What's new @ CES 2013
This year's Consumer Electronic Show is packed with exhibitors, industry analyists and press, all eager to see, touch and talk about this years' hottest electronics. CES isn't the biggest photography show in the calendar, but it's a great place to have meetings with manufacturers, handle their new products and of course get briefed on what's coming up next (even if we can't yet tell you about it).
As well as countless meetings over the course of the week, we've also found some time to explore the show and get hands-on with the most important new releases from the major camera manufacturers. Here's a quick rundown of some of the hottest new cameras on show at this year's CES. For complete coverage of all this year's photo new releases, make sure to check out our news coverage, and for more in-depth treatment of new mobile products, head over to our sister site, connect.dpreview.com.
|Canon's PowerShot N is turning a lot of heads at this year's CES, thanks to its unique interface, which doesn't feature conventional zoom or shutter controls...
|To zoom, you nudge a slim ring around the lens, and to take a shot you can 'pop' the outer ring inwards. The orientation of the camera doesn't matter - effectively there is no 'right way up'. Click here for our first impressions of this innovative point-and-shoot.
|This is the very lovely Fujifilm X100S, which offers some significant improvements over its predecessor, the X100, including on-sensor phase-detection AF and vastly improved manual focus.
|Although very similar externally to the camera it replaces, the X100S offers a subtly refined control layout. Click here for our hands-on preview.
|And this is its baby brother, the X20. Gone is the EXR sensor of the X10, to be replaced by an X-Trans sensor capable of true 12MP resolution.
|X10 owners will feel right at home though - the X20's operation is very similar to that of its predecessor. Click here for our in-depth preview.
|Nikon was showing off its new 1 J3, a new 1 System mirrorless camera that sits below the V2 in Nikon's growing 1 System lineup.
|Like the V2, the J3 has a 14MP CX sensor but lacks the flagship's enthusiast-oriented manual control points and built-in EVF.
|The 1 S1 sits at the bottom of the 1 system lineup, and is based around the same 10MP sensor as the older J2.
|The S1 offers an extremely simplified user interface, and relies upon an on-screen 'mode dial' for feature selection.
|Panasonic has been busy refreshing its compact cameras, and the higher-end models, such as this ZS30 offer Near Field Communication - a simple method for establishing a Wi-Fi connection by simply placing the two devices close to one another.
|The ZS30 offers 18MP resolution and a 20X zoom lens, covering 24-480mm (equivalent).
|This is Pentax's new MX-1 - a high-end compact camera named after the famous 35mm MX SLR from the 1970s.
|Offering very similar photographic specifications to the Olympus XZ-2, we previewed the 12MP MX-1 earlier this week.
|Polaroid surprised us at CES with semi-functional mockups of three new interchangeable lens cameras. They may look reminiscent of other models on the market, but the twist is that the sensors are built in to the lenses.
|This is the iM1232W, which runs a conventional camera operating system, but the co-announced iM1836 runs a version of the Android OS. Click here for more coverage.
|The NX300 is Samsung's newest NX model, and offers a raft of improvements over its predecessor including on-sensor phase-detection AF and a touch-sensitive screen.
The NX300's OLED screen is tiltable, too. Click here to read our first impressions of the new model.
|Sigma expanded its DP range of compact digital cameras at this years' CES, with the DP3 Merrill.
|The DP3 features the same Foveon sensor as the SD1 Merrill paired with a fixed 75mm (equivalent) lens.
|Sigma was also showing off its upcoming USB dock, which connects to its new lenses and allows you to reprogram their firmware via a computer application.
|Here, the dock is attached to the new 120-300mm F2.8 DG OS HSM, and firmware customization options include focus limiting and AF adjustment at all focal lengths.

