I'm a sucker for wide angles - I was kinda hoping it was going to be 16mm (24mm equiv) like the sony lenses... only faster and on a camera system that doesnt call the aperture 'Background Defocus Mode'

I've read conflicting reports on whether its going to be their amazing hybrid viewfinder, or that 'dumb' VF in the X10. I'm hoping as the MSRP creeps higher and higher, they will have less of an excuse to cheap out.

I'm sure there will be more, those are just the ones available at launch. I like the choices, a wideangle, standard, and portrait - covers most of the basics, and leaves room to expand. I think them all being fixed zooms will also give the new system a quality advantage over some of the mediocre kit zooms the other

Canon hasn't said anything one way or the other. The Wells Fargo site might have screwed the pooch.

Pretty sure that press release quote is for their new bridge camera, the S1. Though, if Fuji found a way to make a 24-624mm zoom lens for an APS sensor, then let me just give them a giant bucket of money now.

"RIM began to get its mojo back."

I'm voting for Mat solely out of selfish support for one of the other 10 Mat's with 1 t in their name in this world. Kick some superfluous-T butt!

Happens a lot on their links for some reason... the real address is still in there, just broken by a bad line of code. If you want the original story, click the link, and then go delete all the stuff in the address bar up to the 'read more' section.

It's a really cute haircut, Sam.

No, because it's not hearing the sound wave that causes the distress, its the actual impact of the sound waves on your body that causes the reaction in your respiratory system.

Is the 24-85 the 35mm equivalent, or is that going to get cropped 1.5x?

These things have a way of working themselves out...

Dippin Dots only stay in ball form for the first minute or two when they are too cold to taste. Then your hand warms the cup and you have 1,000,000 little balls all stuck together and you have to scoop it out just like every other cup of ice cream.

I think that there may be a little backward logic at work. People with gambling problems will find ways to gamble - it's not like a casino pops up and people suddenly decide to become addicts. And the 'locals' casinos like this have shown no uptick in drugs or prostitution - thats really only an issue for 'sin

Not the original article so much as the many many comments about how you should buy it because it's so cheap.

It's not short-sellers or undervalued... its a bankrupt company. They have hired bankruptcy lawyers. They lose money as business, and they debt outweighs the combined value of their patents and real estate and IP and whatever else. When they liquidate, the stock will be worth zero. The 70 cent current share price

It will get de-listed if it's share price averages to below a dollar over a 30-day period, so Kodak will probably be on the pink-sheets by Halloween.

They hired bankruptcy consultants, 70 cents is probably overvalued.

He made $100 because he was on a subway car full of tourists going to the US Open. On an average day of NY commuters, they'd make about $1.75 per car.

I, for many years, lived in one of those neglected parts of NYC where the subway is still above ground. So let me assure you, cell phones on the subway is an awful dreadful murder-inspiring thing - Because it is *never* the quiet, polite, considerate cell phone users that decide their phone call simply can't wait
