Beta Alfa om Sony Ericsson

Man kan tro att kameratelefonerna skulle påverka försäljningen av digitalkameror i negativ riktning. Men en amerikansk studie visar att folk istället får upp intresset för digitalfotografering och vill ha en fullfjädrad kamera.

The study said that over 30 percent of camera phone owners plan to purchase digital cameras because they learned about digital photography through camera phones.

I samma studie framgår det även att folk framkallar allt färre bilder tagna med mobilkameran.

Isåfall kan följande tips vara användbara, från Max_Wedge på Esatos forum:

The cause of the white lines in low light photos of the K750 mostly comes down to the ISO setting. If you can keep it below 160 the white lines are virtually non-existant. The ISO value changes depending on the amount of light available, and the other settings (white balance and exposure sem to have some impact). Make sure you are using a manual white balance setting, I’ve found the auto setting isn’t always appropriate
The most effective thing you can do however is use night mode! funny that but it makes a huge difference to the lines.

Image without night mode, normal exposure

Image with night mode, marked improvement

Image without nightmode (iso 500)

Image with night mode (iso 160)

It’s still not perfect, but I find if I use night mode, the results are on par with what you’d expect of night shots from a low res cmos based digital camera.

The mystery man or woman who’s been collecting info, tips, and rumors about the Sony Ericsson P950 finally got the guts to post up those images they had of what is supposedly a prototype of the new smartphone. Nobody seems to know for sure whether or not these pics are the real deal, but all those threatening letters we’ve received from Sony Ericsson’s attorneys make us think that we’re on to something. Somebody over there is not at all pleased that these pics have surfaced, and usually companies don’t get all pissy over fakes.

I Japan släpper Sony Ericsson en ny modell vid namn Radiden. Namnet är en kombination av “radio” och “denwa” som betyder telefon. Den har ingen kamera men dock integrerad FM/AM/TV tuner, som gör att man kan lyssna även på ljud (ingen bild) från tv-stationer. Dessutom har den en skärm på vardera sida.