Any upgrade on the fantastic Nikon P510?
Everything getting smaller and more convenient. Sensor within lens, an interesting development, just like human eye.
Olympus take note in your next m43 epm / epl series please put the pop up flash back into the camera, not on top as separate unit, like the Nikon S1 featured here in a very small body. I really like my popup from EPL1 as its TTL power just right in close range subjects without overexposure. Please put the flash back into the body, Olympus.
The Nikon S1 for about 499. with kit, although not full featured, has very fast phase detect AF so considering its larger sensor size should be more desirable to some, than a advanced compact cameras without interchangeable lenses at the same price point with much smaller sensor. For m43, how about developing Phase on sensor like Nikon or is it a patent thing? M43 Pens also need a VGA 920,000 LCD like Nikon, for more accurate colour than OLED of EPL5. My EPL1 has more accurate colour than EPL5. Regardless, still enjoy using my Pen, even after 2 years.
VF is sexier than LCD, period.
Getting sick & tired of the current trend of cameras loosing their EVF/OVFs ..
Then bullsh*tting the public into thinking that the above is a 'Premium' feature now, when it has ALWAYS been & SHOULD always remain a FUNDAMENTAL component of a CAMERA!
- That's right .. camera.. NOT a wave it about in front of your face iphone!
Agree with u , but who listens,
Wow that blue Polaroid is really ugly!
Sensor-in-lens sounds interesting, like Ricoh's modules but I'm guessing smaller sensors and cheaper opticals.
People still go for bling and ugliness though. :)
Hopefully we will see new D-Slrs just before Japanese CP+ show at the end of this month.
pentax knows how to lower its glory of the past, i say that because, how nice could it look and how amazing could it be if mx-1 had a big sensor.
i don't see like a nice thing to make a reference to past like this, using such a small sensor for something that once had what is the biggest nowdays.
the body looks awesome, but the lens... the same case happens with the om-d, but this the body also does not live up to the original, it seems to have less harmonious design.
NOw we hold off buying computers with conventional Hard Disc Drives because they are too slow to use with USB2 and 3, and want Solid State drives instead, so too we should hold off buying these tiny sensored cameras that physically are big enough to use APS-C and even full-frame. The new Fuji may be OK, but the x100 SHOULD be a full-frame machine. Even Leitz-not exactly the most adventurous of designers, have gone full-frame at the same price.
As to the tiny sensos, well, you may as well stay with a Canon G2,3,5,6 or even a Nikon 950 as the cramming of pixels (and/or their imterpolation) has done nothing for PHOTOGRAPHY at all- just as this site repeatedly said years ago.
The number of secondhand new compacts on the market bears witness- they really are toys.
"Even Leitz-not exactly the most adventurous of designers, have gone full-frame at the same price."
What camera are you referring to here? Leica X1/X2 aren't full-frame, whereas the M series rangefinders are much more expensive than the Fuji, and that's for the bodies alone. A full-frame compact from Leica would be at least as expensive as the Sony RX1.
> The new Fuji may be OK, but the x100 SHOULD be a full-frame machine.
Why not medium format? Those who do full frame have legacy lenses, Fuji does not.
Imagine, if you will, a digital GX680. AF driving bellows if you need AF (and long lenses that are true telephoto), and I'd bet that the old Fujinons would still stand up these days. Okay, it would cost like an immoderately-sized house in a toney neighbourhood and they'd onlly sell eight of 'em, but why not?
"The number of secondhand new compacts on the market bears witness- they really are toys."
Actually, I think it says more about the rapid development, evolution, and progress that compact cameras are undergoing. And anyone who calls other cameras "toys" simply based on the size of their sensor probably has too much of his manhood derived from his camera equipment.
What I see a lack of is viewfinders! Fujifilm are the only ones and the X10 isn't that great. So we only have the X100s that is nice to look through - and you can't use the OVF for focusing!
Maybe I'm just old fashioned but I like to look through a camera at the scene unless of course I'm using a view camera in which case I want the scene upside down!
Remember when Fuji and Kodak were rivals, and Kodak was king? Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Kodak gone, Fuji going strong. One company didn't survive the digital transition, one company did.
I like that Canon at least give a nod to trying something new with ergonomics. Fuji look like they really understand what they have worth the X100 design... a classic worth respect and evolutionary enhancements on the outside together with revolutionary enhancements on the inside. The X100s is going to be massive.
Samsung made a good call, building a camera with Android built in. More camera manufactures at all levels need to do this... makes app development feasible and communications seamless.
Looking forward to more innovation ahead!
Based on the recent past, the DP3M will have the new "sharpest lens on the planet." Reason: less difficult optical path compared to the most recent holder, the DP2M. The trade-off is a little more bulk, which should not pose a problem. For ca. $1k street, it will be hard to beat in terms of image quality.
Retro look, cameras looking the way they don't have to any more, funny colors, cheap(er) copies... but not much of what the end users wish.
And while manufacturers should pay more attention to users, it seems their ideas come from the sources which, I think, are quite distant from its buying public. Too large percentage of "new" comes from juggling the old, anyway.
In the end, we never get exactly what we want, rather what's a bit closer to what we want, from among what we can choose...
It's like fashion...retro is in. Colors are in. People have grown tired of white/gray/beige/black devices. Maybe it's not what you want but other people do.
There are lots of people who like retro, funny colors. Frankly,I've grown bored with bland white/beige/gray/silver/black colors schemes for devices. But that's me and I'm not you.
I'm sure there's something out there you like. In fact the choices are so overwhelming it's hard to choose just one without feeling like I'm missing out on something . That's life! Always been that way and always will be!
Keep in mind these are devices being shown at the CONSUMER electronics show, not a professional photographers show.
However, I have to disagree that they are not paying attention to what end users want. These devices may not reflect your wants, but they do reflect what other consumers want. These companies are not as stupid as you may think, and they will sell billions of dollars of this junk.
Totally agree. If retro is desirable, they should focus on retro functionality. What if the MX-1 functions just like the old MX? I would love to have my old MX back, but with auto focus and auto exposure. If they skip all the buttons and menus maybe we can focus more on taking pictures.
Sure there are things that I'd like, and I'm certain the companies aren't stupid... They'll sell the "junk". But there is a certain thing that I would like to be able to buy, and it's been decades that nobody tried to (re)produce that camera in digital version, although it's been possible all the time.
It's not only me who'd like to acquire a digital version of Nikonos V, for example. There is also no technical barrier to do it. Instead, we get to pick among nice "tough" cameras, which are environmentally sealed / guaranteed for a certain timespan (which is quite silly, since time shouldn't play any role there), with no interchangeable lenses, and unable to withstand normal diving depths (meaning -40 to -80 meters), compared to -15 meters offered with the newest Olympus TG-2.
I surely would like to have such a camera, and I'm positive that millions of divers worldwide think the same. I'm also sure the manufacturers know that...
The Fuji x20 looks nice except that it looks like a name plate fell of the front of it with those to little holes in the upper plate...............
lenses have a firmware now too?
for what?
Most lenses that feature electrical data connections (as opposed to the mechanical ones used before 1980s) have some kind of firmware. So lenses having a firmware is definitely not a new thing and predates consumer digital cameras by more than a decade. Upgradeable firmwares are a little bit newer, but even they have been around for years.
people still can make decent prints off of compact cameras. Phones still can't really compare just yet...
Most people don't make prints anymore. Most images now live on digital screens, whether it be your computer screen, iPad screen, phone screen, the internet, etc. The current zeitgeist of photography, for most people, is all about distribution so that lots of people can see your images. Prints don't accomplish this very well.
