TVS Digital Camera
Price: $899.95
Incorporating a 5 megapixel CCD, the Contax TVS Digital combines the superior optical quality from a newly-designed Carl Zeiss T* Vario Sonnar lens with the cutting-edge technology that Contax is famous for. Developed from the line of already legendary Contax series cameras, the Contax TVS arrives as the first "Boutique" digital camera offering enduring beauty and outstanding performance. Combine the silky smooth titanium covers, an exquisite sapphire release button with the Carl Zeiss T* lens, and you can expect the ultimate in digital photography. Your images will be tack sharp with saturated color not available from any other image capture device. The Carl Zeiss T* lens provides the ability to capture every nuance of light, color and gradation available from nature. The on-board 5 megapixel CCD transforms the light into stunning photographs unlike any other.State-Of-The-Art Lens DesignThe Carl Zeiss T* Vario-Sonnar 7.3~21.9mm zoom (offering the equivalent view of a 35~105mm lens in 35mm format) offers 3X optical and 4X digital zoom. The latest technology in lens design is standard on the Vario-Sonnar. Three aspheric surfaces are incorporated in this six-element design. The T* anti-reflection coating is applied to each lens element, dramatically reducing flare and increasing contrast and sharpness in your photographs.Multimedia and SD CardsThe TVS Digital exploits the advantages of both Multimedia cards (MMC) and Secure Digital (SD) memory cards. This media is especially suited to the compact design of the TVS Digital and is easily shared with other electronic devices such as Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) and cellular telephones for storage and transmission of images and data.USB/Video ConnectionTransfer of your images to a computer is easy with the built-in USB port and supplied USB cable. Video output is also possible using the video out plug and supplied video cable to connect the TVS Digital to a monitor or VCR. A DC in port and AC power supply is included to power the TVS for extended shooting or viewing.Immediate AccessThe top of the TVS Digital provides instant access via the command dial for the AVI movie mode, two exposure control modes (Aperture priority or Program control), image review and main setup menu. The top LCD Information Center provides feedback about the flash mode selection, remaining pictures on the installed memory card, manual focus feedback, macro mode and battery condition.Durability Many of the unique features found on Contax T series cameras have been carried over on the TVS Digital. Starting with a titanium body, stronger than steel and lighter than aluminum, it ensures durability along with elegance. A diopter control is built-in to adjust the viewfinder for your needs. Sapphire glass viewfinder covers provide scratch-resistant protection to help keep the TVS Digital looking like new, even after years of use.Carl Zeiss T*- The World's Finest OpticsCarl Zeiss T* anti-reflection coatings ensure the virtual elimination of unwanted reflections inside the lens. This means that only image-forming light reaches the image plane of the camera. Your photographs will have greater impact due to higher contrast, deeper color saturation, more shadow detail and cleaner, crisper colors. Each of the seven layers of the T* anti-reflection coating is optimized for a portion of the total bandwidth of white light and together the seven layers cover the entire visible spectrum. The thickness of each coating layer is 1/4 wavelength of the frequency of light that the layer is dedicated to. Light is phase shifted 1/4 wavelength as it passes through the coating the first time. If the photon is reflected, it passes through the anti-reflection coating again and as it passes, it is phase shifted again 1/4 wavelength. Now, the reflected photon is 180 degrees out of phase and it is annihilated. Carl Zeiss invented anti-reflection coatings and their continued dedication to the elimination of internal reflections is complete. T* optical coating represents the most advanced optical technology available. It is so good you can see the difference. And T* coatings are only available on Carl Zeiss lenses.New DayFine LCDOutdoor LCD viewing has often been a problem in the past. That is until Kyocera pioneered a new technology which has been incorporated into the new TVS Digital. The new DayFine 1.6" TFT color LCD makes it easier than ever to view images or subjects while outdoors in very bright conditions. Utlizing "Dual Backlight" design, a new special optical film increases the transmission of light from the LCD. In addition, the ambient light is used to increase the intensity of the image displayed on the LCD. This increases the brilliance and contrast of the LCD, even under the brightest outdoor conditions.Dual Set-up Command ModesThe well-designed layout provides quick access to the menu items you want to control. Two set-up modes for customization allow the user greater control over camera functions. Set-up "C" changes camera functions (Flash mode setting, change of exposure compensation range, etc.) while Set-up "D" changes digital functions (electronic tone, electronic zooming, startup screen setting, etc.). Another feature of the TVS Digital is a customized startup screen, which is similar to a desktop PC. The user can choose an image taken with the camera to be displayed on the screen each time the camera is turned on. An AVI movie mode is also featured on the new Contax TVS Digital and can hold up to 30 seconds of high quality digital video.For the user who wants to be a part of the picture, the included RC-1 Remote Controller makes it easy.

