Pentax K-x DSLR Gives You 100 Colours and 100 Styles to Choose From – Looks Like a Benetton Ad

by Jay Garrett on November 26, 2009

Pentax_Kx_100_Colors_100_StylesYou go to buy a camera and chances are you resign yourself to it being a black box more often than not.

Short of taking your DSLR to a gadgety colouring specialist like Colorware you’d usual be stuck.

Sure – you can get red, silver, and some limited edition finishes but Pentax feels your pain.

You want, nay, need to express yourself.

To this end Pentax has recently introduced the new upper entry level DSLR camera Pentax K-x. Breaking away from the conventional black coloured bodied DSLR, the new K-x will come in a whole new range of colours. “Pentax K-x 100 colours 100 styles” provides you with 20 coloured bodies and 5 coloured grips to mix and match around with.

With the possibility of 100 different colour combinations, the K-x model certainly offers a uniquely customisable option to make you happy snappers.

Get your team colours, show your patriotism, flash your keen designery eye – just go crazy!

Here’s a spec list but hey – look at those colour combos!

All that’s left to say is that you can go get one now!

Samsung Release Camera’s For Facebook Self-Portraiture

by Jay Garrett on August 14, 2009

samsungst550_2Samsung added the very useful GPS to its ST1000 – I’m cool with that and it makes sense.

So, why have Samsung in their infinite wisdom slapped a haptic feedback enhanced touchscreen to the front of the new Samsung ST500 and ST550?

Yup, as well as the usual live screen on the back, these new cameras feature a small touchscreen at the front. This screen shows shooting information but will also allow you to compose pictures of yourself by simply tapping the screen.

Welcome to the ideal digital camera for the lonely MySpace/Facebook users that enjoy taking pics of themselves that enhance the chest area and of endless pouty close-ups.

Both cameras are armed with a 12.2 megapixel sensor and a decent-sized 4.6x optical zoom for when the camera is being used for things other than self-portraits. They both shoot 720p HD video.

The main thing that separates them is that the ST500 has a 76mm (3 inch) touchscreen on the back, and the ST550 is packing the 89mm (3.5 inch) display.

There’s no pricing or release info that I can find as yet but these cameras can only make Facebook and Myspace a less blurry and better framed placed :)