Some people actually like prints. It is the ultimate way to assess image quality, but that's not the most important reason for printing: a physical support is forever, images on the Internet will vanish from memory in just about seconds.
That said I agree with Samuel, although it takes a more than decent compact camera to get good prints. Large ones aren't within the reach of most compact cameras.
This kind of comment is a bit condescending...
FYI Before the implementation of digital cameras, "most people" would get their photographs on glossy paper support... So did they create art?
By which logic outputting an image digitally or materially categorizes it as art or not?
And not all photographic applications are intended to create art.
In which way is yours, mine, or anybody's work different? Anybody can go and print as well. Makes no difference to me.
I find some "amateurs" sharing through the web to be offering some refreshing and sometimes even staggering images.
I do not really follow this logic... Most people just share images for the simplest pleasure of keeping and sharing memories and instants.
Many pro or rather wannabe pros however could be criticized much more in perspective of their work... After all, they're pros, they're supposed to be efficient in their field.
So we like something or not, we find it of bad tastes or not...
But there's no point in criticizing that. Or "most people"... methinks.
Plus let's put it into perspective: why would the "average Joe" make a print of something he just want to keep for himself, show his friends or whoever else? It will not accomplish it and it will just take up space gathering the dust...
I only print what I want hung on a wall, or when I want to make an album out of something. (Even when I shoot film, I sometimes only get the negatives...)
And I don't consider it more art than what is stored on a hard drive... Just another way to display...
"'Most people don't make prints anymore'. [sic] 'They never did.'"--By DidiBaev
How old are you?
Some of you need to join the 21st century. In this day and age, you can take an image, and upload it to the web (literally within moments of taking the photo), where hundreds, thousands, or even millions of people can see it in a matter of minutes, hours, days. Or you can do things the old fashioned way: shoot an image, take it home, let it sit on your harddrive, or maybe print it out (so you can "assess image quality") and have maybe half a dozen people ever see it! Sorry, oldsters, but the internet isn't going away any time soon. It's not a passing fad. And it's probably the primary way that images are now viewed, distributed, shared, and talked about today.
And if all you're really interested in is "assessing image quality" of a print, then you've really lost touch with what photography is really about. You've lost sight of the soul of photography.
T3, we usually agree but not this time. The fact some people like prints doesn't mean they're old farts who live in the past. Printing and uploading to the internet are not incompatible. (And why should they be?) People didn't stop handwriting and fraternizing because computers gave them the convenience of writing with a keyboard and socializing on Facebook. Why should it be different for photography? If you think the new habits brought by the computer age completely replaced everything people used to do before, you'll end up lost if one day you're deprived of a computer.
And what exactly, in your view, is photography about? You should accept the fact that some people like the feel and the permanence of a print, instead of bashing them as fools who lost touch with reality. It's not like everything new is marvellous and everything old is shameful. Your reply makes you sound like an alienated person who has no tolerance toward anyone who thinks differently.
@ ManuelVilardeMacedo: "And what exactly, in your view, is photography about?"
Sadly, a lot of the older generation thinks its all about the print...and BIG prints, no less...for "assessing image quality." But the reality is that people consume and view photos in so many, many other ways now besides a print. Just because an image may never actually be printed does not make it any less of a photograph. Just because it isn't printed doesn't mean that it will make less of an impact, create less of an emotion, send less of a message, evoke less of a feeling.
I, and millions of others, enjoy looking at photos every single day...and have no need (or ability) to see the image in physical print form. So what? Photographs can look just as stunning (or oftentimes even more stunning) in my iPad as on physical paper. It's not that prints are "shameful." It's the thought that photographs aren't really photographs unless they can be evaluated in print form that is "shameful."
«Old generation»?
Really, T3?
...Oh, forget it. I was going to think of an articulate reply, but it would be a complete waste of time. Stick to your opinion.
@T3 and ManuelVilardeMacedo
Manuel, except on the term, that you thought was offensive or inappropriate about "old generation", it seems to me that both your opinions are really close...
To me T3, emphasize the fact that assessing image quality should not be the purpose of photography, while you simply argue that printing is not only a thing of the past and should be given some consideration too....
But originally T3 did not bash prints, it was more a reaction.
Which somehow I perceive as you both agree the medium is not the most relevant factor. T3 argues that digital media are as relevant as any other, and you simply wanted to stress that it is just something people can enjoy as well...
So I don't see the point of your dispute here...
Am I misunderstanding something?
Phones take snapshotquality pics. Compactcameras are dead. APS-C is phased out. Big 35mm sensors and very transparent glass rule. Topend 35mm DSLR approach Mediumformat resolution.
Why bother about pricey cameras that are slow, plastic lensed and cant keep up with an Instamatic from yesteryear.
You got it . The new trend will be 10# cameras around the neck, Soooooo sexy
It's far too early to announce the death of APS-C. The launch of the D600 and 6D might get Full Frame sales into double-digit percentages of interchangeable sales, but it's a long way from being mainstream.
APS-C offers a proven price/capability balance (and, in the Mirrorless sector, a size advantage), so I'd expect it to remain with us for a long while. It's been the standard format for many years now - Full Frame is currently a niche, specialist format, not the norm.
Maybe I have no clue - which has happened before. Why would a lens need a firmware update unless it was bad to begin with?
I like the pentax but it's at least 1/2" too wide
Lenses are no longer just glass and gears. They are complex electronic devices that pass a lot of critical communication data between the lens and the camera. Being able to give a lens a firmware update basically allows you to future-proof the lens, thus preventing its obsolescence as cameras become updated with new technologies, new algorithms, new refinements in what/how they communicate with the lens.
Sigma USB dock sounds very interesting.
Interesting, maybe. I don't like that it mentions "new lenses" only, would be nice if they cared for older ones as well. It also looks like it is only for a single mount which in case of Sigma does not make much sense - might as well do it through their cameras. Finally, with the size of FF lenses, why not just a micro USB port on the lens itself?
The above commentary for the Panasonic ZS 25 is not quite correct -- the right panel says it has a 25x zoom while the picture of the camera in the left panel shows 20x; the separate Dpreview specs for ZS 25 also indicate a 20x zoom.
My mistake - I was evidently looking up the TZ25 - old (European) habits die hard. Apologies. The camera in the images is the ZS30, and the text is now correct.
The ZS and TZ models do have one key difference - video frame rate. The non-US models offer PAL-compatible video (multiples of 25fps), while the North American models are NTSC (multiples of 29.97fps). Whether that makes sense is another matter but the names do mean more than 'I've paid money to the US subsidiary, so they should service it.'
Once again, lots of new cameras but only two with viewfinders. My wife (who is not as serious a photographer as me) won't even consider using a camera that does not have a viewfinder. And after struggling with the Panasonic LX3 and Canon S100 in daylight and bright sun, I will never buy another camera that doesn't have one. I can't figure why the manufacturers do not realize this. Why do they think photos ought to be taken at arm's length?
The amazing thing is years ago I whined about no viewfinders and I was the "fool". See how fashion comes around?