Added to these critical elements are a host of high-performance capabilities that offer advanced amateurs a new level of flexibility: an extensive array of shooting modes and functions, intelligent automatic systems, and sophisticated manual controls. Unsurpassed Image Quality - Designed to create professional-level finished work, the PowerShot Pro1 is equipped with the most powerful, advanced lens in the PowerShot line. In fact, the Pro1's debut marks the first time a fluorite lens has been used in a PowerShot digital camera. The fluorite lens (a direct result of Canon's decades-long pursuit of the ideal lens) gives clear, sharp image delineation which other optical glass cannot match. Paired with UD (Ultra-low Dispersion) glass, the lens achieves the absolute minimum in chromatic aberration. An Aspherical lens is also incorporated. Precision-manufactured to within 0.1 microns via a software program Canon developed, it corrects spherical aberrations and curvilinear distortion while keeping the zoom lens compact. The 7x zoom lens' focal length ranges from the wide-angle 28mm to the telephoto 200mm level (in 35mm film equivalent) to handle everything from snapshots, landscapes, portraits and sports scenes with ease. The zoom is powered with an Ultrasonic Motor for fast, silent performance. In addition, Canon technology allows the lens to achieve exceptionally large maximum aperture of f/2.4 to f/3.5, with the highest brightness in its class for the 28mm end of the zoom range. A digital zoom brings total zooming all the way up to 22x (resolution at the maximum digital zoom factor is 1024 x 768).The camera's resolution places it solidly at the top of the compact digital camera class: an extraordinary 8 million pixels, for a 3264 x 2448 resolution that will give your photography an astonishing level of clarity and depth.

Superb Performance - The PowerShot Pro1 employs Canon's advanced Hybrid AF system. This system maximizes the advantages of both the traditional contrast detection method (high precision) and triangulation (high-speed). The result is fast, accurate AF over the entire range of photographic conditions. The camera's innovative FlexiZone AF/AE system lets you move the AF point around the frame to focus on off-center subjects without reframing the shot. When spot metering is used, it can measure at the exact AF point location or meter the center of the picture area. The camera's extensive array of manual controls befits its professional-level image quality. Knowledgeable users can tailor shutter speed, aperture, focus, flash output and exposure control to match the photographic conditions and their own creative vision. The camera's standard macro function brings you a breathtaking 4-inches from your subject. But now you can get even closer: 1.2-inches with a new Super Macro Mode that delivers a full 5 megapixels of close-up detail. Three light-metering modes are available for precise exposure: Evaluative Metering, Center-weighted Average Metering and Spot Metering, which lets you measure exposure at the chosen AF point or the center of the frame for an exceptional level of control. Expanded Capabilities - Shooting with flash never slows down the action. The Built-in Pop-up Flash retracts when not in use, and you can opt to allow the flash to pop up and fire automatically whenever the camera detects a low ambient light situation. The camera's 3-mode built-in flash includes Red-Eye Reduction, and can be completely automatic or adjusted manually to 3 levels. Flash exposure compensation can be set (+/-) 2 stops in 1/3-stop increments. Advanced users will enjoy first and second curtain sync options for creative effects, plus compatibility with Canon's full line of EX-series Speedlite external flashes and Canon's E-TTL wireless flash system.

