the G16 has a built-in stereo. that's pretty cool! come on

Mizouse 08-21-2013 11:23 PM

as nice as they probably are, im either getting an RX100mkII or a NEX5/6

srika 08-21-2013 11:25 PM

I don't know how I missed (forgot?) that the S series (S100, S110 and S120) are 24-120mm. That is quite cool it goes 24mm wide. :bored: (the S90 was 28-120mm)

srika 08-21-2013 11:27 PM

I think Canon was trying to do it Apple style with the release frequency of the S90, S95, S100, S110 and S120... annoying.

I have a feeling tho the next NEX 5 and 6 series won't have much improvement. There wasn't a big improvement from the 5N to the 5R either. The biggest improvement so far was from 5 to the 5N.

The RX100MkII having the tiltable screen is actually very cool. I can't imagine not having it on my 5N


anyways, sorry veering OT.

Canon Announces the Facebook PowerShot N

August 21, 2013

This is one of those products that should never have been developed………

Melville, N.Y., August 22, 2013 – To address the popular trend of instantly sharing photos and videos with family and friends, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today announced a new version of its uniquely designed PowerShot N digital camera – the PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera. A Canon Direct exclusive, the PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera features a convenient Facebook Connect Button that supports instant sharing of crisp, clear images and videos to users’ Facebook accounts.

Helping people’s creativity shine through, the PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera’s Creative Shot mode automatically creates a series of five artistic photos along with the original for an array of options that are ready to impress. With the convenient Facebook Connect Button and Wi-Fi® technology, the PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera connects the camera directly to users’ Facebook accounts, so they can upload, comment and share their most creative, detailed images while on-the-go.

In addition to offering powerful artistic and connectivity functions, the PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera features a 2.8-inch capacitive, tilt-touch panel LCD, allowing users to capture creative images at unique angles. With a shutter and zoom ring, both located around the lens, images can be snapped easily from the top or bottom of the ring so the perfect shot is always within reach.

The PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera offers an 8x optical zoom and a 28mm wide-angle lens, packaged with a 12.1-megapixel High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor and DIGIC 5 Image Processor. Users can also record high-quality 1080p Full HD video with a dedicated movie button. With Hybrid Auto users can automatically create a composite video of brief clips that are recorded while taking photos to give a creative overview of a day’s activities. The PowerShot N Facebook ready’s Face ID system allows for the camera to automatically recognize and focus on familiar faces. In addition, Canon’s Intelligent IS System allows the camera to automatically select the optimal image stabilization settings according to the shooting conditions, taking the guesswork out of identifying the ideal setting for each unique shot.

“At Canon, we are continually working to improve the way users share their photos and videos,” said Yuichi Ishizuka, executive vice president and general manager, Imaging Technologies & Communications Group, Canon U.S.A. “The new PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera, with the Facebook Connect Button, opens up a new dimension of photographic sharing and expression to help people showcase their personal style and creative flair with powerful innovative Canon technologies.

Wi-Fi Connectivity for Easy Sharing To make sure users can instantly share photos and videos with family and friends, the PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera now features a convenient Facebook Connect Button. After an initial one-time set-up, pressing the new Facebook Connect Button links the camera to the users’ Facebook account for quick and easy sharing. Users can also control the destination of their Facebook uploads by choosing to share content with everyone, or to select Facebook groups.

The PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera is also equipped with built-in Wi-Fi® technology, so high-quality images can be shared with friends and family even while on-the-go. Users now have the ability to comment on their uploaded photos directly from the camera – so starting a conversation on social networking sites is easy and convenient. Users can also instantly upload images wirelessly from the camera to CANON iMAGE GATEWAYi, and upload them to a computer remotely. Photos can also be printed wirelessly using Wireless PictBridgeii on select printers, including the Canon PIXMA MG7120 or PIXMA MG5520 Wireless Photo All-In-One printers.

The Ultimate Tool to Capture Creativity
Creative Shot, available on the PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera, is an easy, yet powerful tool to add artistic effects to photos. In Creative Shot mode, users compose their shot and let the PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera automatically create a series of five artistic photos along with the original to deliver creative new perspectives using different color modes, crops and styles. In addition, the new PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera offers 58 scenes of Smart AUTO and provides an 8x optical zoom to help users capture the ultimate creative shot.

