Ricoh has released the CX4 compact superzoom with a 10 megapixel back-illuminated CMOS sensor. It offers the same 10.7x (28-300mm equiv.) zoom lens, 920k dot 3 inch LCD and 720p HD video recording as the company’s CX3, but with enhanced image stabilization. The company says its latest version reduces blur to a degree equivalent to using a shutter speed 3.7 EV faster than actually being used. Other features include subject-tracking AF and additional shooting modes.

Canon has launched the PowerShot S95 premium compact as successor to the S90. The latest model includes an upgraded sensor capable of 720p HD video recording and the company’s ‘Hybrid IS’ system that compensates for more types of movement. It also adds multi-aspect ratio shooting and SDXC card compatibility. Other than these features it inherits a lightly tweaked version of the S90′s basic body design including the control ring, 28-105mm F2.0-4.9 stabilized lens and 3.0″ LCD.

Canon have issued firmware updates for the EOS 1d MkIV and the Digital Rebel T2i. The updates mainly address an issue in which the set aperture moves unexpectedly when shooting movies in manual exposure mode using some Canon lenses (such as macro lenses). There are also some spelling corrections for the 1D MkIV!

Great new for the future of memory cards and the general convenience of photographers; Toshiba has announced the development of its first wireless SDHC memory card in conjunction with Singapore based Trek 2000.  In addition, the two companies will invite digital camera makers and other interested parties to join an industry forum to promote and share the technology with the aim of creating a standard for WiFi cards. The WiFi enabled 8GB SDHC card will feature 802.11 wireless transfer rates and support RAW file transfer. The cards will have to compete with Eye-Fi cards, first launched in 2007, that have seen increasing in-camera support from camera makers.

Digi-Quick.co.uk will be sure to have these wireless cards in as soon as they are available.  For our current range, please visit here: http://www.digi-quick.co.uk/Memory-Cards__C10
