measured in the laboratory and in those analyses we consider both, weight and fat and fitness. And when you adjust for fitness, fatness just has no association with all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease mortality, incident heart attacks. So yeah, there's a lot of literature out there that says high waist circumference is harmful, but if you look at those studies, if they mention physical activity at all, and many of them you can't even find the words in the paper, so that's pure junk science when that happens. If they mention it at all they say 'we measured physical activity by self-report, using a validated instrument' and then they give a reference. So you go to that reference and see that the correlation between their self-report and some gold standard like fitness or even doubly labelled water, the correlation tends to be .3 or .4.
Norman Swan: So there's not much correlation between what they say they're doing in terms of fitness and their actual fitness.
Steve Blair: No, their self-report counts for 10% or 15% of the true variants in the measure.
Norman Swan: What liars we are Steve.
Steve Blair: That's part of it but it's also some people just can't remember, it's just a bad measure.
Norman Swan: And what kind of fitness was it? There's more and more interest these days in weight training and muscle strengthening and research here in Australia has shown that if you weight train you can in fact prevent diabetes for example and people who are at risk of diabetes. So what kind of fitness did you measure?
Steve Blair: Well, both. Now most of our research has been on cardio-respiratory fitness, aerobic fitness which you get from doing aerobic activities and one reason is that in this group of 80,000 men and women we've been following we have aerobic fitness on everybody. But we have muscular fitness, measured muscular strength in the laboratory, one repetition maximum bench press, one repetition, maximum leg press, but we only have those data I think it's on 14,000 or 15,000 people, so we don't have enough data to do as much investigation as we are able to do for aerobic fitness. But we have turned to this in the last 5 years or so and it's really just in the last few years that we've learned that muscular strength, which again you get from resistance training, from weight lifting and the like, is an independent predictor of morbidity and mortality. And of course in our data base we can look at strength and adjust for cardio-respiratory fitness, we can look at cardio-respiratory fitness and adjust for strength and the bottom line is both are important, they overlap a little bit but they are both important.
Norman Swan: And you've just done a study of men with high blood pressure.
Steve Blair: Yes but let me go on for just a moment about strength and diabetes, you mentioned that. We've done some work my colleague Tim Church published a paper a year or two ago in the Journal of the American Medical Association in which we took patients with Type 2 diabetes, it was a randomised trial, aerobic exercise only, strength training only or the combo group, aerobic and strength training and he kept the number of minutes of training the same. The combo group did much better and the primary outcome was a blood measure, haemoglobin A1c, and the combo group did better. So again that's randomised trial evidence that both strength training and aerobic training are important.
Norman Swan: And HbA1c is the measure of your blood sugar control over the last 3 months. So tell me about this study of men with high blood pressure.
Steve Blair: As I said we had a subset of participants that have provided measures of muscular strength. So we looked at a group of men who had physician-diagnosed hypertension and also had the strength measured and then followed them after the exam to see who lived and who died. And the stronger guys were less likely to die than those who were weaker. And again that held after adjusting for aerobic fitness. So I'm afraid there still are probably a lot of cardiologist and internists who will tell their patients who have hypertension, 'oh you have hypertension, don't strain and don't lift' etc. And I'm not sure that's good advice. Obviously they need to be aware of signs and symptoms when they are doing the weight training and they shouldn't hold their breath, they should exhale when they are pumping that bar up there, but again we have evidence that muscular strength is good for those with hypertension. So I think strength training exercise should be recommended for them as well.
Norman Swan: Why are they living longer lives, so are they getting fewer heart attacks, less cancer, what are they not dying of?
Steve Blair: In that particular study I think the only outcome was all-cause mortality.
Norman Swan: And do we know any more about the route from exercise to lower cancer and heart disease rates?
