Canon 5D Mark II Black Dot Problem

Earlier this month, first users reported seeing black dots when shooting at high ISO levels. Canon has now recognized the problem (illustrated in the picture above) and is investigating what's going on and how to fix it. At first view, the sensor is not the prime suspect, as it is used in other cameras that don't suffer from this black dot issue. We'll keep you posted when Canon will issue a fix, if at all.

ExtremeUSB Extends To 25 Miles

Just how long is your USB cable? The USB standard says that it should be no longer than five feet long, but the ExtremeUSB setup from Icron is able to reach a phenomenal 25 miles in length. Now that's pretty lengthy by any means, imagine working from home using this setup while remaining connected to the computer at your office! The whole idea of this would be for governments to run secure connections to distant cameras, and the setup doesn't really use USB. Instead, you will need to purchase plenty of boxes that will convert the USB signal to or from a proprietary signal, sending it over the wire/air/powerline. There is no word on pricing, but it ought to arrive at OEMs' doorsteps sometime early next year. If you like Ubergizmo... ...

RAZR Sequel to Disappear?

Electronista got hold of a tip that claims Motorola's RAZR line of phones may be coming to a halt. The tip included a photo of a prototyped codenamed "Ruby" that may have been the RAZR3. If the report is true, the reason for this action is unclear but could be related to the choice of OS. Previous reports have pointed towards Motorola using the Symbian related UIQ interface, but Motorola now plans on moving forward with Android and Windows Mobile. This news is too bad because we could have seen features like a five-megapixel camera with an LED flash, 3G, GPS, Wi-Fi and they even planned on shrinking the total footprint further. Remember this is an unconfirmed report, it may be a little while longer before we know what is ...

Nikon D3x Specifications

Nikon Pro has obtained the official specifications of the Nikon D3x (from this blog): 24.5MP sensor 5fps of continuous shooting at full resolution ISO 100-1600, extended to 50-6400 16-bit colors EXPEED processor (Body design and other functions similar to the Nikon D3) more details here There's no video-capture capability and photographers like Seb Rogers think that it's pretty late in the game, but I'm sure that Nikon fan will point out to many positive points. I don't know for other people, but I'm just an amateur with a taste for DSLRs and these days, the only thing that I want from my next camera is much better low-light shooting capability.

Samsung Sold More than 10 Million Camera phones , but What About Usage?

10 Million doesn't sound like much, but Samsung is talking about phones with a digital camera that snaps 5 Megapixels (and more) photos. Seen like that, it's not bad at all! However, when I see numbers like that, I have to ask: what's the usage like? Do people buy these phones because of the camera or do they buy it for something else and it happens to have a 5MP+ camera? Right now, it doesn't matter how many Megapixels (MP) phones have - the lens is pretty crappy, so pictures tend to be bad, with some notable exceptions. it's a bit like Bluetooth (BT). By now, BT is practically everywhere, but yet, a large majority of phone owners don't use it on a daily basis because it's not all that ...
