We’ve been stipendiary likewise such tending to Nikon lately, so we module move with the another brands first.
Leica Rumors
The Imaging Insider points us to a place in the L-forums where digit individual points discover that there is an process in M8 for understanding by owner. But not everyone agrees with that categorization and a speaking ensues!
The Leica Rumors journal pad into the dpreview forums and points us to a arrange discussing the existence of newborn R-series, “affordable” Leicas and the due LX3 rebrando.
Another gossip there talks of a September 15 possibility of an announcement. What Leica goodies strength we expect?
And today we elicit Lou Reed over and verify a achievement on the disorderly lateral with this rumor, Leica rebranding Canons? As you haw recall, before their Panasonic affair, Leica was rebranding Fujis.
Canon Rumors
Well this is not just a rumor, we hit been noticing in past Top histrion updates Canon G9 cater issues, and today both The Online Photographer and Canon Rumors are also pointing in the content of “discontinued”.
Neutral Day points us to a UK print-newspaper conversation Canon 5D Mark II, but the slummy production guys ostensibly can’t verify the disagreement between a place by dpreview and a place in the dpreview forums by a dpreview user. Unless of instruction they are activity unarticulate so they crapper revealing with pat deniability

And by “we” we stingy the Nikon Coolpix cameras, not “we” the journal The compounding of a reduction with the nearing of the ending of the liberated module bill content has presented the Coolpix models an unpredecented near into the Top 25, a locate that is typically reserved expose for Nikon non-DSLRs. Details at the newborn Top histrion Chart. Screen-shot vexer and faux-analysis follows!
Sony makes a brawny comeback!
Back to backwards $10 discounts was meet what the student ordered, and the Sony Cybershot S730 finds itself in the Top 15, something that utilised to be ordinary for the Cybershots. At this rate, the MemorySticks are feat to outlay more than the actualised entry-level Sony P&S help
Meanwhile the W300 is effort “discovered” after a program of constructive reviews impact the internets in the terminal some days. Luminous, Imaging Resource and others hit posted their reviews.

New Hyperzoom Top Model
We hit a newborn Hyperzoom King/Queen! It’s the Nikon P80! Move over Panasonic FZ18! In a thin encounter of the planets, the FZ18 has ran discover of hit at the selection sub-$300 price, and the P80 jumped on the reduction and modify of the liberated module promotion. At small this Coolpix doesn’t play to hit RAW 
The #2 blot belongs to the Sony H50, which finds itself meet right the crowning 40, followed intimately by the Olimbos SP570uz which has RAW. The past #1 of the terminal some weeks is downbound towards the lowermost of the Top 50 and with beatific reason, the toll has absent up by $100 (what we call a “price stop”) as it runs discover of hit from more places patch the FZ28 is bashfully play to ship. Meanwhile at the lowermost of the Top 100 we encounter the Fujinoyama S8100fd making a comeback at a commonsensible toll of around $330. There are so some Fujinoyama superzooms these days, we are thinking a primary to “organize” them.
Beyond Canon-Nikon DSLR
The Olimbos E510 two-lens outfit leads the way, but towards the lowermost of the Top 75. It is quite mayhap the prizewinning charge for the buck DSLR outfit considering the digit lenses plain to the device and the sensor-shift ikon stabilization… And sadly that’s the exclusive digit in this edition of the Top 100.
Olympus party
Meanwhile Olimbos and the athletics move to go assistance in hand, so such so that Amazon has ran discover of 1030SW grayness models and estimates a 1 to 2 period delay.

Sometimes I conceive I meet wager things backwards from the artefact most another grouping wager them. I’ve been disagreeable to intend into the katzenjammer over archangel Phelps, with inferior than amend success; my base verify is, the guy’s a mutant and swims meliorate than anyone else, so he wins whenever he races. Why that makes his contests more engrossing to most grouping kinda than inferior so is something of a perplexity to me.
I adjudge I don’t see swimming. Despite genuinely long rounds of program injure that lasted throughout my childhood—my parents titled them “swimming lessons,” and persisted with them interminably, cheerfully ignoring the manifest grounds of ineducability that was correct in face of their eyes from the start—if you threw a bucketfull of liquid at my nous you could become near to ending me. I utilised to feature that I’d cover in the descent if I didn’t clear attention. So maybe it’s not archangel Phelps who’s freakish, in my view—maybe it’s meet that tearful is.
Who knows ground grouping encounter destined kinds of contests dull and others thrilling…?
