Well it sure looks like the semi-annual Sorry, Your Camera is Obsolete! Season is upon us. Buckets of new Nikon, Canon, and Fuji digital point-and-shoots and SLRs are being announced this week, in advance of their actual unveilings, at the industry-leading Photo Marketing Association ’07 trade show March 8-11 in Las Vegas. One of the best places to get clear info about new cameras is DP Review. They summarize the model’s new features quickly, highlighting the improvements and design changes that might actually matter, before offering the maker’s press release, and enough pics to get a good sense of things. And of course they do a great job of following up with in-depth previews and then reviews of the most promising releases. DP’s preview of PMA, with info on 81 new products (so far) that have been announced in the past 7 weeks, is here.
The most intriguing looking model unveiled this week is the Canon PowerShot TX1 (pictured above), an Elphish-sized cam that wants to be held vertically, emphasizing its branding as an HDTV (1280×720 pixel, 30 frames per second) movie camera. It’s also got a 10x zoom with optical (not electronic) image stabilization. Yeah, we think we might want to test this kid out. Hello, Canon?
