Sony has unveiled the full-frame A850 DSLR along with some friends, like the mid-range A550 and A500 DSLRs. The A850 is basically a toned down A900 that keeps the 24.6-megapixel sensor and costs $1,000 less. It retails for about $2,000.

The A550 and A500 feature 14.2 and 12.3 megapixel sensors. The A550 will cost you $950, $1050 if you want a lens kit. The A500 will retail for $750 without a lens kit. All of these models lack video recording.

Samsung has a world’s first, with the 12.2 MP ST1000, which they are calling the “first multi-wireless compact camera”. It sports a 3.5″ touch screen LCD with 1.2 million dot resolution, WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS geotagging built-in.

Some other features include a 5x zoom, HD video recording (1280x720p), ISO 4800 sensitivity and a Smart Gesture UI that allows you to access things with a tap or hand gesture. We don’t have an official price or release date just yet, but rumors suggest that it will be around $600.

Taking pictures should be more like pew pew pew and less like click click click. The DORYU 2-16 Pistol Camera lets you aim and shoot the way you should, as if firing a pistol.

Apparently the DORYU 2-16 Pistol Camera was issued to police in Japan and it has the same C mount as a 16mm movie camera. The one in the photo features a Cine-Nikkor 25mm F1.4 lens. We don’t really know much else about it. Except that it will get you into some trouble at the airport, while traveling.

The Digidudes. The name sounds like some horrible tech show on local access TV. Digidudes are something much better. Much cuter. Dare I say adorable? There, I said it. DigiDudes are little dudes that not only look all cute, they also function as tripods for your compact digital camera.

Unscrew the DigiDude’s head, screw your camera onto his body and you have an instant mutant tripod. DigiDudes have three bendable legs to stay steady on any surface. Your choice of five characters: G-bling-Money-Son, iChomp, Pinky Scorsese, Snot Buster, and BoltBot.

Are all of your pictures crooked? Do you like to take photos while drunk? If you answered yes to one or both of those questions, this camera cube level will solve your problems and help you take great pics. Just pop the cube on top of your camera on the flash mount and you’ll always know exactly when it’s perfectly level.

This will help even the worst photographer get better. Great for when you are using a tripod too. It’s available now for $15. Snapping an even looking pic may not be rocket science, but some of us need help. So why not use a level?

Apparently it’s Hello Kitty’s 35th anniversary despite the fact that every year seems like an anniversary with all of the kitty branded crap that gets regurgitated onto the market like tasty gadget hairballs. This is not the first Casio digital camera we’ve seen carrying the face of HK, but the Exilim EX- Z2 is the first 12.1-megapixel version we’ve ever seen.

And what would it be if it were not covered in Swarovskis and dipped in pink? This Casio features a 2.7-inch LCD, and a 3 x optical zoom, plus it looks like the package comes with the following: a camera case, lanyard, and giant pink tribble thing.

When your Digital camera runs out of juice at the worst possible moment, it’s enough to make you want to scream. The Nikon Battery Grip can help. It holds six AA batteries which can be used to power your Nikon D200 through an adapter.

If you are a serious camera user, this one is a no brainer. Why chance missing out on that perfect picture? The Nikon Battery Grip will retail for £99.59 and save you a ton of frustration.

Today Joby announced their Gorillamobile tripod. This simple accessory attaches to nearly any mobile device, and supports it for mobile use. The tripod legs are made of dozens of ball joints that handle bending in any configuration.

The Gorillamobile can function as a tripod with the legs straightened, or the legs can be wrapped around other objects for use in unusual situations. For instance you can wrap them around the handlebars of a bicycle for use while riding.

What’s the big deal about this camera? It’s the only surveillance camera system in the world designed to send back captured footage over GSM cellular networks. So no matter where you are this baby will be able to send back photos to you so you can view them online.

Another interesting feature is that it has no wires and is cable free. Of course they had to make it somewhat rugged too. It’s virtually weatherproof. Even the look says rugged and ready to go.

Is that an Avatar Digital Binocular Sports Camera or are you just happy to see me? The Avatar Digital Binocular Sports and Spy Camera is from where else, China. It’s for the gadget lover who loves powerful magnification and is not afraid to use it in a silly over-the-top form factor.

It’s got a 2 megapixel camera with a 21× optical zoom and 2.5″ display. There’s 1 GB of internal storage, a microSD slot, TV out, a voice memo and you can record stills or video.

The new Hasselblad CFV-39 is custom built to match the design and functionality of Hasselblad V cameras and turns every V camera into an easy-to-use digital camera. The back is 39MP and the sensor is two times that of regular DSLRs.

It features two capture modes and new digital lens connection technology for Carl Zeiss lenses that are powered by Mac and Windows-compatible Phocus image processing software. All V camera systems are wirefree, the sensor is 100 percent larger than a full-frame 35mm DSLR camera, ISO range speeds range from 50 to 800 and H camera owners can gain full access to V lens DAC connection by using the CF lens adapter.

Pentax’s Optio W80 is the company’s toughest point and shoot camera yet. It’s also waterproof up to 16 feet underwater and it will survive drops from 3.3 feet and works in 14 degree weather. So if you are an adventurer looking for a rugged point and shoot, this one sounds like a good bet.

It’s arriving next month for $300. The available colors are Cardinal Red, Azure Blue and Gunmetal Gray. Pentax is also offering a custom designed clear protective skin for $16.95 along with a comfortable floating wrist strap for $19.95.

Pentax has released the Pentax K20D Titanium Limited Edition which features a 2.8-inch LCD screen, image stabilization and dust proofing. The original version of the Pentax K20D is available for $700, while the limited edition Titanium version costs a stunning $1199.

So you’ll be paying for that sexy sleek look. It also has a cool metal-wrapped battery grip that can hold some extra batteries. The 14.6MP DSLR will be available in Japan at the end of April 2009. Only 1000 units will be available.

Sony is preparing not one, not two, but three entry-level Alpha digital SLRs for a launch in the near future. A drop-down menu on the company’s UK support page gives it away, revealing the A330 and two lenses (50mm and 18-55mm) when choosing from cameras, plus an analyst’s Twitter update has also revealed the existence of the A230 and the A380. No details about either of these cameras.

Apparently the models are all direct upgrades to the A200, A300 and A350. The A200 and A300 have been entry-level models with fixed (A200) and swivel (A300) LCDs with 10.2-megapixel sensors and live view on the A300. The A350 has largely been a higher-resolution version of the A300.

The GH1 is looking seriously sexy in red and will be available April 24 in Asia for about ¥150,000. That’s roughly $1,500, which is a bit steep. It may be cheaper when it hits our shores, but that’s still a disappointing price.

The GH1′s video capture mode (The only thing that’s really different from its predecessor, the G1) does things that many others, like Nikon and Canon can’t: the cinema-friendly 24fps framerate at 1080p (60fps at 720p), as well as continuous contrast-based autofocus with a silent-focusing lens.