Steve Blair: Well we learn more all the time. If you would have asked me many years ago, maybe you did ask me years ago when I was here, you know what is the route, what are the biological pathways, I would have carried on about blood pressure and HDL cholesterol perhaps and I think those are pathways that have some relevance but they don't begin to explain the benefits of regular physical activity. So one of the more recent things that people have investigated is that those who exercise regularly have a greater ability to dissolve blood clots, so if you're getting a clot developing in a coronary artery and if you are a regular exerciser you have a better chance of dissolving it before it causes the heart attack.
We've also learned that the coronary arteries of active and fit people are more reactive, that is they can open more and so again you'd be a little less likely to have a clot that would cause a heart attack or a fatal heart attack. Another thing, very recently, in the last two or three years we published on this, is heart rate variability, and you'll have to help me explain this, but it's kind of a balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic nerve action and people who have very regular heartbeats are more likely to develop heart disease than those who have a bit more irregularity. And a little bit of exercise training in very sedentary people improves their heart rate variability just very quickly within a few weeks. So there are a lot of potential mechanisms and I'm sure there are many that no one has yet thought of.
Norman Swan: And what about women, because you've spent most of your time studying men?
Steve Blair: Well in our population about 25% of these 80,000 individuals are women. We've published many papers on women as well.
Norman Swan: And the same applies?
Steve Blair: The same applies, for example just last year we published a paper on cardio-respiratory fitness and breast cancer in women and we saw the same pattern, get out of the low-fit group and your risk of breast cancer drops substantially. It certainly applies for all-cause mortality for cardiovascular disease mortality.
Norman Swan: And finally Steve Blair, where do you stand on the exercise having to be progressive? It looks as though for dementia and brain protection, it needs to be progressive for diabetes, it seems to be progressive – in other words you've got to keep working at it and building it up over time. Are your data telling us anything about the extent to which exercise needs to be progressive?
Steve Blair: Well to be sure I understand you - do you mean that people need to do more, and more, and more over time?
Norman Swan: Yes.
Steve Blair: I don't think the evidence is really compelling on that point. Now we do know that, and I've talked about moderate fitness reducing the risk of dying in the next decade by 50%. Then if we go on out and look at our high-fit group, so those are the people doing more exercise, we see maybe another 10% or 15% reduction in risk. So more is better, at least up to a point, but you can get huge benefits for many different health outcomes just doing the standard physical activity guideline which a good target is 150 minutes a week of moderate intensity activity such as walking, or 75 minutes of vigorous activity, so you get the same dose but just in half the time. But then we also go on to say you get more benefit if you can get 300 minutes about 150 minutes of vigorous and it does appear that some outcomes, for example breast cancer you may need to get higher levels of activity to really get substantial benefits. But for most health outcomes if you're doing that 150 minutes a week you are going to get a lot of benefit. If you can do more, if you can build in more, you're probably going to get more benefits.
We start our guidelines by saying doing something is better than doing nothing and we've done a large randomised trial, 464 post-menopausal women tightly controlled exercise, all exercise in the lab measuring every heart beat, every step, we know exactly what these women were doing and we had one group, it was the control and it was keep the same habits you had, one group that did the guideline recommendation 150 minutes a week of moderate intensity, one group did half of that, so about 75 minutes of moderate and then one group did 225 minutes of moderate and we see a linear trend across those categories. So 150 minutes of moderate that's a good target to aim for, but if you only get 75 you're still going to get benefit and if you get 225 or 300 you will get more benefit. But I don't think we should tell people that it was progressive in the sense that you just have to keep more and more and more to get any benefit. Hit that target, 150 minutes a week, keep doing that the rest of your life and you'll have a lot of health benefit from that.
Norman Swan: Steve Blair, thank you.
Steve Blair: My pleasure.

