OLYMPUS E-P2 LEAKS OUT AGAIN

We heard way back in August that an E-P2 could be on tap for a late 2009 release, and while it doesn't appear that the actual ship date will happen before next year, we'd be shocked if Olympus didn't come clean with its second Micro Four Thirds camera here soon. We've seen leak after leak after leak, and now we're staring at what appears to be a few press images of the not-yet-released camera. Reportedly, the 12.1 megapixel shooter will feature AF tracking, an electronic viewfinder, a black...

CANON EOS

Canon EOS-1D Mark IV lands for a pre-production hands-on. We've already seen some sample footage from Canon's new professional EOS-1D Mark IV DSLR (and should be seeing plenty more come December), but a pre-production version of the camera has now turned up at the Canon Pro Photo Solutions 09 show in London, and TrustedReviews managed to get an early hands-on with it. As you might expect, the camera definitely seems to impress in person, with the 1.2 kilogram body providing a feeling of "solid...

MAMIYA’S DM22 IS A MEDIUM FORMAT DIGITAL CAMERA

It can't be easy being the cost-cutter in a game as insanely expensive as digital medium format cameras, but after teaming up with Phase One for a $5990 medium format shooter (without lens), Mamiya is taking its own crack at the market with the $9,995 DM22. It comes with a Mamiya 80mm f/2.8 D Series lens, has a 22 megapixel sensor and can pump images straight out over FireWire if you think your RAW files are too good for a lowly CompactFlash card. It's also being introduced with a $14,990...

REMOTE SHUTTER RELEASE TO P-6000 AND P-7000 PHOTO VIEWERS FROM EPSON

Epson's P-6000 ($599.99) and P-7000 ($799.99) Multimedia Viewers were always a bit too rich for our blood, but those hemming and hawing might just have the final bit of motivation they need to pull the trigger. A forthcoming firmware update for the 80GB and 160GB (respectively) photo viewers brings along a hotly-anticipated new feature: tethering. Put simply, pro shooters (and novices, we guess) can now connect select Nikon and Canon DSLRs to their photo viewer via USB, and in real time shots...

CANON EOS

The word on the street is that the Canon EOS 1D Mark V will be announced tomorrow to coincide with Canon's 50th SLR anniversary. If you wonder why the Mark IV version was skipped, some explain it by the fact that it is an unlucky number in Japan (so the next PlayStation will be PS5?). Here are the specifications that one can find on the web (unconfirmed, but usually correct): 16Megapixel APS-H sensor 12fps burst 1080p 24,25,30,60fps video 19 auto-focus points Pro photographers are said...
