Its first product is the Aptolux MP-1, a modular, transforming LED light that can be as compact as a lunchbox when not being used yet deliver bright, efficient light. Sony's latest a7-series model is the most capable yet, but also the most expensive. We've been using Panasonic's new Lumix S 35mm F1.

Panasonic has announced the Lumix S 35mm F1. Panasonic has released firmware version 1. The Hubble Space Telescope is in safe mode as engineers work to investigate what's wrong with the telescope's onboard instruments.

This is the second time the venerable telescope has faced extended downtime after being offline for a month earlier this year. Panasonic China has posted a pair of images to various Chinese social media sites that tease what appears to be a new lens launch.

Gordon Laing is back at it again with another Retro Review. I far prefer a hot red point of light to indicate the chosen focus point, which would only disappear against a specific background of Christmas lights. I've never been fond of the multi-step method necessary to zoom on a Nikon, but once you've started it goes very easily, making moving around the image pretty simple.

My least favorite Nikon feature has always been the LCD cover. It's always fogging up and bulges out from the back of the camera too much. Fellow Editor Mike Pasini pointed out that though I've never scratched an LCD before, many people do so with their shirt buttons and jacket zippers. Since I don't use a neckstrap on cameras, preferring to carry them in my hand, it makes perfect sense that I'd not understand the LCD cover's function. The good news is that the cover on the D has been redesigned to lie flatter, and its sides are closed so it doesn't fog up as easily from your breath when holding the camera up to your eye.

Because the LCD is so big, Nikon has been forced to make its profile slimmer and less noticeable, so it doesn't ugly up the back like the cover on the D Doors Nikon still hasn't decided what mechanism to use for their CF card doors. The D2x, D70, D50, and D all have different designs. Each is just fine, but I like the D's because it is practical, seals well, and its mechanism is sure in both directions. You cradle the camera in your left hand, swing the release switch on the back of the camera, and the door swings open from the right.

It opens swiftly, but with a soft sound, because there's a large rubber bumper on the inside of the hinge area to catch it. When it closes, the door mounts flush, and it cannot be opened accidentally like some other designs. The battery door is less inspired. It should be more secure, and have a latch to hold the battery to prevent it from falling free. As it happens, however, there's a little wire running along the inside of the compartment with a bend that catches the battery after it falls out half an inch, forcing you to remove it all the way with a pull.

It's arguable that this might be a faster method to change batteries, though I do wonder how well it will work after repeated use. It's solidly built, handles well, and has logically thought-out and arranged controls. It's a joy to shoot with, its exposure metering and point AF system both performing with speed and accuracy. Tonality and color are both excellent, and the camera just seems to deliver more "keepers" per shoot than many others I've handled.

The only issue that keeps me from a completely over-the-top response to it is the "Corduroy Effect" that we saw under certain very specific circumstances in response to strong light overloads.

While we don't yet know the outcome, Nikon is apparently investigating this issue, so what you see below will almost certainly not constitute the final word on the matter. The D ships with the Nikon Picture Project software, which provides basic manipulation and cataloging capabilities for images captured by the camera, and which can interpret the raw CCD format "NEF" files.

A much more advanced package called Nikon Capture is available separately. Users will also want to check out the third-party applications Bibble and Qimage Pro , both of which offer enhanced interpolation of NEF files, for even higher image resolution.

The Nikon D is hard to compare on an equal footing with the rest of the current dSLR field, as it really establishes its own category of affordable well, relatively so professional dSLR.

From our testing, there's no question that the much higher-priced models beat it handily in several areas, but the D holds its own surprisingly well, and has build quality that takes a back seat to no one.

Very significantly, it's by far the least expensive dSLR on the market with full environmental seals, something that sets it apart from any cameras selling for less than twice its price.

Within Nikon's own lineup, it competes surprisingly well with the D2Xs. Relative to the Canon 30D, it holds a slight edge in image quality, but opens a vast gulf in build quality and features. The Canon EOS-5D beats it handily in the image quality arena, but the D still wins hands down on the build and feature fronts.

The D reacts with lightning speed, powering-up in a mere 0. It can shoot five frames per second with a drastically shortened viewfinder blackout time of just milliseconds between shots. Its large, bright viewfinder offers 0. The D embodies a host of intelligent technologies that deliver remarkably precise control and accurate automatic features. Capturing scene elements including brightness, contrast and color content with a unique 1,pixel RGB-enabled sensor, this advanced system employs further improved algorithms for even better evaluation of large area highlight and shadow detail.

The 3D Color Matrix Metering II light metering system also uses an onboard database of detailed exposure information from over 30, actual images against which instantaneous real-time comparisons are made as part of determining exposures.

Rather than merely looking at light levels, a complex, yet transparent evaluation of overall scene content takes place, ensuring highly accurate exposures, even in challenging lighting conditions.

The Not only does this AF system support the photographer with fast and precise auto focus under a variety of shooting conditions, but it also offers a pleasing array of functions for greater flexibility — allowing an individual area to be selected from either the area AF or 7-wide area AF sensors for Single AF or making use of multiple sensors to enable Dynamic AF, Closest Subject Priority Dynamic AF and Group Dynamic AF.

It also displays the total number of shots taken on each charge as well as overall life of the battery, so photographers can easily tell when to replace a battery. The Commander Mode in the D can adjust flash compensation settings for each of the two groups on the fly, making light output control from speedlights placed in hard to reach locations simple and effortless.
