New Camera Reviews Just Posted We've only had it for a short while but so far I am very impressed with Pentax's new *ist DS SLR, the latest entry into the under-$1000 category of 6-megapixel digital SLRs. For around $999 you get the camera and a nice 18-55mm zoom lens. It uses SD memory cards and runs on either four AA or two CR-V3 batteries. The *ist DS is currently the smallest and lightest interchangeable lens digital camera available and produces sharp and well-saturated images. I've posted the first set of sample images, the conclusion will follow in about a week with more sample photos. I see the *ist DS as a solid contender against Canon's Digital Rebel and Nikon's D70 and expect it to sell extremely well this holiday season. Also posted are full reviews of the Pentax Optio SV, a compact yet full-featured 5-megapixel, 5x optical zoom camera that comes with a handy charging stand. And the Pentax Optio MX4, the 4-megapixel update to last year's Optio MX, a hybrid digital still and movie camera with a 10x optical zoom lens. Check them out.

SanDisk Receives DIWA Innovation Award for Extreme III Amsterdam, 26. November 2004: DIWA (Digital Imaging Websites Association), a world-wide organisation of collaborating websites, today has the pleasure of announcing that the DIWA Innovation Award is granted to the new Extreme III series of SanDisk flash memory cards. The Extreme III cards use the newly developed ESP (Enhanced Super-Parallel Processing) technology. This is a groundbreaking development that provides the world’s highest read and write speeds up to a minimum of 20 megabytes per second (MB/sec.). High-end photographers are in constant search for fast storage products and SanDisk Extreme III is designed to fulfil this need. Beside significantly improved speed, the new cards also feature extended operating temperature range, enabling them to work under virtually any condition. The ESP technology combines NAND Flash memory chips and 32-bit RISC processing controller chips. The new ESP has super-parallel write and read operations that are coupled with accelerated flash data bus architecture, allowing twice the transfer speed of an average card on today's market. Thanks to this new technology, the flash card will no longer be the bottleneck during data storage, which was often the case in the past. The DIWA organization recognises the importance of this new technology and is therefore pleased to honour SanDisk's Extreme III product line with the DIWA Innovation Award.
