Under pressure: Canon will soon launch new camera series to compete with Nikon
Just a day after Nikon Corp. released a new series of pro-class digital SLR cameras(DSLR) Canon also unveiles a new lineup of digital cameras including high-end SLRs (DSLR’s) and more.
According to Tokyo-based research group BCN, Canon has lost market share to Nikon in the last couple of years among customers in Japan. However, Canon still leads the industry and maintains a substantial lead over Nikon in global sales when it comes to midprice as well as high-end SLR and DSLR cameras. Currently the most anticipated DSLR by Canon in the pro segment is the EOS-1Ds Mark III. The top-of-the-line Canon features a 21.1-megapixel resolution and five-frames-per-second continuous shooting.
Nikon goes Full-Frame: New Nikon D3 announced
Wow, what e beauty! Finally, it’s here. After the longest period of speculation ever Nikon has today lifted the covers on their first full-frame digital SLR, the new 12.1 megapixel D3. The D3 is all about speed and sensitivity, twelve megapixels on a big CMOS chip means large photosites (8.45 µm pitch to be precise) and that adds up to base sensitivity of ISO 200 to 6400 with an additional two stop boost over that (up to ISO 25600). The other side of the speed story (apart from blistering AF and shutter lag) is that the D3 can shoot at nine frames per second with AF tracking or eleven frames per second without. Other headline features are a newly branded EXPEED image processor, a new 51-point AF sensor, color AF tracking, dual CF compartments (with UDMA support), an amazing 3.0″ 922,000 pixel LCD monitor with Live View (including contrast detect auto-focus), HDMI video output and even a virtual horizon function which can tell you when you’re holding the camera perfectly level. There’s too much to fit here so we crammed as much as we can into a preview. The D3 will be available in November, at around US$5000.