First of all, people don't take photos "at arms length." Secondly, not everyone takes photos in bright, unflattering mid-day sunlight. Thirdly, if you do happen to take photos in bright light, it's easy to just shade the screen with your free hand if you have too: instant LCD shade.
Plus, not everyone wants to have to squint through a viewfinder hole with a camera mashed to their face. LOL. Obviously, that might be an exaggeration, but obviously the point is that there other ways to take photos aside from just using an eye-level viewfinder! Besides, not everyone wants to take photos just from eye level.
I just don't get people who would rather use a tiny dark compact camera viewfinder as opposed to a big bright 3" LCD to compose pictures.
Check what happens if you shoot for a day with a camera with both viewfinder and LCD screen.
What happens with me is, I almost always use the viewfinder - without really thinking about it. I only notice in retrospect. So for me it's not a complicated intellectual exercise to figure out what's best - it's my body telling me what works best. And this is after shooting for several years with only the LCD.
Indeed, and as not so new developments - specifically large, detailed OLED EVFs - are quite routinely equipping better MILCs (btw. providing a good way of chimping as well) there is no need to be bothered with those awkward LCDs, smeared with fingerprints, anymore :) !!
I found taking picture with just the LCD fairly difficult. This may has to do with age too. As you get older, especially with glasses on, you start to need to put the camera further away from you to see (Unless with reading glasses, or for the very least remove your existing glasses). Problem solve with a viewfinder. EVF wasn't too good until recently. I am currently using a 5dm3, E-M5, and the X Pro 1 all have Viewfinder. Putting your eye against a viewfinder also help reduce camera shake, which I think is another important factor to take good picture.
Using the LCD in a low-light place (e.g., theater) is like pointing a flashlight at your face.
The Panasonic G3 has a beautiful, bright EVF. I read the technology of it, (don't remember the details, but figured it must have been left here from the future along with the Terminator chip :),
It is ideal for me - I wouldn't change a thing. So if they put the same thing in a compact superzoom, I'd be first in line.
re: viewfinders, I most enjoy the act of looking "through" a TTL viewfinder, with camera up to my face, rather than "at" a screen on the back, at a bit of a distance.
BUT having BOTH is the best! There are times and uses for both, and current technology makes it easy enough to provide both. It doesn't have to be one or the other, and just because you prefer one way over the other yourself, doesn't make the other side stupid, too old or too young, etc. Let's have our cake and eat it too, with extra frosting if we want!
The problem is viewfinders cost money and make cameras bigger. This leaves two alternatives to a viewfinder model - a smaller, cheaper model with the same spec or a smaller model with a better spec for the same price. Given that choice, more people decide they can live without the viewfinder, so manufacturers make only a couple of models to satisfy the niches that demand one.
What makes you say that? Elitism? A cardboard box with a pinhole in it can be a "photographic tool".
Only one camera here is pocketable. the rest are too bulky for your front pockets partly due to lenses and one camera's body is unsually wider than the rest about nearly half a footlong or more.I'll go for Canon squaresh small body with zoom. I wonder if the lens will eventually retracted or resettled well flushed to the facewall of the camera and it will be nice and neat that way.
The Canon PowerShot N reminds me of a Seinfeld quote:
"Sometimes the road less traveled is less traveled for a reason."
Well, somebody had to try that. Odd that it had to be Canon, this thing is more in Casio or Samsung line. There were a lot of complaints lately that Canon is falling behind and does not really innovate. They've heard the message but they still need to work on the understanding of it.
Barney. Will you be returning there tomorrow? If so take a wet fish and slap the company reps around the head with it and repeat. " I want a viewfinder, I want a viewfinder" You might need more than one fish.
the screen IS the viewfinder...
the EVF is just a smaller version (albeit 'restricted to your face' like conventional OVF/Optical Tunnels)
i'm more interested in HYBRID-OVF-EV BINOCULAR-Finders... NOT MONOCULAR-Finders still currently dominating dcams...
So we could have true binocular-stereo 'ViewFinding' in Natural 3D (dual mode optical-electronic viewing), not UNNATURAL 2D monocular viewing.
of course I'm not talking about 'cheap monocular 2D dcams tacked onto a binocular'... not the same thing.
Can't use a screen in sunlight, need a viewfinder.
Entropius hit the nail on the head: the real innovation is the LCD screen and the electronic viewfinder because it's like looking at a miniature version of the photograph you're about to make. With an optical viewfinder you're peering through an hole at the visual world and trying to visualize in your head what the future photograph will look like. With an electronic EVF or screen you already know before you press the shutter. Incidentally, Sony has made the RX-100 screen perfectly visible in bright sunlight via a menu setting. It works fine.
alot of people, like myself, like to immerse themselves in the scene via a viewfinder.. having all that extra info around you when you dont use a viewfinder can detract from the composition.
as. well.
3d viewfinder would be a no no.. photography 101 (or 102) teaches that elemments in a frame may merge together in a unappopriate way.. and you cant see this if you are composing the shot in 3d.. you cant see the merging when you have a real depth perception
Seems from the picture of the polaroid that the sensor appears to be in the body.
What's that rectangular opening in the center of the mount and what's that circular opening at the mount end of the lens?
It's a dummy camera - don't read anything in to what you see in the 'lens mount' of this picture.
Here's hoping DPR gets a shot sooner than later to review the X20. It is such an extreme departure from the X10 (totally different style of sensor, not just different color filter) that a comparison between it and its forebearer would be juicy.
That Sigma USB dock is a good thing also for the following reason. It will build up pressure on camera manufacturers to either also build such a dock for their own lenses or enable micro-adjustment in all bodies.
i wonder how you make note of the correction needed to then input that when the lens is on the dock.. i presume you do some thing with the lens on the camera..? or, is there some way to point the lens at a target while it is the dock and focus is evaluated by an application? that doesn't make a lot of sense, though...
The dock will receive the same kind of info that a camera would while controlling the lens (ie : access to zoom and focus-mechanism).
That would enable them to simulate a camera (or at the very least its interface) in the software. Add a reference picture to use with your camera and one probably could make an educated guess what adjustments you would have to make to the lens.
Camera manufacturers update lens firmware through the cameras, so no need for a dock.
Sigma's updateable firmware dock is extremely cool. I am very impressed with Sigma at the moment, the 35 was excellent and they seem to have a new lease of life.
How is this different than what you can do with µ4/3 lenses now? At least the camera can be updated to deal with the lens; not sure what exactly is being updated.
What is updated is code for the protocols that the lens and camera use to communicate. Remember, third-parties often have to reverse-engineer the proprietary interfaces that cameras use because e.g. Canon are not that interested in letting third-party lens manufacturers make as functional lenses as they do themselves.
"Polaroid surprised us at CES with semi-functional mockups of three new interchangeable lens cameras."
From what I read, the cameras themselves were entirely non-functional. The only thing that worked is the Android OS on one of them, but no indication that it was anything more than a plastic fake model with a cheap android phone pcb and screen glued in to look legit.
the kind-of-working Android OS on one of them would be the 'semi-functionality' that I mentioned ;)
So, smoke and mirrors. I still want to hear Polaroid's justification for putting the sensor with the lens. So far the experience with every interchangeable lens system was that the lenses have much better longevity than the body. Constant sensor tech improvements were one of the main factors, especially paired with the slow pace of the mature high-end optics industry and the prices of good quality glass.
AngryCorgi - The Verge videod an iM1232W (or whatever it's called), working to an extent. It could show live view and supposedly take photos, slowly.

