CS 160 PG Antonia II

a Rafflecopter giveaway

Hi, this is Thomas from COSYSPEED.

It’s super cool that we can have one of our new CAMSLINGER models as a giveaway for your readers! I’m sure many of them would like this new concept of carrying a mirrorless camera (or Superzooms or smaller DSLRs aswell) on the hip or as a sling bag. It’s not a solution to transport large amounts of gear as the bags are on the smaller side, but for daily live when out shooting with smaller gear it will be a very quick and good solution.

Keep on going with your great blog and many thanks, Thomas

Panasonic CM1 1-inch smartphone camera review at DC.watch. Shipping in France and Germany!

Share

lumix_cm1

The most viral new announcement at Photokina was the Panasonic CM1. And it’s now for the first time in Stock at Panasonic France and also shipping in Germany via local dealers. The CM1 is a 1-inch sensor smartphone camera. It delivers the best Image Quality on any smartphones yet released.

We don’t know yet when the CM1 will ship in other countries but DC.watch got their hands on an unlocked camera and posted many image samples. Those are their thoughts:

– They found it cool that you can activate and use the camera without to have to enter the Pin code to get out from the sleeping mode
– Shutter button is well placed on top right of the camera
– It has the same Q.MENU as the Lumix series
– You can use the lens ring to control the digital zoom. You can also set the physical ring to control the aperture
– Autofocus is quick
– There is some issues with camera shaking at long exposures.
– Nice background blur
– Very good macro performance

Overall the reviewer is very happy with the CM1. Usability is high, Image quality unmatched by any other smartphone. He really hopes Panasonic will see this in Japan (and other countries) too starting from early 2015!

Panasonic CM1 is listed at Panasonic Germany, Panasonic Austria, Panasonic France.

First “serious” Kowa 8.5mm/f2.8 review.

Share
[shoplink 49544 ebay][/shoplink]

The Kowa 8.5mm f/2.8 is now shipping in [shoplink 49544 ebay]Japan (on eBay)[/shoplink]. And a very first KOWA 8.5mm/f2.8 review has been posted in Chinese at m43lens.blogspot.hk. These are the reviewers conclusions:

– Vignetting is about 1.5EV at maximum aperture
– Surprisingly very low distortion for such a wide angle lens
– Very good resolution
– a bit of purple fringing a wide aperture
– Has some Astral granular spots
