Based upon the S9100, this camera allows infrared photography without the normal filters needed with most digital cameras. Instead - to use it as a normal digital camera you need an infrared 'cut filter'.

The Fujifilm Finepix IS-1 has a 10.7x optical zoom, 9 megapixel super CCD HR sensor and ISO of up to 1600.

Fujifilm continues to lead in the area of alternative light photography with today’s announcement of the IS-1 digital camera, Fujifilm’s latest model for capturing images in the infrared light spectrum.

TAKE GREAT PICTURES WITH ALL-IN-ONE FUJIFILM FINEPIX F40fd

8MP Super CCD, ISO Equivalency Speeds Up To 2000 and Face Detection Technology

The A610 has an ISO range of 100-400 and is compatible with both SD and xD cards to back up its 10 megabytes of internal memory.

It is now easier and more affordable than ever for consumers to capture high-quality, natural-looking photographs at the click of a button. FUJIFILM U.S.A. Inc. today raised both the picture-taking and purchasing power of first-time digital camera buyers with the launch of two new models, the six-MegaPixel FinePix A610 and eight-MegaPixel FinePix A800.

More than half of all digital camera purchases in 2006 were made by first-time buyers. Almost 60% of these first-time purchases totaled less than $200*. Designed specifically for the first-time digital camera buyer or consumers seeking an easy-to-operate upgrade to their current digital camera, Fujifilm’s A-Series models provide users with a choice of digital cameras that offer top-notch image quality at consumer-friendly price points.

The FinePix A800 is the first model in Fujifilm’s A-Series line-up to sport an eight-MegaPixel Super CCD Sensor and the first to incorporate light sensitivities of up to ISO 800 at full resolution. Borrowing a page from Fujifilm’s more advanced camera models, the FinePix A800 shoots at higher light sensitivities with less noise than comparative models. This results higher quality “natural light” photos and less blur in images as the FinePix A800 matches these higher light sensitivities with faster shutter speeds.

Fujifilm’s A-Series digital cameras are among its most popular models and the FinePix A610 should help continue this trend. This camera has the same comfortable design as the FinePix A800 and is priced right for the first-time digital buyer. In a first for Fujifilm’s compact digital camera range, the FinePix A800 and A610 both feature a “xD/SD Compatible slot”, which accepts not only Fujifilm’s traditional xD-Picture Cards, but also Secure Digital (SD) cards.

The Fujfilm Finepix A800 comes complete with 12 megabytes of internal memory and xD card slot but it is also compatible with SD cards (something new for Fujifilm). It's powered by AA bateries and measures 96.5 x 61.0 x 30.5mm (weighs 150 grams).

The Kodak EasyShare V1233 is the last of 3 mistakenly announced digital cameras from Kodak today. Here are some of the V1233's listed features.

Kodak EasyShare V1233 features

• Crisp shots and stunning video, made simple. Experience it.
• 12 MP for stunning prints up to 30 × 40 in. (76 × 102 cm)
• 3X optical zoom lens
• True HD quality: stunning pictures and videos
• Face detection technology locates faces and automatically adjusts the camera settings.
• TrustedReviews has posted their review of the Kodak EasyShare V1233 where they write - 'While the V1233 is a well-made, elegantly designed and easy-to-use camera with an attractive price tag for its specification, the woefully slow performance and inferior image quality make it a poor choice. If you really have to have a 12 megapixel compact (why?), then there are better ones on the market for not much more money.'

Two additional zoom digital cameras in the KODAK EasyShare M-Series line are the M873 and M883, both offering 8-megapixel resolution and high ISO settings.

While maintaining its sleek design, the M883, with built-in face detection technology, allows consumers to view their pictures and videos on a huge 3-inch LCD screen. The all-metal bodies of the M873 and M883 come in silver and black with the M883 also produced in red.

Trusted Reviews has reviewed the Kodak EasyShare Z1275 and writes - 'The Kodak EasyShare Z1275 is a camera with a number of problems and few saving graces. It is heavy and bulky for a compact, build quality is below average, it lacks any real image stabilisation for its longer-than-average zoom range, and its performance and image quality are well below par. The HD video mode is potentially useful, the lens is very good and the asking price is relatively low for a 12MP camera, but I'm afraid that isn't enough to save it. The possibility of a crippling technical problem is the final nail in the coffin.'

The KODAK EASYSHARE M753 and M853 Zoom Digital Cameras are equipped with 3x optical zoom lenses and 7- and 8-megapixel resolution respectively, which allows consumers to print clear, crisp images up to 30” x 40” in size. Memories captured with the KODAK EASYSHARE M-Series Cameras are displayed on a vibrant 2.5-inch LCD screen, perfect for instantly sharing clear, bright pictures and videos whether inside or outdoors. 