For example, add the new optional Tele-Converter TC-DC58A to achieve 1.5 times the focal distance of the master lens, or the optional 58mm Close-up Lens 500D for fabulous macro shots. PowerShot Pro1 includes a converter mode to ensure that the lens automatically moves to the optimum zoom position for both these conversion lenses. The camera comes equipped with a removable Lens Hood LH-DC10 that prevents any potential flare, and Filter Adapter FA-DC58A, which lets you attach filters for special effects. The camera uses a new Lithium Ion Battery Pack BP-511A with extended shooting capacity and a battery charge confirmation window that lets you easily distinguish between a discharged battery pack and a fully charged one. Enjoy expanded memory and high-speed writing with CompactFlash Cards Type I and II. Intuitive Design - With a comfortable, ergonomic grip and natural inline layout of key elements, PowerShot Pro1 is designed with the photographer in mind. The camera features a swiveling 2.0-inch Vari-angle LCD monitor that offers the highest resolution in its class at 235,000 pixels. The electronic viewfinder offers the same sharp resolution, and both keep pace with the high-speed zoom for seamless, responsive shooting. Information in the large display panel is always clear and visible- and the panel can be illuminated at the push of a button. The mode dial is located for easy viewing during operation, and a main switch takes you quickly from shooting to playback mode. When you switch off the power, the camera's shooting lens begins retracting immediately: no waiting for data to be written to the CF card.

EOS 1Ds Mark II Digital SLR Camera Body
Price: $7,999.99
The successor to Canon's 11.1-megapixel EOS-1Ds SLR introduced in 2002, the new 16.7- megapixel EOS-1Ds Mark II camera utilizes a full-size 24x36mm CMOS sensor that eliminates focal length conversion factors, and features dramatically improved image quality made possible by the combination of new image sensor technology together with Canon's exclusive DIGIC II image processor. The new CMOS sensor features larger microlenses over each photosite compared to the EOS-1Ds resulting in an improved signal-to-noise ratio. On-chip noise reduction has also been improved to produce a cleaner signal before the image data is transferred to the DIGIC II image processor. The DIGIC II processor in turn produces rich, high-chroma color gradations for more naturally rendered images. Indeed, it is the combination of Canon's proprietary CMOS sensor and DIGIC II technology that permits the EOS-1Ds Mark II camera to provide what was once considered near impossible: high definition at high resolution with extremely low levels of false color artifacts. DIGIC II also permits faster processing of large files and is twice as fast as the image processor used in the EOS-1Ds. 16.7 MP full frame CMOS sensor 4 Frames per Second 32 frame continuous shooting DPP RAW processing software DIGIC II E-TTL II flash system Wide ISO speed range Weather resistant magnesium body Dual performance memory card slots LCD with 230k pixels Color Space - The EOS-1Ds Mark II camera provides five preset color matrix settings plus two custom settings (as compared with the five presets provided on the original EOS-1Ds camera). In addition, the support for the Adobe RGB color space is improved through the use of DCF 2.0 and Exif 2.21 file formats. And White Balance - Inherited from the EOS-1D Mark II model is the new camera's white balance correction feature that permits nine +/-adjustments in full step increments; compensation for blue/amber bias or magenta/green bias; white balance bracketing in three +/- full stop increments and auto white balance derived exclusively from image sensor data. The camera features a total of ten white balance settings:Auto, daylight, shade, cloudy, tungsten light, fluorescent light, flash, manual, custom and personal. Fast, Fast, Fast - The EOS-1Ds Mark II pro digital SLR is ready for action just 0.3 seconds after its power switch is clicked on and fires a fast four frames per second at full resolution for bursts of up to 32 JPEG or 11 RAW images (compared with 3 fps for up to 10 frames on the original EOS-1Ds camera). In a commercial studio environment, the EOS-1Ds Mark II camera will actually shoot faster than the time it takes for most studio strobes to recycle. The camera also offers users ISO options from 100 to 1600 in 1/3-stop increments with the flexibility