Sony is taking the wraps off a new 10.1-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-T300 digital camera, featuring a stylish, ultra-compact design and intelligent functionality to help reduce the risk of taking a bad photo.

In advanced iSCN mode, the camera will shoot using the users settings and then will automatically step in and take a second shot with optimized settings. If the camera determines that the users settings are best, then a second photo is not taken.

Camera makers vie for SLR buyers' attention

Camera manufacturers including Canon, Pentax, and Fujifilm will show new digital SLRs for professional photographers at the PMA07 show in Las Vegas next month. The new models balance traditional and advanced features to retain existing customers and tempt new ones.

Dark Sector interview with David Kudirka: no PC version and no movie ...

David Kudirka: First of all, what gives specificity to the game is the use of the Glaive. It is truly a unique weapon. You have to sometimes use it in combination with fire-arms, but you must also use its new capabilities, acquired during the game, in order to create new styles of combat. That changes a lot compared to a simple shooter. And as you advance through the game you'll find more weapons and more ammunition. Moreover, with the Glaive [attached to his body], the hero himself is like a weapon. So he evolves and becomes stronger, which is a very interesting element in a game that wanted to be very open. JF: During the presentation we've seen a lot of intermediary sequences. Their proportion seemed quite important.

Theatre of dreams pauses to relive a nightmare