The Kodak Easyshare C613 is a 6.2 megapixel compact digital camera from Kodak which features a 3x optical zoom lens.

The Kodak Easyshare C613 is aiming at the lower end of the market.

Kodak describe it and it's big brother (the C763) as follows in their press release today:

"Two additional digital cameras are announced today, including the KODAK EASYSHARE C613 Zoom Digital Camera with 6.2 megapixel resolution and 3X optical zoom lens in a compact and stylish body; and the KODAK EASYSHARE C763 Zoom Digital Camera with 7 megapixel resolution and 3X optical zoom at a truly affordable price point.

The Kodak Easyshare C763 is a 7 megapixel compact digital camera from Kodak which features a 3x optical zoom lens.

Kodak describe it and it's little brother (the C613) as follows in their press release today:

"Two additional digital cameras are announced today, including the KODAK EASYSHARE C613 Zoom Digital Camera with 6.2 megapixel resolution and 3X optical zoom lens in a compact and stylish body; and the KODAK EASYSHARE C763 Zoom Digital Camera with 7 megapixel resolution and 3X optical zoom at a truly affordable price point.

CNET has a review of the Kodak EasyShare V1003 and writes, "noise and artifacts plagued the V1003's images, softening and obscuring fine details. Photos shot at settings as low as ISO 400 displayed notable amounts of grain, which only grew worse at higher ISO settings. At ISO 1600, static-like speckles completely covered the image, softening all but the largest and most prominent details and rendering it almost completely unusable. ... If you want good-looking, high-resolution images, then choose substance over style, spend a little more, and consider the less stylish but much more reliable Canon PowerShot A640 or SD1000 cameras. They're not as colorful as the V1003, and the SD1000 has 7.1 rather than 10 megapixels, but they're much better designed and offer better image quality."

The C653 features a shutter speed range of 4 to 1/1400 second and an ISO range of between 80 and 1250.

The 7.1 megapixel camera boasts best-in-class click-to-capture performance (0.26 sec.) with superb picture quality at an affordable price, making it a solid alternative to digital SLRs.

Megapixel has a review of the Kodak Z712 IS and writes, "The Kodak EasyShare Z712 IS is good value for the money. The compression at the highest image quality is a bit stronger than we would like, and the LCD monitor not as crisp as some others. But the camera's capacity to reproduce colours faithfully and the generally good characteristics of the lens, and the fact it includes a very effective stabilization system make it a worthwhile camera."

Pocket-lint has a review of the Kodak EasyShare V803 and is not impressed, giving the camera a 5/10 rating: "Focusing (in macro mode – or any other for that matter) is fantastically slow. ... Once the focusing has finally got it right, continuing to press the shutter to take the shot results in … a further delay while the camera gets going once again. What it is waiting for at this stage I’m not sure, suffice to say, any chance of a spontaneously snapped shot is almost impossible. ... if you need to use the flash as well, the delays only grow even longer as the flash recharge cycle takes half a second and the double pre-flash (used for exposure setting and white balance calculations) means that the subject (if a person) usually tends to think the shots taken and moves off before the actual third “exposure” flash fires. ... while it looks nice, is well made, has some nice features, and is simple to operate, its problems with all those frustrating delays means, in the end, I cannot recommend this camera."

Unique functions for the COOLPIX S560 help make it easier to shoot beautiful portraits and faithfully record precious smiles.This has been said by many digital camera reviews Smile Mode automatically releases the shutter when the selected subject smiles, helping to faithfully record precious smiles in the brief instants they appear. The Smile Indicator, activated via Portrait mode, displays a gauge that changes when a smile is detected. And Blink Warning displays a message when it detects that a subject has blinked, offers quick magnified visual confirmation, and allows the shot to be retaken immediately and get the desired results.

Practically defying their ultra-compact dimensions, the COOLPIX S610c and S610 each feature a large 3.0-inch LCD monitor with a wide-viewing angle of 170 degrees and anti-reflection coating. And they combine that with 10 megapixels of sharp resolution, a 4x Zoom-NIKKOR lens capable of 28mm wide-angle shooting (35mm format equivalent), and optical VR image stabilization to deliver outstanding image quality. Reviews to follow.

ISO 3200 support adds the power to shoot sharper, more natural-looking photos in lower lighting conditions and to capture fast-moving subjects with outstanding clarity. When shooting with high ISO settings, the new image-processing system dramatically improves the ability for clearer results and minimal noise.

It features a 3x optical zoom lens, 2.4 inch LCD display and is powered by 2 AA batteries (which Nikon claims can take 1000 or so shots).