We often hear the "one hour a day" recommendation about exercise. I think everyone knows exercise is "good".
It might be worth doing a program on HOW people are supposed to organise 1 hour of exercise a day, in a time when average Australian working hours are just getting longer.
If you're spending 90 minutes on the freeway every day, getting home at 6pm, there's 2 hours to spend with your children before they go to bed. You can't exercise after 8, it has to cut into family time.
Where exactly is this magical 1 hour per day that people are supposed to find to exercise?
Maybe we' as a society, should be talking about that in particular.

That is time management and choice and a separate discussion. We're all under stress and pressure so I choose to use lunch breaks for walks in the bush, others use the gym.
Im also concerned that the only point commented on is the 1 hr a day when the discussion covered a range of exercise times discussing the benefits. Toward the end the minimum recommendation was 150 minutes per week, but do you want to do the minimum?
Catalyst last week or the wk before discussed sitting for long periods and its health effects, look for it on Iview or the catalyst home page. Some suggestions from this were changing the office environment to accommodate for standing desks and standing meetings. Admittedly this is more for the office worker.

The 'one hour' can be accumulative, as can the variants to achieve the suggested weekly total.
If you were able to leave 10-15mins earlier for work, park further away from work, then walk the 10-15mins, walk 10-15 at lunch, by the time you have returned to your car you have achieved 45mins.
That's a good starting point, it also pays to vary the time amounts on differing days. Having a schedule can be beneficial, but not essential. All of experience different windows of 'free time'. Utilising those windows efficiently when you can, will also help accrue more 'total time' over a weekly period.
The most important initial principle of Cardiovascular training is to build a base from the time perspective, then look at intensity as a secondary phase.

The other point is, all is not lost if you cannot manage an average of 60 minutes a day. Do what you can. Don't fail to start exercising just because you cannot get to 60 mins.
I acquired chronic lung disease in my late 40s after severe pneumonia (and never smoking and a lifetime of healthy eating). Until then I was not motivated at all to exercise. Pulmonary rehabilitation helped me get started. Now am I a covert! We who have lung disease are recommended to walk 20-30 mins a day, despite breathlessness. Not much by Prof Blair's standards but it still makes a difference to my life.
Better go off for my walk now!

Yes this is true. I find my time very precious even when it is relaxing time.
I have helped myself overcome this by, get this, using the time to listen to podcasts that relate to my work. Then I have exercise while staying up to date in my area of expertise (psychotherapy and group work), and it makes the experience go faster and I very often get inspired by one or other topic to read/research further. This way it doesn't feel like an 'extra 1 hour' as you mention.
Dogs are the other one. Rambunctious dogs that, if not regularly walked go nuts.
It is worth persisting to see if you can get it right.
My initial impetus was kids - if I didn't get on with it I wouldn't be around when they were young adults, as my dad died of heart attack in mid-40's. I also thought I would have more to offer them as young adults than I did as children.

This episode is one of the best episodes of health report. Dr. Swan certainly did a great job bringing us quality talks on the benefit of exercise and meditation.
It is interesting the we might have always mistaken the association as causality. Being slim might be just associated with better health and the real reason is exercise, which makes us slim and healthy!
Nan M :

Health and slimness don't always both accompany exercise, but the correlation of being fat with disease states could have as much to do with poor nutrition and postcode than with lack of exercise in itself.
Thus less fat correlates with income, hence access to nutrition and health support, and less beer and more wine intake, etc. Your postcode likely stops you getting that poor nutrition kind of fat in the first place. And your postcode likely condemns you to long hours without aerobic exercise after you've developed that poor nutrition kind of fat.
Other than a postcode giving a person more chance of access to aerobic exercise habits, I haven't seen anything yet that shows any good clear causality between exercise and having a "slim" body.
But the evidence here and all around you is that exercise will improve your health heaps.
Sadly for those of us who are fat and fit, measures of fat are a lot easier to make than fitness - and the fat individual is becoming an easy target for lazy population health measures, which have the risk of marring the health of fat and fit individuals.
There is one persistent statistic that the fat-targeters don't give enough attention to: your longevity is raised by having more weight than average and it's lowered by being underweight. There is of course a limit between fat and too fat but more and more it's looking like being "slim" is as much indication of reduced longevity as being fat. If fat were filtered out, I fancy that disease would get better attention.
The distortion run by advertisers about the thin body being preferable to the fatter one doesn't help matters much either.
Forgive me if I'm wrong about the Health Report in particular, but I also think that journalists take the easy path and can always find a new fat/diet study to pore over and extract some extra emphasis on fat rather than fitness for the audience.
Swan does seem to come up with some esoterica around exercise and weight reduction for example. This may have relevance in academia, but for the general health audience...?
Mind you, there'd be no health journalism and vitamin supplements if it weren't for us worried well ;-)

I really feel for those who have families, commuting times, long office hours etc. I have a chin-up beam in the shed and do 200 each morning soon after I wake up and have a coffee. Anything else weights wise is a bonus and it depends on home life and work. I am 61, been at it over 40 years. I can plump up a bit but have a mean back. Ride an exercise bike 4 days a week for an hour. Missed out on the bike after work tonight as it was too cold at 2am. Did the chins though today, all is not lost!