Take a quick tour of Nikon's new D850 in our 'First Look' video and find out what makes this new pro-level DSLR so exciting. Hint: a lot of things.
Nikon appears to have pulled out all the stops for its D850. It combines high resolution and speed: a full-frame 45.7MP BSI CMOS sensor capable of 7 fps bursts. The D5's 153-point AF system, a tilting touchscreen and 4K/24p video are also on board. It arrives in September for $3300.
The Nikon D850 is a 45.7MP full-frame DSLR that can shoot at seven frames per second. Supporting this is an autofocus system lifted wholesale from the company's pro-sports D5 model. Add in a bigger viewfinder and full-width 4K capture and you've got a lot more than a warmed-up D810.
Cinema equipment powerhouse Arri has introduced a new line of full spectrum neutral density filters that drawn on its years of experience creating internal filtration systems for its ALEXA Mini and the AMIRA movie cameras.
The 'pocket powerhouse' Godox Wistro AD200 flash just got a new accessory. Now, you can swap out the speedlight or bare bulb heads for a 3.6-watt LED lamp.

More important? Don't look at it unless you've got solar filters. Sensors can be replaced, your retinas can't.

This got me thinking...
I realized how valuable it would be to grab an interviews with one or more of these weight loss professionals and simply pick their brains.
But Obviously they would have to tick all the boxes.
As well as having expertize in all aspects of fitness and exercise, they would have to be big on nutrition, helping their clients overcome any dietary issues they may have. From breaking bad eating habits to coping with severe food cravings. Some even design specific diet plans for each individual, tailored for that clients situation.

