Posted by: Mark Peters

In the Panasonic booth, we ran into a number of prototype Lumix lenses. These Micro Four Thirds lenses have not yet officially been launched, however, they are expected to be released mid April 2010. This means that the line of Panasonic Lumix lenses extends rapidly, through which Panasonic keeps its promise to make the Panasonic system cameras into a mature line. The first prototype Lumix lens is the Panasonic Lumix G Vario f/4.0-5.6 100-300 mm, a zoom lens with integrated Mega OIS stabilization. Also a lens with a large range, compared to 35mm, it provides a stunning 200-600 mm. Undoubtedly an eagerly awaited zoom lens.

Canon adds to its acclaimed L-series with the launch of the new EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM telephoto zoom lens.

True to the L-series’ heritage, the Canon EF 70-200mm lens delivers optical excellence in the most challenging situations.

Although the digital camera has become quite common, the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas shows that especially in this segment, where quality is an important factor for the user, a lot of innovation still takes place. The digital SLR camera features a traditional construction, however, thanks to the development of Micro Four Thirds, we find the market changing. And as often is the case, it is precisely the non-traditional camera manufacturers that have managed to create a new camera segment, which is expected to conquer a large market share. High-quality digital photography has become accessible to everyone. Compact cameras, digital SLR cameras and Micro Four Thirds System cameras are available for the novice amateur photographer, and come with an affordable price tag, while the professional version of the digital camera is the optimal tool for the professional. The digital camera still leaves room for further development; CES 2010 exhibits the latest cameras.