to expand the range to ISO 50 or ISO 3200 by utilizing the camera's custom functions. While the new 1Ds Mark II camera occupies the prestigious flagship position of Canon's professional digital line, it incorporates or surpasses many of the new technological advances introduced earlier this year on the 8.2 megapixel EOS-1D Mark II pro digital SLR, which has become a favorite of photojournalists, sports shooters and wedding photographers. Like its 8.2 megapixel SLR sibling, responsiveness and user-directed adaptability are again clearly evident in the range of the EOS-1Ds Mark II camera's shutter speeds - from 1/8000 to 30 seconds and bulb (with user-set adjustments of 1/3, 1/2 or full stops). The camera's shutter lag time is just 55ms and focus is achieved in a virtual instant thanks to a 45-point AF system. Precision also extends to the EOS IDs Mark II camera's 21-zone metering sensor, which, as one would expect, works seamlessly with the E-TTL-II flash metering technology. Adding to the camera's versatility and ability to reflect the individuality of the photographer using it, the EOS-1Ds Mark II camera features 20 built- in Custom Functions with 65 settings and 27 personal function settings that can be uploaded to the camera with the use of dedicated software. Recognizing that such customization can be time consuming, all of the camera's settings can now be saved to a memory card and shared with multiple cameras. Should the camera need servicing, the settings can be stored and reloaded after the work is done. With 16.7 effective megapixels (out of a total of 17.2 megapixels) packed on to a 36.0 x 24.0 mm CMOS sensor, the EOS-1Ds Mark II camera offers the world's highest pixel count in a 35mm, full-size digital AF SLR camera. In the JPEG Large and RAW modes, the 4992 x 3328 recorded pixels are easily capable of making 16 x 24 inch enlargements. What's more, the EOS-1Ds Mark II camera has sufficient resolution to generate a full double page spread at 300 DPI, considered the Holy Grail of catalog photography. Unlike the original 1Ds camera that featured only two image quality settings, the new EOS-1Ds Mark II model places greater control and discretion in the photographer's hands and offers a choice of five image quality settings: RAW (16.6 megapixels); Large JPEG (16.6 megapixels); Medium 1 JPEG (8.6 megapixels), Medium 2 JPEG (6.3 megapixels), and Small JPEG (4.2 megapixels). RAW files and JPEGS can be shot separately or simultaneously, for maximum flexibility according to the desired workflow. E-TTL II Flash Exposure Control - The EOS-1Ds Mark II Pro Digital SLR camera incorporates the E-TTL II Flash control system first introduced on the EOS-1D Mark II model earlier this year. Though it remains compatible with all EX-series Speedlites as well as the E-TTL wireless autoflash system, the smarter E- TTL II flashmetering algorithm evaluates the subject as a plane rather than a simply a point and ensures that images containing various colors and levels of reflection are captured accurately and optimally. The system compares the ambient light with pre-flash data reflected off the subject and recorded by the central 17 metering zones. It then selects the areas with a small difference to be weighted for flash exposure calculation. The system eliminates or under-weights areas with large differences, recognizing them as an extremely reflective object in the background or a highly reflective subject, then smartly ensuring it by considering the distance information data provided from compatible EF lenses. The system similarly prevents over-exposure when photographers lock focus and recompose the shot by considering the flash output level calculated according to the distance. The camera also allows users to select an averaged metering pattern by using its custom function settings. Pick A Card - Like the 8.2 megapixel EOS-1D Mark II digital SLR that Canon announced in January, this new 16.7 megapixel EOS-1Ds Mark II model is equipped with two dedicated card slots for Compact Flash (Type I or II) and SD memory cards and allows for either simultaneous backup recording for situations where image capture is critical or individual recording on separate cards for capture of an enormous number of images. The EOS-1Ds Mark II camera also features a brilliant and easy to read 230,000 pixel high detail color LCD Monitor (compared with a 120,000 pixel display on the original EOS-1Ds), that measures two inches on