Now, maybe there's nobody more qualified to dish out weight loss advice than this individual.
Going back just a few years, Nick lived a totally different life to the one he leads today. Working long hours in a demanding corporate position, taking care of himself was the least of his priorities. As a result, Nick weighed in at over 22 stone. After seeing this holiday photo, he decided something has to be done.

In part 2 of this interview Anne and I delve much deeper into exactly how she helps her clients to lose weight, get in shape and start looking great.
"By default we're harsh on our selves. I mean, we only talk about negative stuff and we feel very uncomfortable to talk about the positive things we do in life. We have to make that switch in our minds that if we're going to be successful at anything really, especially weight loss, we have to think of how far we've come and not how much is left to achieve".
Here's a weight loss and fitness professional that really knows his stuff.
John's one of the hardest working personal trainers in the business.

In part 2 Sabrina dishes out lots more tips and advice on how to drop pounds and get yourself looking fantastic.
Aside from her personal training and fitness qualifications, Sabrina also has a degree in Chemistry and says...
"Having a degree in Chemistry really helps me understand the way our bodies work chemically and how much it relies on the types of food we put into it".
After serving 8 years in the British Parachute Regiment, Adam began setting his sites on the career he was made for.
He qualified as a personal trainer while studying sports science in Bangor university, and has since started his own business helping clients create change, and ultimately achieve their health and fitness goals.
Adam has competed in numerous sports such as cross country, Triathlon, Cycling, fencing and judo. You could say, his experience and qualifications certainly give him an excellent understanding of how the human body responds to food and exercise when it comes to losing weight and getting in shape.
"Always be ready for the next step. Identify potential problems early on and deal with them before they arise".
As a Natural Nutritionist, Karina's focus is on helping her clients better understand the reasons for their ill health and weight gain, as well as educating them on how to reverse their situation by looking at habits, dietary behavior and lifestyle choices.
I think you'll agree, most people are confused about what foods are good for them and what foods they should stay clear of.
Karina offers a simple and easy to digest way of understanding what Fats, sugars and carbohydrates you should or shouldn't be eating.
This interview will educate, inspire and even shock you to start thinking about what you actually put in your body.
In part 2 of this content packed interview, Karina gets deeper into the work she does and offers lots more healthy eating advice.
"As a fully qualified Natural Nutritionist I specialize in supporting others who also want to better understand the root causes of ill health and use food that helps to support the immune system to deliver the best possible nutrition".
First off, I should say that I'm not one of those weight loss gurus that has lost 90lbs in six months with fantastic before and after photos. Nor am I some tanned fitness fanatic with huge biceps and pearly white teeth.
What I can say is that I am someone with a real passion for helping people achieve their goal weight, as I realize that sometimes we all need a little help, a push in the right direction. That's why I do what I do.
Back in 2010 I was around 30lbs over weight. Now I know that's not a massive amount but as someone that has always been slim, I was quite alarmed how easy the weight crept on while I wasn't really paying attention. But as with lots of people, the weight I gained wasn't enough to make me do something about it.
Then in July of that year one of my best friends died from a brain aneurysm. My world was shattered as you can imagine. I needed something to focus on so one day at work I had the idea to raise money in his name by running ten miles on his birthday. I knew this would help his friends and family if they all got involved in the fundraiser. So that week I arranged the event and began running.
Over the next few months I studied hard. Learning techniques and strategies to help me take on such a huge challenge. Also as someone that loves cooking (and eating even more :-D), I wasn't willing to give up the foods I loved, so I got to work creating healthy variations. I began designing quick and tasty dishes by using my knowledge of spices, fresh herbs and simple cooking techniques.
This was a massive help I think, being able to still enjoy good food while training.
The funny thing is… Although I didn't set out to lose weight, within 8 weeks I had lost 28lbs. I was amazed! This revelation set me on the path I'm on now.
So my friends birthday finally came and I run the ten miles comfortably. We raised £800 for Headway (The British brain injury charity) and continue to run the same ten miles every year on that day as a mark of respect for a great guy that we all miss.
I really loved the fact that I had lost so much weight in such a short space of time without following any FADDY diet or any really hard training schedule. I wondered why the western world has such a weight problem when I had lost quite a lot without to much difficulty.
So that's pretty much it. I'm on a long journey. A mission to help has many people get the same results as I had by spreading the word and giving as much information as possible to whom ever needs it. A bit like a weight loss super hero (without the muscles )