A first-ever for the PowerShot line-up, the camera’s zoom lens and shutter are both operated on the camera’s dual-ring lens. By moving the dual-ring left or right users can control the camera’s zoom, and by pressing on the other ring users control the shutter, which can be released from the top or bottom of the ring, so managing the PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera is easy and effortless.

The PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera features a touch shutter, enabling users to start tracking a subject simply by pressing the intuitive touch panel LCD, and then capture the image by lifting their finger off the screen. For added flexibility, the image on the screen rotates with the camera – so people can capture even the most unique shot.

Sleek, Small and Designed for Portability
With a sleek and unique design, the PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera is ideal for quick on-the-go shooting. This camera features a 2.8-inch capacitive, tilt touch panel LCD, which offers 90 degrees of tilt, encouraging users to capture images from a wide array of angles and positions effectively in virtually any location. The top-mounted hinge keeps the PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera compact for convenient on-the-go shooting and easy, one-handed operation. The PowerShot N Facebook ready digital camera uses a Micro SD card to store images, and the camera can be easily charged with a USB cable while on-the-go, ensuring the creative process is never interrupted. In addition, the USB cable provides a quick and easy way to download videos as an alternative to the innovative Wi-Fi® options.

If the 5D3 has dual SD slots (I'm assuming it does), you can use the Eye-Fi card in one slot and the other slot can be a regular SD card for RAW or whatever

Mizouse 08-22-2013 01:16 AM

yup, its Eye-fi compatible and it has dual card slots, one CF one SD.

Mizouse 08-22-2013 01:18 AM

in case you forgot how the facebook powershot N looked like

Better than a print button. At least it'll get used.

Mizouse 08-22-2013 11:24 AM

It's because they want you to wait for the 5D4 or buy the wifi accessory :tongue:

Looks like Canon is trying to sell cameras. I just read somewhere that most pictures taken are taken with phones. :( I guess they have to compete somehow. :dunno:

srika 08-22-2013 12:11 PM

I'd use the facebook button. :hide:

Mizouse 08-22-2013 12:40 PM

I would too :sad:

srika 08-22-2013 12:46 PM

it would be like an excuse to post more photos - its like, it does it automatically so it reduces your involvement in the process. It's basically like a portable Instagram machine. Like a phone, without the phone part. :bitelip:

Mizouse 08-22-2013 01:30 PM

I'm gonna wait for the Sony qx10/100. See how those are. Basically a lens that you attach to your phone. Everything is controlled by the smartphone.

but that's only because everyone these days have cellphones. It doesn't mean those are good photos.

jupitersolo 08-22-2013 02:16 PM

Doesn't mean they are bad either. :shrug:

no, you're right... it doesn't. Because there are people that actually take the time to compose and what not (with their camrea phones). But millions of photos are taken by phones are random stuff, like the random duck lips shots in the bathrooms, or perhaps people at Home Depot taking pics of different lawn furnitures so they can show it to the spouse when they get home to decide... The point is...all those account for the millions and millions of shots taken each day, so of course camera shots are going to out number actual camera shots, because it's convenience. It doesn't mean shit to me

jupitersolo 08-22-2013 02:47 PM

D e f e n s i v e :hide:


There are just as many shit pictures on flickr taken with DSLR and P&S digital cameras as mobile phones. It doesn't matter...

Interesting. I can't think of any model it would be replacing, they just updated...

5D3, 6D, 70D, T5i...hmmm...

Upon looking at their lineup, I missed the 7D.

Maybe this is the 7D Mark II?

srika 11-08-2013 01:14 PM

oh true, could be 7D2!

dom 11-08-2013 01:20 PM

Or a new mirror less to replace the unloved M.

asianspec 11-08-2013 01:33 PM

i hope its not the SL2

asianspec 11-08-2013 01:34 PM

Remember rumors of a 3D

Mizouse 11-08-2013 01:53 PM

From CR


Whatever it is, I wouldn’t get too worked up about it. It won’t be a cool full frame mini camera, or a $1000 1D X replacement.
:rofl: at the $1000 1DX

stogie1020 11-08-2013 02:36 PM

Maybe they just made a nice sheet and wanted to show it off...?
