With the help of its half-mirror system the HFR Comfort-3D, Sony’s new/upcoming HD camera, does 3D with a single lens instead of two. With 240fps recording, we’ll sure see nice slo-mo’s in 3D!

A Cameraphone or A Phonecamera? The Samsung SCH-W880
Thursday, October 1st, 2009
This has been in the rumour mill for a while, but not it’s official. The SCH-W880 is the world’s first phone with 12MP camera and optical zoom. Samsung managed to fit in 3x optical zoom as well as 720p video recording capabilities into the decent looking shell as well as Xenon flash for capturing subjects beautifully in lower light conditions. The image recording capabilities of SCH-W880 opens the debate of whether the W880 is a cameraphone like its older siblings, or it belongs to a whole new category of devices, namely “Phonecamera”s. Korea will be first to find out, and it seems we’ll keep drooling for a longer period of time…

The New Pentax K-x in all its glory
Pentax today came out clean with their rumored K-x DSLR. The K-x is an affordable DSLR with some great features, some not present in its competition in this price range.
It features a 12.4 megapixel CMOS image sensor with sensor-shift Shake Reduction for stabilized image and video capture up to 4 stops max and a large 2.7- inch LCD with Live View feature for starters. Additionally it captures widescreen 720p HD video at 24 FPS to capture our love. Also uncommon for the price range, the K-x offers the True High Dynamic Range (HDR) image capture feature, blending 3 images with different dynamic ranges into a single picture “with outstanding shadow, highlight, and midrange detail”. 4.7 FPS image capture speed and 1/6000 second maximum shutter speeds are also worth mentioning about the K-x which has a price tag of $599.95 including an 18-55mm lens.
