Hasselblad bringing 60-megapixel H3DII-60 in April 2009 {Engadget}

Sep 25th 2008 5:35PM Would tend to agree that it does not belong on a DSLR. Main reason being they take sharp photos, whereas the best video is blurred images - which are easier on the eye during playback.

Then again, I can see that convergence may be possible.

I am still waiting for a true progressive RAW format that records the impact on the sensor as it occurs, letting you dial the image to a variety of points during the exposure time - and different parts of the image to different points . . . so you can compensate for high contrast situations (window in a room).


PS: I swear the reply box is not working when I do it directly . . . from the comment thread.

Sep 24th 2008 7:37PM Could swear I responded, but I could be wrong, or I could end up with a double post (but the comment response just took me back to the main page, which seemed wrong) . . .

@plothole:

The irony here is that the Ad I am looking at beside this response is for the 21.1 megapixel Canon EOS 5D Mark II with "Full-Frame, Full-HD video". I take it the EOS 5D is not a DSLR? I was pretty sure it was, but I could be wrong.

Assuming I am not wrong returns us to my previous question, does it have at least Full HD video? ;) Yes, I know the answer is No (and I agree with the reasoning behind that) . . . but the fact that the prosumer DSLRs now have it makes it an interesting question, in my not so humble opinion.

Power assisted Live Luggage ready to "world premier" {Engadget}

Jun 24th 2008 8:34PM If my luggage weighs more than 10lbs total, combined, per bag, maximum two bags, it weighs too much - wheeled, powered, or not.

This is ridiculous, nobody needs that much luggage unless they are moving.

Ask Engadget: Best backpack for traveling with gadgets? {Engadget}

Jun 20th 2008 1:48AM 100% Agreed! It doesn't look like a tech bag at all and it is safer (inner zippers rock)