the diagonal and provides 100-percentcoverage. Image playback can be automatic after an image has been captured and is also reviewable by simply pressing the display button on the rear of the body. The monitor is equipped with a magnification feature that provides a 1.5 X to 10X scrollable zoom in 15 stops, enabling users to check the focus and exposure of their images with a new level of on-the-spot precision. The monitor also provides five brightness settings, a new and bolder typeface to allow for easier reading of text menus and an auto rotation feature that automatically rotates a vertically shot image to enable easier viewing and downloading. Manual clockwise rotation of the image is also possible by 90, 270 or 0 degrees through the image rotation menu. RGB Histogram - Contributing to the precision and control afforded to its users, The EOS-1Ds Mark II camera's RGB histogram display enables separate checking of color and brightness information for the red, green and blue channels. The RGB histogram can also be used to check other color information not available in the brightness display such as white balance bias, color balance, color saturation and the compression of color gradations. Available when viewing any recorded image in the Single (Info.) image playback mode, the RGB histogram is displayed as an alternate to the luminance histogram, which draws attention to overexposed portions of the picture that lack image information. Improved Interface In addition to the professional-standard four pin IEEE1394 (Firewire) port that enables high speed computer interface at 100 megabits per second, the EOS-1Ds Mark II camera features a new video output terminal which supports TV connection, facilitating the viewing of images on a television screen, as well as a USB port for connection to a computer or Direct Printing with BJ Direct, Canon's Compact Photo Printers and PictBridge compatible printers. Able to stand up to real world conditions - from environmental portraiture, nature, travel or annual report type images to high-volume catalog photography, family portrait studios or event imaging applications - this fast and fine thoroughbred SLR is also a rugged, lightweight, weather resistant magnesium alloy workhorse, with a shutter durability-tested to 200,000 exposures (50,000 more than on the original 1Ds camera). The camera's EF lens mount is made of stainless steel and is fully compatible with all Canon EF lenses (except EF-S lenses), as well as TS-E and MP-E lenses. Adding to its allure, the new EOS-1Ds Mark II camera fairly sips power from its battery, executing approximately 1200 shots per charge, double that of its original (and recent) EOS-1Ds ancestor. Bundled Software - The EOS-1Ds Mark II camera is bundled with two software CD-ROMs: the EOS Digital Solution Disk (ver. 9.0) which includes Windows and Macintosh versions of the EOS Viewer Utility (ver. 1.2) which allows image downloading, RAW image adjustment and camera setting specifications; EOS Capture (ver 1.2) and PhotoStitch as well Twain and WIA Drivers (Windows only). The second disk, Digital Photo Professional (ver. 1.5) includes a newly updated RAW image processing application to handle the workflow demands of professional photographers. It enables high-speed RAW image processing and preview, support for sRGB, Adobe RGB and Wide Gamut RGB color spaces and is Color Management System (CMS) compatible. The EOS Capture software supports tethered shooting with Digital Photo Professional as well as EOS Viewer Utility to provide a powerful performance combination for studio photographers. As with the EOS-1D Mark II model, no third party image retouching software is included. Remotely Possible - New for the EOS-1Ds Mark II camera is the optional Wireless File Transmitter (WFT-E1A)**. Given the enormous popularity of LAN-based image transmission systems and the demands for higher speed image distribution in the reporting fields, Canon developed this new accessory that allows photographers to transmit images from their cameras directly to a computer over a wired or wireless local area network (LAN). The WFT-E1 transmitter includes a mini antenna, a long and short IEE1394 cable, a case and camera mounting screw. The transmitter will also be compatible with the EOS-1D Mark II and the EOS 20D digital SLR cameras via a firmware upgrade. Pricing for the WFT-E1 has not been finalized, but will be announced prior to initial dealer shipments.