I really think this message is so important. Even with the ageing population, fitness is so important, and functional fitness, not just fitness for the sake of it. I think promoting the daily walk is not enough, as we age we need to be doing more, not doing less. And cycling to and from work or walking, is one way to get daily exercise and fit it in with work, although adding some strength building is good too, can be done on lunch break instead of sitting in the staffroom.

Pay for Clinical Systems Analysts in the United States sits in the ballpark of $66K annually. Career length is the biggest factor affecting pay for this group, followed by geography. Job satisfaction for Clinical Systems Analysts is high. Medical benefits are awarded to nearly all, and most earn dental coverage. The figures in this overview were provided by individuals who took PayScale's salary questionnaire.

Clinical systems analysts are responsible for system upkeep and network traffic analysis for their organization. They are in charge of responding to end user requests regarding software or hardware device issues, and they must follow privacy and operational procedures to define functional requirements. The analyst's main functions include planning and analyzing a variety of application for use in a clinical setting, and one of their main tools includes a personal computer with troubleshooting software to determine system problems. Clinical systems analysts also analyze system networks and recommend possible changes to the existing system processes to increase productivity and minimize computer issues.Read More...
These analysts take part in the technical and procedure design stages, create detailed documentation for future reference, perform root cause analysis, and implement fixes after extensive testing phase. They also conduct system maintenance as required, as well as complete system modifications as needed to comply with clinical standards. Clinical systems analysts are the first line of customer support and also participate in training efforts, including introducing new technology to clinical staff and external clients. Generally, they report their progress to the clinical systems manager or supervisor in their department.
A bachelor's degree in system analysis, software development, or a similar field is required for this job. In addition, previousexperience in a clinical setting is generally required or preferred. Industry certifications may be beneficial. Clinical systems analysts must be organized individuals that pay close attention to detail to prevent system downtime. They should possess strong communication skills to interact with clinical staff and communicate technical issue to non-technical personnel. Additionally, they must work well in a team setting with other system analysts to achieve all organizational goals.
Clinical Systems Analysts seem to require a number of specific skills. Most notably, skills in Electronic Medical Records, Meditech, Clinical Information Systems, and Epic Information Systems are correlated to pay that is above average, with boosts between 4 percent and 11 percent. It is often found that people who know Clinical Information Systems are also skilled in Epic Information Systems (Radiant, Stork, etc.).
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
More years of relevant experience do not necessarily translate to higher paychecks. People who have worked for fewer than five years earn around $61K, and folks with five to 10 years of experience see a modestly higher median of $64K. Clinical Systems Analysts with one to two decades of relevant experience report an average salary of approximately $70K. Clinical Systems Analysts who have acquired more than two decades of experience generally do see greater compensation; their average income is approximately $75K.

Slim, with stubborn abdominal fats and love handles
Which is Better for Spot Reduction of Fat - Zeltiq or Ultrashape?
Doctor Answers 10
UltraShape for non-invasive body contouring
Ultrashape vs other non-surgical techniques including Zeltiq and CoolSculpt
UltraShape treatment has no discomfort and is usually side effect free.
UltraShape for abdominal fat and love handles

