  • Pentax K-5, it’s nearly here

    It should be announced tomorrow by Pentax, but I believe that it is now nearly completely leaked. When the Photokina opens its doors, the Pentax K-5 will be clearly in the open and it will no longer be a rumor. The latest photos I found are: We can expect that this camera will be walking…

  • Sony A77: Latest news rumors

    Everybody expects that Sony will soon replace the Sony Alpha 700, the expert SLR camera of the Alpha line.

  • Nikon D95 or D7000?

    It seems a clear possibility now, seeing the number of comments about it. The replacement of the Nikon D90 that is expected to be announced by Nikon in a few days, before the Photokina fair in Köln, Germany, could be named Nikon D7000 (instead of the previously expected Nikon D95). We’ll see…
