Sony RX0

Sony has officially announced their latest addition to the RX series of compact premium cameras .The RX0  (Zero) , like its more popular RX 100 series brethren , features a Stacked 1"  CMOS sensor , but it instead features a robust , drop (MIL STD810G)  and water resistant housing which allows the RX0 to be taken to places no other one inch sensor camera will dare explore .

The RX0 , on the outside looks quite small at - 61×40.6×30.5mm , but internally , the RX0 is designed for set events rather than straight up action as it can be rigged wirelessly in a 15 camera group  via FA-WRC1M remote  or  5 via the Sony mobile App for Android or iOS .

The unit , which can still perform as a stand alone camera will also function as a underwater upto about 10m and even more(100m) if you add a waterproof housing . This might sound good if you plan to shoot your diving expeditions , but keep in mind that this shoots only 1080p (1080p@250fps)(1000fps 720p bursts) internally and if you want everything in 4K , then be prepared to output 4K at 30fps to a external recorder via HDMI .You also get sLog 2 picture profile in this and everything is powered and rendered thanks to Sony's Bionz X image processor .

Rest of the specs include the ability to shoot 15.3MP photos with 16fps -  1/32,000 max shutter speed , and Max ISO - 12800 ,The camera features a Zeiss Tessar *24mm lens with a constant f4 aperture  .

So , how much for all this goodness you may ask? well ,according to reports , you will have to pay $1000 for this one.  It costs $699 and ships in October.

HTC One to sell as TD 101 at China Mobile

HTC decided to invest in such a brand by launching the One series of smartphones last year, although the company was not able to impose its own product names to certain carriers. Then, just a few days ago, the company launched the HTC One, which is going to be the company’s only One-branded handset this year, a make-or-break kind of project for the Taiwanese Android maker that’s still having a tough time fighting against the competition, especially Samsung. We were under the impression that HTC will further invest in its One brand and not budge to carrier demands anymore when it comes to changing the name of the product – in the U.S., AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile are going to sell it as the HTC One. But it looks like things aren’t necessarily so, and no, it’s not Verizon that’s going to get its way selling the One as the Droid DNA Plus, as it was recently rumored. We’re looking at China Mobile this time around, which has announced the HTC One as the HTC TD 101. That’s certa...