Coolsculpting VS. Ultrashape for spot fat reduction
Consultation should always be the first step in the process, we can assess and help you prioritize the treatment areas so you can have the best result possible
CoolSculpting vs. UltraShape
Web reference: http://www.mdlsv.com/Fat-Reduction-and-Body-Contouring
Coolsculpting is choice for spot fat reduction.
The best thing out there that is non invasive is Coolsculpting by Zeltiq for spot fat reduction. It focuses right on the problem area and predictably reduces the fat layer by 20 to 25% with a single treatment. I have not seen any other treatment that can do that.
Web reference: http://vandykelaser.com/body/coolsculpting-by-zeltiq/
Zeltiq is the way to go
Zeltiq has more scientific evidence supporting that it is effective. Consistently, patients have 20-25% reduction in the areas of fat that are treated. I would invest your time and money in Zeltiq. Furthermore, 30,000 + patients have been treated thus far, and most seem to be happy.
UltraShape vs CoolSculpt
CoolSculpt (Zeltiq) is older technology. It works, but there is often discomfort reported with the treatment, it takes more sessions, the applicator paddles do not fit all body parts or shapes, there can be bruising, numbness and paresthesias (unpleasant sensations) afterwards that usually go away with time. I have seen some ridges above the applicators of untreated fat that now must be addressed.
In contrast UltraShape has none of these limitiations. UltraShape is a non invasive, non painful, quick procedure with no downtime for mild to moderate fat reduction whereas liposuction is invasive and reserved for more aggressive fat removal. UltraShape® is a non-surgical treatment option that instantly and selectively breaks down fat cells in the targeted area/s, as well as tightens the skin. The targeted fat cells are released through the body's natural metabolic processes. The treatment is performed in-office and requires no needles, incisions or anesthesia. There is minimal discomfort during the treatment and no bruising, swelling or downtime afterwards. Essentially a "walk-in, walk-out" 45 minute procedure. UltraShape® can be used to contour: Flanks, Abdomen and Thighs
Web reference: http://www.pacificcenterplasticsurgery.com/biospa-newport-beach/ultrashape/
Zeltiq Coolsculpt and UltraShape Fat Reduction
Zeltiq or ultrashape
Zeltiq is the non-invasive modality available in the United States. Ultrashape is sitll not available. But for a spot size, you may just want a direct liposuction of that one area.

Panasonic releases Lumix DMC-XS1 digital camera sporting 10 different designs
It is just about time for all of those products that were shown off at CES to begin arriving on store shelves. Today Panasonic announced the release of its Lumix DMC-XS1 compact digital camera.
Featuring a 16.1MP imaging sensor, the Lumix DMC-XS1 is a very formidable entry into the compact point and shoot camera market. A 24mm 5x zoom lens brings everything into focus up front, while a 2.7-inch TFT display on the back lets you check for the perfect capture.
The Lumix DMC-XS1 is capable of 720p video capture at 30 FPS. A 690mAh rechargeable battery is also stuffed inside the 17mm thick package, which should provide for about 300 images, before needing to be recharged. Panasonic has created 10 unique case designs for the Lumix DMC-XS1 which should appeal to the younger market.
Red Epic Dragon 6K sensor updates start tomorrow, will set you back $8,500
Red, the make of high-end cinematographic cameras, will begin upgrading Epic-M and Epic-X cameras tomorrow to the new Dragon Sensor for the low price of $8,500. The upgrade will usher the already amazing cameras into the 6K era and will re-define the meaning of high definition.
The new sensor features 6K resolution with 120 frames per second possible at 5K, and features 15 stops of dynamic range. In an interesting turn of events, Red will let owners as well as the public watch the upgrade process live at their booth at NAB.
Red Epic camera owners who wait until Thursday to purchase the upgrade will have to pay $9,500. Those looking to purchase a new Epic-M with the Dragon Sensor pre-installed will be able to pre-order the camera tomorrow for $29,000. For smaller film makers who ordered the more budget friendly Scarlet, they will be able to upgrade to the Dragon Sensor in the near future. Scarlet Dragon pricing is forthcoming and we will keep you updated when more information is released.
LeakedTT: Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF6 in white appears ahead of tomorrow's launch
Images have surfaced of Panasonic's upcoming Lumix DMC-GF6 MFT camera. The camera which is set to be released tomorrow appeared in white trim, and looking quite nice.
Along with the image, info has also been leaked about the camera's specifications. Packed into the small hosing is a 16-megapixel image sensor, an all-new "Venus" image engine, low light Auto Focus system and WiFi. The camera is capable of burst of up to 4.2 frames per second, and can shoot 1080p video at 60 FPS.
Other notable features include Near Field Communication, an ISO range up to 25,600, and will come with a 14-42mm kit lens. The GF6 is expected to retail at $680 and every indication is pointing to the official launch happening tomorrow morning.

