The galaxy camera has a quad core processor and same specs as galaxy s3. It will cost above 30k easily. Simply useless.

yesterday read the review of sony RX100 at dpreview...its a nice cam...but cost is initially high as always with sony products
They say it can simply beat canon S100 in all departments. but the thing is these cams are used as secondary cam by professionals...coz amateurs will buy DSLR at that cost or a superzoom.

A few days back, we collectively trolled Leica for making Black and white cameras. However 2 days ago, while doing so googling for my blog post, I came across an amazing technology used in Leica M Monochrome camera - Non Bayer sensor
Conventional cameras even the high ends like D800E and 1DX use a Bayer sensor. Just for example a conventional Bayer MP sensor includes only 4Mp green, 2Mp red and 2Mp blue pixels, which are interpolated to 8Mpix R, G, B image.
A similar non bayer sensor uses true R, G, and B pixels. Advantage? Bayer matrix results in loss of 30-50% of the real resolving power of the sensor.
Although I lost the blog link, the 18MP images from Leica had equal or in some images had greater details than the 36MP images from D800E.
Interestingly Nokia 808 also uses oversampling to eliminate Bayer interpolation hence its 5MP images are very very detailed. But in most cases are under 2MB. Hence we get the resolution equivalent of 10-12MP images in a very small size. This is some amazing technology!

Hi! It's been two weeks. I was like hmmm... "held up" 
SX160 and SX500 cameras are listed in Canon site. Price of SX160 is nice and good but SX500 is too much. FZ47 is far better in spec comparison.
Some super duper deals on ebay. You can get D5100 under 28k (I think soon it will go out of stock...) D7000 for 65k

yaah I too saw those deals and they were just superb for new shoppers
ya i bought Sony wx50 for Rs 9200 for my sister...
these days i am not going out much so didnt get much opportunity to take pics...
i think we guys should suggests a topic every week and lets take some pics based of that topic..we all can post those pics in "photography thread"...the topic can be an object or idea or anything else...
what do you guys think...

Maybe a theme based friendly photo competition... weekly or fortnightly
Both Canon and Nikon have announced enthusiast-level full-frame DSLRs EOS 6D and D600. Both are priced around $2000. It seems that they have killed RX1 even before launch!