Multiple Sclerosis News Today will provide extended on-site coverage of the Consortium of Multiple Sclerosis Centers (CMSC) 2016 Annual Meeting June 1-4 at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland, across the harbor from the nation's capital.
Our news team will be posting feature articles on presentations at the conference, exclusive video interviews with leading multiple sclerosis (MS) researchers and professionals from the convention floor, as well as live, breaking social media coverage and live streaming.
The CMSC 30th Annual Meeting marks the organization's 30th anniversary, and is a celebration of three decades of achievements, not only for the CMSC but for all MS healthcare professionals and researchers. The Hackensack, New Jersey-based CMSC observes that the multiple sclerosis world has changed. It notes that new and promising therapies have emerged, international recognition of the value of the team approach has increased, and advanced models of comprehensive care have given more prominence. The 2016 meeting content reflects this evolution in MS care and research.
The CMSC Annual Meeting is the largest North American MS conference, with typically more than 2,000 delegates attending. Educational content presented at CMSC meetings is uniquely structured to provide clinicians and researchers with the latest information on new developments in MS science and the latest clinical tools and knowledge to enhance MS care.
The 2016 meeting will provide more than 130 educational hours to meet the needs of its multidisciplinary audience, with this year's agenda including, for example, sessions focused on the role of relapses in overall MS care, the concept of NEDA (no evidence of disease activity), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guidelines in MS, and updated best practices in infusion care.
As in previous years, the meeting will feature specialized tracks on current topics and trends in MS rehabilitation, along with courses on the fundamentals of MS care. Continuing education credits are available for participating physicians, pharmacists, psychologists, nursing professionals, social workers, and occupational therapists. A comprehensive four-day curriculum fulfills consortium members' needs and requests, while still providing time to network with colleagues and friends and take advantage of all that is offered at the meeting.
The meeting aims to provide MS healthcare professionals with up-to-date information that can positively impact both clinical practice and research. The comprehensive care model is enhanced through a focus on:
Dr. Rick Munschauer, vice president of medical affairs, neurology and immunology at global pharma Merck KGaA's Darmstadt, Germany, biopharmaceutical division EMD Serono, recently discussed the value and importance of the CMSC Annual Meeting with MS News Today, explaining its relevant for the giant pharmaceutical company.
MS News Today also interviewed Dr. Ellen Mowry, associate professor of neurology and epidemiology at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, about how her epidemiological studies led to her belief that vitamin D may be particularly important for people with MS — knowledge she will be sharing at theCMSC 2016 Annual Meeting.

MS News Today's on-site coverage of CMSC 2016 will be anchored by BioNews Services Group Managing Editor Ana de Barros, Ph.D., and Patrícia Silva, Ph.D., Managing Editor of MS News Today, will guide coverage off-site.
Also attending the conference will be BioNews Services CEO Chris Comish, Contributing Editors Carol Jertson and Eileen Soler, Social Media Director Isaura Santos, and Social Media Manager Andreia Peixoto.

WILDWOOD — The summer for the Gorbatow brothers, owners of Hankins' Fudge on Pacific Avenue, means making lots of fudge for four months, selling to the visitors who frequent the shore and closing seasonally at the end of September.
But this summer has been different than most, as co-owner Tony Gorbatow said the economy and Wildwood tourism have been off this year, which for Gorbatow means sales are down less than 25 percent.
The backbone to the local economy, tourism was a $5 billion industry in Cape May County last year.
Gorbatow joins other merchants throughout the summer who have said sales have been off.
But the Wildwood business made some significant changes this year, which improved profit margins and kept Gorbatow on pace for profits similar to last year's, he said.
One of the biggest moves, which Gorbatow said he was planning to implement anyway, was cutting back on purchasing candy, such as licorice, from suppliers and doesn't make itself.
"We've cut costs. We cut all the fat from our advertising budget. We actually got rid of our low profit-margin items. I used to carry a bunch of stuff that was low profit that I didn't make myself," said Gorbatow, 59, of Wildwood.
"Now, we sell basically only the products we make, which are fudge, taffy and chocolate-covered taffy," he said.
Gorbatow owns the business with his brother, Karnili, who makes the fudge.
Geographically speaking, Hankins' Fudge is a rarity in the Wildwoods — a fudge shop without a presence on the Boardwalk.
Hankins, which Gorbatow said makes about 1,000 pounds of fudge a week, said the shoulder seasons — in his case May and September — have become a key part of business.
North Wildwood's popular Irish Festival in September has been a major boost to his business.
"I do great. It's like the middle of summer," he said.
Senior-citizen bus trips helped. The trip packages targeted Atlantic City and included Wildwood and his fudge shop, he said.
"I've had buses spend $600 on one bus," he said. "What's kept me in the business is the senior citizen busloads."
Hankins Fudge has been a longtime name in the Wildwoods. Tony Gorbatow bought the business in 1976 from owner George Hankins.
Gorbatow said he found success early, particularly with "buy one, get one free" promotions for fudge.
"My hunch is next year will be a little better, and the year after, we'll be back to normal," he said.
"Certainly, I think the economy is the biggest reason," he said.

A Poem on love:
My mind jumps to conclusions it ought not
When that smile I see,
But what is meant by that smile?
Could it be as Hazel says, a smile not taught?
Do I speak of what I own?
Never. Never could one tame this beast,
This feeling and this sight unprecedented,
This being is my home.
A joyous chorus, a heavenly refrain!
All cliche when dealing with what we ought
A chemical so strong and strange
Its strength is all I've sought.
Consumption at the very grain,
My plan alone shall be,
For I have always racked my brain,
To think of ways to make you...me...
If sorrow falls and tears abide
I alone shall fall,
But fueled with further strength inside
I will stand tall.
Short and silent, strong and true
Truth in your eyes lies,
For where they look is far beyond
The limits of our skies,
Our small abode, quaint yet pure
Is all we ever need,
For life can never confine this soul
As long as you're with me.