Samsung's new WiFi-only Galaxy Camera will begin shipping this month
Samsung is set to release its WiFi-only point and shoot camera / smartphone mash-up this month. Samsung took the tech community by storm when it first released the Galaxy Camera which basically features a fully connected Galaxy smartphone on the back of a full featured point and shoot camera.
Now those who want a smartphone / high-end point and shoot camera, but hate the idea of a monthly data fee can rejoice as Samsung is finally going to begin shipping its WiFi only version just a mere three months after it was announced at CES.
The WiFi-only version of the Galaxy Camera will feature a 4.8-inch Super Clear Touch LCD, 16MP BSI CMOS sensor and 21X optical zoom. The Android Jelly Bean powered device will retail for about $50 less than its cellular data connected big brother, which retails at a price point of $500.
Toshiba unveils the industry's thinnest CMOS image sensor camera mobile for next-gen mobile devices
The future of smart device cameras could lay with Toshiba, as the company announced this week the industry's thinnest CMOS image sensor camera module for next-generation smartphones and tablets.
Toshiba's new sensor is just 4.7mm high, and will allow companies to bake in high-end 13-megapixel cameras in an ultra-thin frame. Andrew Burt, vice president of the Analog and Imaging Business Unit, System LSI Group at TAEC has said:
Toshiba once again proves its technical expertise in the development of this ultra-low height module enabling customers to create the thin, attractive mobile products that consumers have come to expect. Our strategy of continuous innovation and enhancement to the TAEC systems offering, especially for the camera/imaging markets, provides the technology solutions that will drive thinner mobile devices without compromising picture quality or performance.
Toshiba's new CMOS image sensor camera module will be available to manufacturers starting next month.
Minox debuts its new retro mini 14MP digital camera, small enough to hide in palm of your hand
Minox, a camera manufacturer famous for its miniaturized digital cameras, has just unveiled the Retro DCC 14.0. This new micro camera is designed on a scale of 1:3 and is small enough to hide in the palm of your hand.
The DCC 14.0 features a 14MP CMOS image sensor and when combined with the fixed 7.4mm lens, the camera has an effective focal length of around 45mm, which is slightly wider than a human's natural vision. The lens features an f-stop of 2.0, which will means the camera should perform well in low light situations.
The camera features no manual settings and is fixed to a fully automatic mode. Images are compressed into the JPEG format with video being encoded as AVI files at a resolution of 640x480. The camera is capable of about 4X zoom and has a close focusing distance of 50cm. Available in silver and black, the Minox DCC 14.0 will retail for $240.
Fujifilm releases two new camera models just in time for summer vacations, FinePix XP200 and S8400W
Fujifilm has just shown off two new cameras that will be added to its FinePix lineup in later this spring. One is aimed at the adventurer who finds themselves in or around water, while the other is more geared towards the higher end point and shoot market.
The funky looking FinePix XP200 is encased in a protective housing that makes it waterproof up to a depth of 50 feet, and has the added bonus of making it impact resistant. A 16MP CMOS sensor with a 28-140mm lens gives the camera an effective zoom length of 5X. The Wi-Fi equipped XP200 is capable of full HD video and 10 frames per second of continuous shooting.
A 16MP BSI CMOS sensor is at the core of the FinePix S8400W and offers a huge 24-1,056mm lens which equates to 44x zoom. An aperture of f/2.9 - 6.5 combined with an ISO range up to 12,800 ensures that you are always gathering as much light as possible for the best images possible. The S8400W is capable of HD video at 60FPS at 1080i and super slow motion capture at 480FPS.
The S8400W features Wi-Fi connectivity, macro mode with a focusing distance of just 0.39-inches, and an auto focus system that is capable of sharpening things up in less than 1/3 of a second. Both camera's will go on sale in May with the S8400W being priced at $350 and then XP200 coming in at a mere $300.
Canon launches new EOS Rebel SL1, world's smallest and lightest DSLR
Canon has just released what it is billing as the "world's smallest and lightest" fully featured DSLR. The EOS Rebel SL1 weighs in at just 14.36oz and is 25 percent smaller than its older sibling, the Rebel T4i. The new SL1 is targeted at competing with the current micro four-thirds mirror-less models that are flooding the market.
Featuring a new 18-megapixel CMOS based APS-C sensor, and Canon's very fast Digic 5 image processor, this little DSLR packs a punch. An ISO range of 100-12800 can tame low light situations, and is expandable to 25600 for stills and 6400 for video. The SL1 is capable of shooting four frames per second of continuous shooting.
The SL1 also features a 9-point auto focus system that is capable of autofocus tracking when shooting video. This is enabled by the bundled 18-55 f/3-5.6 IS STM "kit lens" that features Canon's movie servo autofocus feature. The EOS SL1 will hit shelves in April with a body only price tag of $650 or $800 with the kit lens.
What can 15 GoPro cameras do? They can provide some Matrix-like content thanks to one amateur filmmaker
What can fifteen GoPro cameras do in the hands of an amateur filmmaker? They can provide some Matrix-like content, where Marc Donahue from Permagrin Films showing off his half-circle bunch of GoPro cameras in a bunch of different ways, check out the video below.
The video shows off basic things like cooking, or people riding bikes, and slowing them down and going into different angles like we've seen in The Matrix. The fifteen GoPro cameras are synchronized to shoot around the subject, giving off the effect of wrapping around the item, or persons in focus. Donahue has admitted that his technique isn't perfect, adding that he is "making a cable" to help the cameras snap photos quicker, so future videos will be smoother.
GoPro provided the cameras to Donahue, where he'll continue to pump cool content out with them in the future, where Donahue has a music video coming out soon using the same technique.
Nikon unveils new D7100 prosumer DSLR camera, 24.1MP sensor supported
Nikon has just announced the latest edition to its prosumer line of DSLR cameras. The D7100 is the direct successor to the D7000, and features a new 24.1MP DC format sensor as well as a new EXPEED 3 image processor.
The D7100 also touts a 51 point auto-focus system (15 cross-type), all of which are powered by a new Multi-CAM 3500DX AF module. The D7100 is capable of six frames per second shooting at full resolution, seven when using the 1.3x crop mode. ISO ranges from 100 all the way to 6400 and is expandable up to 25,600 when in Hi-2 ISO mode. The camera also features dual SD card ports, which should allow multi-image format capture.
Video capabilities are set at 1080p at 30fps or 60i and 50i in 1.3x crop mode. Sound is captured through an internal stereo microphone or users can opt to use an external mic through the supplied jack. The viewfinder has also been upgraded to an OLED, with 100% frame coverage. In addition, a wireless mobile adapter will allow the camera to communicate with devices up to 49 feet away.

