Seitz 6x17 Digital shoots at 160 megapixels

Seitz 6x17 Digital 160 megapixels

When we first spotted this new cam from Seitz, our jaws hit the floor and rebounded a few times. No, it's not the highest megapixel count we've seen, but this megalith of a camera shoots at 160 megapixels to create a native 6 x 17-cm image, is packed with an ISO range from 500 to 10,000, a read-out speed of 300MB per second, and a shutter speed of 1/20,000th second. So the next question is, how are you going to store such huge image files (nearly 1 GB per uncompressed full panorama), certainly not on your off-the-shelf 16GB SDHC card, nor the upcoming 64GB CompactFlash cards -- but rather via gigabit Ethernet to Seitz's "state-of-the-art computer system", which translates to a decked out Mac mini. So what will this much imaging power cost you? 45,500 Swiss francs ($36,266) for the "mobile version" and 42,300 Swiss francs ($33,715) for the "studio version", and we're assuming that the Mac mini is included for that price.

However, given that this camera isn't quite what you'd front for a down payment on a Swiss châlet, the 6x17 Digital surely must be affordable to average working-class Zürich banker set, no? You can catch a glimpse of this bad boy at the upcoming Photokina expo in Germany, or can throw down some serious Swiss coinage now to pre-order this gargantuan cam, which won't become available until early 2007.

White Pearl

White Pearl

White Pearl is the little sister of ‘Black Diamond’. Although it doesn’t look that good in white, it’s worth an honorable mention.
The White Pearl will in every way be the same as the "Black Diamond" just no Titan and no diamonds and will come in a pearlacent white colour which i prefer more than the black to be very honest,even though the black does looks good in its own way.


Specification:
Quad band with Wi-Fi an
Intel 400Mhz processor running windows mobile 5 a
262k TFT colour screen
Touch Sensitive 2"screen
Internal Memory: 128mb
External Storage: 2Gb SD card
Camera : 4 Megapixel

Since the White Pearl will come without the luxury add ons the price will reflect that hence it will only cost: $1,500 (£815.00) now thats music to my ears.
The White Pearl will be available early 2007.

The PENCK phone designed by Makoto Saito is one and a half years old, but it’s still the most beautful phone ever made.
The PENCK is available in three colors, metal, milk (white), and bitter (black).
Too bad it’s only available in Japan.
