Sanyo launches three new 14 Mp digital cameras the T1495 have 5x optical zoom and the models E1500TP and S1414 have 4x optical zoom, The E1500TP have 3-inch touch panel that makes it easy to use. All three new cameras record video @ resolution of 720p. The manufacturer’s recommended retail price (incl. VAT.) is €129.00 for the E1500TP, €99.00 for the T1495 and €79.00 for the S1414. The digital cameras will be available starting in November
Versatile features and very easy to use – these are the key attributes of the three new digital cameras from SANYO. With their 14-megapixel resolution the E1500TP, T1495 and S1414 deliver not only brilliant pictures. The 5x (T1495) or 4x (E1500TP, S1414) optical zoom also accurately captures details. Photographers with little experience benefit from the many shooting modes, which place every subject in the right light. The E1500TP’s 3-inch touch panel also makes it easy to use the camera directly via the LCD screen. The three new cameras from SANYO record moving images with a video resolution of 720p. Thanks to their compact dimensions, the cameras are always at hand, ready to capture the best moments.
Simply creative
The new digital cameras from SANYO make every subject stand out. For instance, in the “Intelligent Scene” mode, they automatically recognise the ambient conditions and select the right resolution parameters. In addition, they will win you over with their very easy operation and various subject programmes. In addition to classic scene modes such as Sport and Night, the E1500TP and the S1414 also have creative settings like the Fisheye mode, which produces the typical semicircular fisheye effect, or the Lomo function, which lends pictures that certain extra something, with supersaturated colours and darkened edges.
The best part: Thumbnail images (with the E1500TP) or short explanatory text (with the T1495) clearly indicate at a glance which mode should be selected. That way, even less-experienced photo fans can find the right setting quickly and easily. Moreover, beginners benefit from additional functions, such as smile and face detection, red-eye correction or the digital image stabiliser.
Nice design
Sporting a classic aluminium finish, the E1500TP is an elegant companion for every occasion. The 3-inch touch panel also makes it easy to operate the camera via the LCD screen. The T1495 presents itself in a classic black design and smoothly captures also big motives and landscapes with its 26 mm wide-angle. The S1414 stands for ergonomic design and, thanks to its curved body, sits perfectly in the user’s hand even when shooting in fast-moving situations. Thanks to their compact size and low weight, all three modules fit into the smallest of handbags, which means it’s easy to take them along anywhere.
A long photoshoot? – No problem!
All three models save their data on an SD or SDHC card. The high-capacity lithium-ion batteries inside the E1500TP and T1495 supply enough power to take as many as 160 or 180 pictures, respectively. Powered by alkaline batteries, the S1414 can be tanked up at any kiosk, meaning that it is quickly back in action and ready for the next photo session. All cameras can be easily connected to a computer via a USB cable for the purpose of transferring data.
Pricing, availability and warranty
The manufacturer’s recommended retail price (incl. VAT.) is €129.00 for the E1500TP, €99.00 for the T1495 and €79.00 for the S1414. The digital cameras will be available starting in November in the following colours:

HASSELBLAD
Hasselblad has been exploring next steps in creating ultra-high resolution capture. Based upon new developments of its multi-shot technology Hasselblad labs are releasing test results from a new 200 megapixel capture device.
The 200 megapixel device is based upon a 50 megapixel sensor mounted onto the Hasselblad patented symmetrical multi-shot frame, which can accurately position the sensor with a sub-micron accuracy using piezo-electrical actuators.
Capturing 6 shots with the sensor positioned accurately at a sequence of quadrants of the basic 6-micron pixel, color information from the Bayer-patterned pixels is used to create a 200 megapixel capture. The color information is composed such that it supersedes the information from a single-shot captured with a potential 200 megapixel single-shot sensor.
Over the past years Hasselblad labs have refined the tolerances of the basic sensor frame calibration to achieve the above results, and on top of the physics new color algorithms and filtering techniques have been applied to achieve the 200 megapixel image. The complete capture device is now in final testing for stability and color accuracy to fit into Hasselblad’s unique generic one-profile color rendering.
Multi-shot cameras are used by studio photographers to generate images with ultra high resolution, and exact color information. Key customer segments include the world’s most famous museums and studios where cars, jewelry, and costly products are shot with an image quality leaving no room for compromise. Apart from its multi-shot, the Hasselblad H4D-50MS has normal single-shot mode included as well.
Upon successful testing, Hasselblad plans to release the new ultra-resolution capture mode for H4D-50MS cameras by early 2011. All current H4D-50MS cameras will be offered this new capture mode at the factory, by using our new calibration and firmware upgrade, at a fee to be announced in due course.
To view and compare the resolution and quality or our new 200 megapixel capture, please come and see us at our booth during photokina, at hall 2.1 stand A-021.