You guys clearly have no idea what you would be giving up going from a modernized LS to a TT6.
Turbo Bearing Failures
Oil Comsumption
Turbo Lag
Boost Hose Leaks
Cracked Exhaust Manifolds
Detonation worries
And when you mod, more lag from;
Bigger Turbos
Oversize Front Mount Intercoolers
Also,Reduced Airflow to Radiator from IC above.
To end up the same HP as a smartly modded LS could give you NA with headers & cam with less weight and complexity and smoother power delivery.
For the serious modders a sleeved block to 427+ CI or a TVS can be added for the End Game.

Re: Cadillac ATS-V - Twin Turbo V6
Now you are complicating things further. If they rob the LS of a liter, they better not produce a peaky engine like Ford's new 5.0. I have seen the torque curves of both stock and modified engines, and they are very peaky. While I only drove the GT a few miles, it was enough to know that much more shifting is required than with LS3's relatively flat curve. While this won't matter to the majority of owners (who opt for the slushbox) it matters to me as I commute 90 miles/day, and much less shifting is required from the V1 and SS than my last manual V6 car.
I would have to think that if GM goes with a TTV6 in the ATS-V, it would be a bi-turbo like the 335 engine. There is supposedly no turbo lag to speak of, and a pretty broad torque curve. Although I am no expert on the BMW engine beyond what folks have told me.
Re: Cadillac ATS-V - Twin Turbo V6
The twin turbo 335i has VERY little turbo lag. I really didn't notice any at all - most of the time. Every so often there was a tiny bit - but I was tuned and could have used catless downpipes with the added power.
Re: Cadillac ATS-V - Twin Turbo V6
You bitch too much. You deal with absolutes and worst case scenarios of right now and apply them to unknown future tech. Let it go. You said you're not getting one so who cares?
Re: Cadillac ATS-V - Twin Turbo V6
When all is said and done, we're going to have to deal with whatever GM gives us. The few of us in this forum aren't going to have any impact at all on GMs decision on which engine to go with. If we had 10,000 people here talking about the ATS-V and what's coming, we might have some pull. Unfortunately, it's impossible to get a large enough group of Cadillac owners and enthusiasts together to make any difference.
that engine did not compare well to even an LS6.
Stock V1s would walk away from 335s easily.
As for no lag, there was no power either.
Small Twin Turbos and low intercooler system volume do minimize lag but also limit top end power.
I like turbos as much as anyone, but they work better on a V8 than on a V6.

