Panasonic unleashed the world’s smallest and lightest digital interchangeable lens camera. The mouthful title actually means that the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-G1 is a hybrid between digital single lens reflex cameras and traditional point-and-shoot digital cameras.

The LUMIX DMC-G1 employs the unique Micro Four Thirds system that eliminates the internal mirror structure of the camera therefore making it lightweight and more compact without losing superb image capturing capability.

The 12.1-MP camera can render images of up to 1.44 million pixels.

Aside from being the first of its kind, the camera also showcases other amazing features. It has a Live MOS Sensor which allows it to capture images in superb brilliance and clarity.

It also has an HDMI output and Venus Engine HD system, a technology that reduces noise in pictures while allowing customization of R, G and B colors of images.

It has the Supersonic Wave Filter Dust Reduction System that prevents dust accumulation in the image sensor, thereby protecting one of the most delicate parts of the camera.

The only sad news is that you will have to wait until October if you want to grab this camera.

Tamron, makers of quality camera lenses unveiled a unique ultra high power zoon lens that is hyped as the world’s first 15x stabilized zoom lens for Nikon and Canon SLR cameras.

While the category as to which the new lens belongs may not appeal to the general public, hardcore camera enthusiasts had long called for a high resolution and high magnification stabilized lens for modern digital SLRs.

The Tamron AF18-270mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC LD Aspherical (IF) MACRO (Model B003) is the first lens in the world to combine high zoom ratio and effective Vibration Compensation (VC) mechanism. This allows capturing of super detailed images without leaving a long telephoto setting.

Taking pictures in long distances is also made easier with the lens’ vast zoon-range and wide angle capability. Photographers will only need to turn on the zooming control.

The new lens also sports Tamron’s tri-axial Vibration Compensation system that reduces the effect of camera shakes in images. This makes taking pictures without the use of a tripod a breeze. The technology also has a strong implication on candid, sports and news photography.

The lens’ price is not yet disclosed.