PANASONIC UNVEILS WORLD'S FIRST* 12.2 MEGAPIXEL DIGITAL CAMERA WITH 28mm WIDE-ANGLE .

Intelligent Image Stabilization, a feature across the entire 2007 LUMIX digital camera line, incorporates the industry's most advanced countermeasures against blurring. This system comprises two features - MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilization) and Intelligent ISO Control. Together the features make it easy to capture beautiful photos by compensating for the effects of hand-shake and image movement, making it possible to take clear, crisp photos anytime, in any mode. 

The LZ6 is fairly much identical to the LZ7 except for it's 2.0 inch LCD (.5 of an inch smaller than the LZ7).

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ6 also features image stabilization (optical and ISO).

All new Lumix models, including the DMC-LZ7 and DMC-LZ6, incorporate Intelligent Image Stabilization, a new camera system that comprises MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) and Intelligent ISO Control, together making it easy to capture beautiful photos every time you shoot. With Intelligent Image Stabilization -- MEGA O.I.S. to compensate for hand-shake plus Intelligent ISO Control to prevent motion blur -- Panasonic has taken image stabilisation a leap forward and equipped the new Lumix DMC-LZ7 and DMC-LZ6 with the industry's most advanced countermeasures against blurring.

In addition, the new DMC-LZ7 and DMC-LZ6, which feature impressive bright 2.5-inch and 2.0-inch LCDs respectively, are equipped with the Panasonic Venus Engine III image processing engine that gives them even higher image quality and speedier processing than before. The Venus Engine III, which in the past was offered only in the higher end Lumix models, records at a sensitivity setting as high as ISO 1250 with full resolution, and aids in noise reduction by removing picture noise removed in stages during image processing. And, with its multi-task image-processing capability, the Venus Engine III boasts outstanding response time with shutter release time lag as short as 0.005 second. This fast response makes it easy to capture sudden, spur-of-the-moment shots, and allows for unlimited consecutive shooting.

Panasonic, a leader in standardizing optical image stabilization across its full camera line with Mega Optical Image Stabilization (MEGA O.I.S.), now adds Intelligent ISO to create the Intelligent Image Stabilization System. While MEGA O.I.S. compensates for the effects of hand-shake, making it possible to capture clear, crisp photos indoors, at night, or when taking macro close-ups, it cannot suppress the motion blur caused by a subject moving as the photo is taken. With Intelligent ISO, the camera's image-processing engine detects if the subject is moving and automatically raises the ISO setting and shutter speed according to the light conditions and the speed of the movement.

"Consumers want compact, easy-to-use cameras that take crisp, clear and beautiful pictures all the time," said Alex Fried, National Marketing Manager, Imaging, Panasonic Corporation of North America. "At Panasonic, we aim to deliver just that by offering a full line of cameras - from compact to SLR - eliminating the effects of hand shake and motion blur with the Intelligent Image Stabilization System, which offers the industry's most advanced countermeasures against blurring."

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ2 features largely the same feature set as the TZ3 including the 10x optical zoom but in addition to the smaller megapixel image sensor it has a smaller LCD screen (2.5 inches).

The Ultimate Companion for All Your Photographic Needs

Panasonic Lumix cameras go from strength to strength with technological advancements designed to offer the ultimate in picture performance and convenience. Panasonic’s new DMC-TZ2 and DMC-TZ3 are the latest members of the award-winning Lumix TZ family of digital cameras, which is renowned for packaging a remarkable 10x optical zoom in a compact, stylish body. To further add to their appeal, the TZ2 and TZ3 go one step further to feature a 28mm wide-angle Leica DC lens (equivalent to 28-280mm on a 35mm film camera) for wide-angle shooting.

It features a lens with the equivilent of 28-200mm and comes with a large 3.0 inch LCD screen. It allows shooting in a variety of aspect ratios (4:3, 3:2 or 16:9) and has an ISO range of up to 1250. This camera features the LSI Venus Engine III processor.

The entire 2007 Lumix spring digital still camera line incorporates the industry's most advanced countermeasures against blurring with the introduction of Intelligent Image Stabilization. This system comprises two features -- MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) and Intelligent ISO Control. Together the features make it easy to capture beautiful photos every time users shoot by compensating for the effects of hand-shake and image movement, making it possible to capture clear, crisp photos anytime, in any mode.

"The Lumix DMC-TZ3 is the successor to the extremely popular DMC-TZ1, and the perfect camera for anyone with an active lifestyle. It combines a host of must-have features into a compact, stylish body ideal for slipping into your coat pocket or travel bag," said Alex Fried, National Marketing Manager, Imaging, Panasonic Corporation of North America.
