More on the 22 Megapixel Sinar Camera
Back 06/15/2004 06:54 AM

Remember that 22-megapixel Sinar camera back from yesterday? Reader Jason Ozolins explains what makes peltier cooling on large CCDs so useful:

I think you'll find that the Peltier cooler on the Sinar camera back is not used to dissipate lots of internally generated heat (typical "leet overcloxor" use), but to keep the CCD sensor cold, which increases the signal to noise ratio, and allows them to get that incredible 14 usable bits of resolution per colour component.

It's been done with CCDs since the 1980s by astronomers; back then, making a 200Kpixel CCD was a hugely expensive proposition, so you might as well spend a few thousand more cooling the thing to wring the absolute most information possible out of its images.

22 Megapixel Camera Back from Sinar 06/14/2004 08:06 AM

Developed for Sinar by Kodak, the new Sinarback 54 M is a new pro-level camera back that captures with an impressive 22 megapixel sensor with 14-bit color depth. I didn't realize high-end sensors generated a lot of heat during operation, but apparently the Sinarback dumps enough that it has an integrated Peltier cooler to enable it to be continuously used. No idea on price; let's say 'spendy' for now. (Thanks, Lorenz!)

Another convergence device from Concord called the DV2020, this one revolving around a 2-megapixel camera that also records digital video or can serve as a webcam, as well as work as a voice recorder and MP3 player. It has 16MB of internal storage, which isn't going to get you very far as a video camera, but accepts SD cards for additional storage. It's not really going to provide high-quality anything, but for $230 or so it might be a nice thing to throw in a bag and have with you just in case.

Motorola has announced a CDMA version of the massively popular V3 RAZR, which means either Sprint or Verizon users should be expecting the phone at some point in the near future. Engadget played with the new model at CTIA and noticed it has a 1-megapixel camera, instead of the GSM RAZR's skimpy VGA sensor, which is good news for late adopters, I guess. Sadly, none of the new Motorola phones are quite as impressive as the RAZR. I was really hoping the SLVR models, as thin as they are, were thinner.

Taking The Camera Out Of The Camera

Taking The Camera Out Of The Camera
Phone 11/04/2003 07:06 PM
We've had a lot of stories in the last six months or so about shortsighted companies deciding to simply ban camera phones outright. In the past, I wondered if such rules would have an impact on mobile phone sales, but I didn't expect the carriers to jump on this topic so quickly. Put me in the same surprised boat as Alan Reiter to hear that carriers are convincing mobile phone handset makers to offer multiple versions of their phones: one with a camera and the other without. I really thought that with only a few companies overreacting and missing the point about camera phones, it would blow over, and a decade from now we'd be laughing at silly companies banning camera phones. At this rate, that might not be true. This is going to be a huge waste of money. Designing a new phone will take some money, and will create a phone that offers less value to the customer (and less opportunity for revenue for the carrier). However as camera phones begin to find more acceptance in the marketplace, people are going to get angry when their boss tells them the expensive phone they just bought can't be brought into the office. They're not going to want to buy the version without the camera if part of the reason they're upgrading is for the camera in the first place. This is a (costly) over reaction to a technology that will do nothing to stop the real problem (theft of corporate secrets or invasion of privacy), but will cost lots of money and anger many people.

"Japan's three major mobile phone carriers KDDI, Vodafone and NTT DoCoMo have all flagged new models boasting about 2 megapixels.This article states that 'the designs offer more than merely a few more pixels, though. Models of KDDI and Vodafone also come with auto-focus (AF) mechanisms, for example. Some camera-equipped mobile phones are featuring the equivalent electronic flash found in digital still cameras'. With the capacity of two megapixels and flash, 'photography with mobile phones will make major inroads into digital camera territory'.

Canon has released an updated PowerShot, bumping the A70 to the new A85, a 4-megapixel/3x optical zoom sidearm that also adds PictBridge comparability (for easy one-button transfer direct from camera to printer or portable hard drive). The A85 also ships with a 32MB Compact Flash card, which is a nice step up from the usual 16MB card most cameras are bundled with. It's about time we start seeing even low-end cameras with 32- or even 64-meg flash memory cards right out of the box.

Also, coffee at 5PM can not be mitigated with bourbon at 11PM. Good morning!

Nikon has finally announced the successor to their D1X and boy, does it look hot! Called the D2X (surprise!), the defining feature of the new DSLR is a 12.4-megapixel CMOS sensor that can shoot up to five frames per second at its highest resolution, but can also be bumped down to 6.8-megapixel to increase its framerate to 8 per second. In addition, Nikon has updated their Wi-Fi transmitter for the camera; the WT-2 has both 802.11b/g support and "Capture Control," giving you the ability to control the shutter of the camera from a PC or other mobile device.

LG's New 3.24-Megapixel Clamshell
Cameraphones 07/19/2004 09:56 AM

LG Electronics is providing a pair of 3.24-megapixel camera phones to SK Telecom (the LG-SD350) and KTF (the LG-KP2500) which use a mechanical shutter instead of a software technique to improve image quality. Also interesting is the fact that the handsets are clamshells, instead of candy bar phones -- the last 3-megapixel phone we saw, the Samsung SPH-2300, has a more traditional camera shape, although it has an optical zoom, as well. I would hazard a guess that the new LG phones do not (although these days, it's hard to tell).

Meanwhile, some of the phones in the US are starting to get 1-megapixel sensors. Wowsers!

The future is now. Unfortunately, the future is now in Korea, a land filled with a fine people and such, don't get me wrong, but a land that is also, clearly, not right here in my apartment. So with Samsung's introduction of a new 3-megapixel cameraphone, the SPH-2300, we Westerners have all been apparently flung backwards into the past, which is cool from a "countdown to death" perspective, but otherwise, you know, I'd rather just have my 3-megapixel cameraphone -- especially one with optical zoom, miniSD slot, and built-in flash.