You guys clearly have no idea what you would be giving up going from a modernized LS to a TT6.
Turbo Bearing Failures-- keeping aside that the APB I keep referring to was a cramped bay with crappy borg warner K03's, the only time people blew them is when they abused them.
Oil Comsumption- clearly, you've never owned an LS engine :P. Besides, when I sold it @ 130K, my S4 didn't burn a drop of oil.
Turbo Lag -- see post above
Boost Hose Leaks--fact of F/I turbo life- can'targue against this disadvantage
Cracked Exhaust Manifolds- The only turbo car I've owned which had cracked Manifolds was my mazaspeed protege, which was basicly a 2L I4 that was adapted to be F/I.
Overheating-- I really don't think so, we manage fine on the stock LS oil cooler, I would imagine a bigger one being used on a TT. 1.8L Civics and the N54 had overheating problems, and the 3.0T Audi's had water pump problems, all of them fixed prompty, and all of them typical new-engine growning pains.
Detonation worries-- you can have that with a bad tune on an LS
And when you mod, more lag from;
Bigger Turbos-- *maybe..* is all I'll say. you can both go to a more effecient turbo *and* experience no percieveable lag.
Oversize Front Mount Intercoolers--- I've really never noticed any increased lag, and the S4 had dual ER SMIC's with cores twice as thick as war and peace
Also,Reduced Airflow to Radiator from IC above.-- note SMIC's?-- not that I think it really matters a whole lot.
Re: Cadillac ATS-V - Twin Turbo V6
The engine in the 335i (N54) was originally intended for the M3 of that generation. They decided against releasing the M3 and used the engine in the 335i - extremely limited. When they decided to go along with the M3 anyway - they had to put in a V8 as they wouldn't use the same engine from another 3-Series. When the N54 335i has the limiters removed, it's a 12 second car. In my first drag race ever - not even knowing how to launch - I did a 12.9 1/4 mile with a tune and intake. The tune only turned up about 3/4 the way. The N54 is good for 500 horsepower - reliably... I had about 400.

Re: Cadillac ATS-V - Twin Turbo V6
You can talk about this all day long but the two engines that could go in the ATS-V already exist.
One is going in the Corvette, (the V8) and is rumored to be a 6.2L Gen V V8 (with DI and other goodies). You know it has to make 450+ HP, probably closer to 475 HP.
The Second is going in the next gen CTS, (the V6 TT) and is rumored to be a 3.0L Twin Turbo V6 (based on the current 3.6L family of engines). This engine should make 350-400 HP based on the fact that the 3.6L V6 makes at most 310 HP. Over 400 HP won't happen with that engine.
So now you have a few questions:
1. Is 400 HP enough for an ATS-V? (probably not)
2. Can you go V8 when your competition is going V6 Turbo? (I think so)
3. Is there a Manual Transmission that packaged and supports the V6 TT? (As of right now rumors say no)
4. Can you package a V6 TT in an ATS-V? (Yes if you use the next gen CTS steering equipment)
Based on these things, I'm willing to say it's 60% probable they will stick with the V8. 40% probable they will change to the V6 TT. The V's are rumored to be 2016's, with the next gen CTS V6 TT being a mid-2014 model, so by then I think GM will have a clearer understanding of what's going on in the market and enthusiasts will have a better understanding of both engines when you compare a C7 Corvette to a 3rd Gen CTS TT to each other.
Re: Cadillac ATS-V - Twin Turbo V6
Re: Cadillac ATS-V - Twin Turbo V6
If GM knows how to make engines, they should also be able to produce a 3.0 liter twin turbo engine that can handle 500 horsepower. Why not? If I'm not mistaken, they have a turbo "four" that can produce 1000... I'm not saying this engine should go OUT THE DOOR with 500 horsepower - but 400 would be reasonable and if tunable to 500 (for the few who really need or want that much power) - who'd complain?

Re: Cadillac ATS-V - Twin Turbo V6
I still think they should offer both. They probably won't, but they should. There are the older guys like us who want a V8, and there are the younger guys who would prefer a turbo6.