Perrotis Krinos Olive Center, an initiative of the American Farm School & Perrotis College President, Dr. Panos Kanellis, was established in 2013 to address the needs and promote the success of the olive and olive oil production sector in Greece. The Center builds on the tradition of olive cultivation at the School and its place in the academic and practical training aspects of education at all levels. A long-term research, educational and demonstration olive grove was established in 2011, for the evaluation of the new super-high & high density planting systems adapted for mechanical harvesting.
The Krinos Olive Center building, which was officially inaugurated on December 2nd, 2015 through a gift of the Moscahlaides Foundation, includes a small scale olive oil cold extraction unit, storage, processing unit, oil analyses and sensory evaluation of olives and olive oil, equipment and a modern classroom for special seminars and teaching.
The Center Director Dr. Athanasios Gertsis, author of multi-year research projects in the high density olive cultivation systems adapted to mechanical harvesting and the innovative use of olive by-products, sees the Krinos Olive Center as an opportunity to "apply an holistic and sustainable approach to table olives olive oil production. It includes evaluating low input production systems and the carbon and water footprints of the olive life cycle and disseminating information to the producers and consumers. The KOC could be an innovation mediator for olives in Greek agriculture".
The Center aims to establish a forum of olive growers interested in new and sustainable production methods, including consumers, researchers, students and businessmen, as well as provide consulting services in entrepreneurship and export marketing to Greek olive producers and businesses.
A Memorandum of Collaboration with the UC Davis Olive Center at the University of California at Davis has been signed for joint full spectrum research and teaching activities, from cultivation to processing, marketing and by-product applications.
The Center organizes workshops during the mechanical harvesting season on an annual basis.

I feel so alone that I just cry in my room. I am a very happy person, a good listener, go out for activities, go walking around but it's so unbearable. I only have my boyfriend and even sometInes he's s busy we barely see each other. Is there something wrong g with me? I am beautiful, I love to help people, I'm kind and honest.

Texas: No Longer the Home of the Armadillo
The armadillo is waddling its way north: "The official small mammal of Texas is becoming a Yankee.
Blame global warming. Or maybe just wanderlust.
Texans feel proprietary about the armored mammal, but we hardly have a monopoly on its range. It's not even a native.
The nine-banded armadillo, the most prolific of the 20 species of armadillo and the only one to live in the United States, crossed the Rio Grande about 150 years ago.
In recent years, though, it has been spotted as far north as Illinois.
'I don't know exactly how they get here,' said Joyce Hofmann, a research scientist with the Illinois Natural History Survey's center for wildlife and plant ecology. 'I don't know if they're really surviving and breeding here.'
But she has gathered more than 100 reports of sightings — mostly roadkill — since 1999.
A few have been found as far north as Chicago, but most have been in southern Illinois.
Emboldened by the disappearance of its predators, the 'dillo spread first across the Southeast and now is marching through the Midwest, where the biggest threat isn't bobcats and foxes but freezing weather."

Well, I'm still holding you personally responsible for the appearance of the nine banders spotted in the Metropolis, IL area. And I'm wondering about the cougars now being spotted. An automatic camera snapped a picture of a cougar prowling near an industrial plant recently.
What are you sending us next? A mammouth? Great mystery book you wrote about that, by the way, one of my favorites of your mysteries. (Notice how easily I slid into that promotion of your book?)
- Bill said...
Thanks for the promo, Lonnie. To show my appreciation, I'll send you a few more armadillos.

Okay, before Valentine's Day a great number of people said they didn't plan to celebrate the day and that it was way better to do something special with your SO on another day. So... This being another day and having received inspiration for this question: if your SO told you to come with ideas of things you want to try (and they were very open minded) what would you do?

Is it really necessary to have a separate article for a single staircase. Seems a bit silly to me. This would be better of being part of the Hogwarts Castle article. Jayce Carver Talk 08:02, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- I think that the Hogwarts Castle article is a little packed. There are two many places and articles condensed into one. So, I think it and other articles like this should remain seperate. --ShirleyA(The Quibbler) 08:05, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
The article is supposed to contain all areas of the castle. That's the whole point. Having a separate article for a single staircase is just silly, we may as well have separate articles for each door or chandalier or statue. Jayce Carver Talk 08:31, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
I agree with Jayce Carver that is a bit silly. -- Hellabore(Deathly Hallows)
Exactly. There are 142 staircasses at Hogwarts, we can't have articles for all of them. Jayce Carver Talk 08:58, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
Perhaps a more general article then? How about just Staircases? Oh. But we have an article for the Grand Staircase don't we? ShirleyA(The Quibbler) 09:44, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
Behind the scenes
It once said in one of the articles that Harry Potter and Ronald Weasley were able to get as far as through the entrance to the girls' dormitories in the first film, after Harry, Ron and Hermione Granger's first encounter with Fluffy.
In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, after Harry, Ron and Hermione escape from Filch and Fluffy the Three Headed Dog, they are discussing the events of the night and all three of them walk up the staircase to the girls' dormitory. This error probably occurred because the film was made before the Order of the Phoenix book was written, and this is when the enchantment is first mentioned.
Question: How do we even know if it was the girls' dormitories?
Answer: Yes it was the girls' dormitories because there are no other staircases that are beyond the Fat Lady's Corridor.
Additional Question: Why was the information I read above updated, because as far as I'm aware, it removed valuable and valid information and / or clarification. -- C.Syde (talk | contribs) 00:19, September 26, 2014 (UTC)

Collison set for Hammers talks
Skysports.com understands Jack Collison is set to hold talks with West Ham about his future.
By Pete O'Rourke - Follow me on Twitter - @skysportspeteo
Last Updated: 06/06/11 3:09pm
Skysports.com understands Jack Collison is set to hold talks with West Ham about his future at Upton Park.
The highly-rated midfielder has two years to run on his current deal and he is keen to find out where his future lies following the club's relegation from the Premier League.
Contract talks over a new deal were halted last year as the player recovered from injury.
Collison returned from 14 months out with a serious knee injury to feature in the last three games of the season and he also appeared for Wales in the recent Carling Nations Cup campaign.
West Ham are expected to lose a number of their top performers following their relegation and a host of Premier League sides are thought to be monitoring Collison's situation.
The player's representatives are set to hold talks with the Hammers and new boss Sam Allardyce to discuss his future options.
