The annual Photo Marketing Association Annual Show starts today in Las Vegas. It’s the place where the new year’s hottest digital cameras and related products are announced. Digital Photography Review, Steve’s Digicams, DC Resources, Let’s Go Digital, Engadget and Gizmodo have special coverage.
Sony has launched its first wireless point-and-shoot camera, the $600, six-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-G1. Sony claims the camera will also be able to communicate (via peer-to-peer or ad-hoc connections) with other Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA)-enabled devices, such as another camera or a PC.
The optical stabilized zoom is 3X (a 35-mm equivalent zoom of 38 to 114 mm). The camera features a 3.5 inch LCD and will ship with 2GB of on-board storage. It will also have many of the playback and slideshow capabilities that the N1 and N2 have, as well as the ability to load your own music files. It shoots 640 by 480 at 30 frames per second and will use Sony’s Memory Stick Duo, now available in capacities up to 8GB.
Sony’s WiFi camera joins other wireless point and shoots such as; Canon’s $350 SD430, Nikon’s $350 S50c, Kodak’s $200 EasyShare, Ricoh’s WiFi/GPS camera.
