Here's a brilliant camera that can make still shooting a real treat. This one's by Sanyo and is called the Xacti CG9 Camcorder. It is shaped a lot like a hair drier but has the features of a pretty good shooter. It can capture still images at a resolution of up to 9.1 megapixel and records video files in MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 formats. The 5x optical zoom and the 12x digital zoom can help you capture distant images as well. I really am eager to check out the videos captured by this one at 60 fps. It's also got a cool 2.5 inch display screen for you to cherish the images and videos you capture.

Here's something exciting from Casio. The EX-F1 camera is a brilliant high-end camera that's (sadly) available in Yens. It's got a 6 megapixel sensor and is capable of capturing videos at blazing rates of 1200 fps. This is a photographers delight indeed. It will serve best for high-end personal photography and to some extent it will aid to professional photography as well.

Sorry for the catchy title Lego fans. The camera mount isn't actually made of Lego blocks that you can break apart and rejoin, but it simply has a coat that resembles Lego blocks. This is for those who just love the idea of having everything ‘Legofied’. This is the work of the idle hands of one Mr. Matthew Davidson. Lego has won the hearts of millions of people from time immemorial. Gizmodude has covered cufflinks, tables and even iPod accessories that are built on the theme and block structure of Lego. It was built to bring together the Bogen 3157N’s base-plate to meet a Lego 32532 6x8 Technic Brick. The procedure, if homemade, would really be a fascinating experience.

Here's something most teenagers would kill for. The T5000 is a unique camera that can see right through clothes. Irrespective of whether you want to play Super Man or James Bon, the camera can detect objects that are concealed beneath clothing at distances of up to 80 feet away. If you are one of those folks who hate showing others the intricate details of your body then do not worry. The camera simply hides the fine details (or is it an incapability) and only outlines your body. Given its range, this camera is well suited for high security malls and places of importance. I just wonder what the mental condition of the person monitoring passers will be like the end of the day.

At last we have entered the age of affordable DSLR cameras. This one comes with a 2.7" LCD display screen and a crazy 10 megapixel lens. Another stunning feature is that weighs just 13.4 oz. That's 40% lighter than most of its contemporaries. Autofocus and Face Detection are features that should be taken for granted in wonders such as this. You can expect better contrast and color range with the HyperCrystal II. It brags about being the world's smallest DSLR. I wonder what's happening in the backyards of all the competitors after hearing this news. I'm more excited that curious about this.

With all the hype behind the latest coveted camera phones, we have another 8 megapixel beauty before us. There's just one difference. This one's Chinese and is already available at retail stores. The Lensas F2218 comes with a 6 mp CCD sensor. This can be used to capture images of resolutions up to 3264 x 2448 pixels. How about that for a sweet surprise.

This one's going to sell like hot buns. Chinavasion's Wireless Spy camera lets you record videos using a pen (that's actually a camera, duh!). It is impossible for anyone to even guess that this little pen is capable of recording and streaming videos to a wireless receiver. The receiver should be placed at a maximum distance of ten to twenty meters. It comes with support for media formats like MPEG, AVI, ASF, ADPCM, MP3, JPG and JPEG. The 64MB of memory may be too less sometimes but then you have a SD/MMC slot that can accommodate cards of up to 2 giga bytes.

Now here's something I was looking for. Just when everyone wonders at the slimming gap between the quality of cameras in digital shooters and mobile phones, a fresh breeze of competition blows in from this media player by Newman-Hyun. It sports a stunning 12 megapixel camera. You can drool over your super hi0res images on the three inch QVGA screen. The screen supports 260K colors. Along with a USB interface, the player also has a SD/MMC expansion slot. Imagine standing on your ranch, hearing some brilliant country music on your Newman, and spotting a distant horse on the moor, using the 8x zoom to get a closer catch and pressing CLICK! Ooh! The fantasies!

I liked this cool camera. It isn't just fluffy but also comes with a cool camouflage. It captures at frame rates of up to 30fps with resolutions of 320×240 and at 15fps with 640×480 resolutions. The minimum focus distance is 5 cm. The camera is hidden in this fluffy dog. The adjoining USB cable extends (rather grossly) from the rear of the pup. If you look closely at the image then you'll catch a glimpse of the lens situated on the nose of the mutt. This lens can be adjusted for better focusing.

Microsoft has expanded their LifeCam collection of amazing web cameras with the VX 7000. It can shoot still images with a resolution of 7.6 megapixels. The 2 megapixel sensor is capable for capturing high definition video clips. The camera is slim so that it doesn’t look weird when kept beside your slick LCD display. Other features include a Windows Live Call Button, One-Touch blogging button, a unidirectional mic with noise-cancellation for better clarity and automatic adaptation to low light environments. The lens is a 71-degree wide-angle unit so that it can capture almost every angle of visible objects.

Sony is flourishing their Alpha digital SLR camera line with a new offering. The DSLR A700 can satisfy the needs of some serious photographers. It incorporates Super SteadyShot Inside technology for image stabilization and provides with compatibility with Minolta Maxxum mount lenses. With features like HDMI out, a 3” LCD display and fourteen creative styles, the camera looks all set to hit the professional stands. The images thus captured by the 12.2-megapixel Exmor CMOS sensor are of excellent quality (of course) and the night view can take nocturnal shooting to new heights of excitement. The maximum shutter speed is around 1/8,000th of a second. The user memory can accommodate up to 28 camera settings and customization can also be achieved with the custom function button. It provides with slots for Memory Stick Duo™ media cards and CompactFlash™ Type I/II media cards

A small and compact appliance from the future often ends up on our shelves and then we marvel at the high price. Similarly we have the Spycatcher Glasses that remind me a lot of Tom Cruise’s eyewear in some MI flick. Owning this can provide you with close competition against James Bond. The glasses are stylishly sexy and have the camera concealed somewhere between the glasses. It facilitates with both audio and video recording of a pretty good quality. It can record either NTSC or PAL with 350 lines of horizontal resolution but at a low resolution of just about 510×492 for NTSC and 500×582 for PAL. You can blame the extremely compact 1/4″ Interline CCD. There’s also an electric shutter that goes from 1/50 - 1/100,000.

Sanyo have introduced the smallest 1080p HiDef camcorder that goes by the name of Xacti DMX-HD1000. Long name, I know, but the camera has some really cool specs. Basically shaped for a pistol grip, it also has a large 10x lens and a whopping 8 GB memory capacity. Thus, with a memory capacity of this magnitude, it is possible to shoot 1080p videos for up to ninety minutes. It uses a MPEG-4 AVC codec and a 1/2.5-inch CMOS sensor that can capture 1,920 x 1,080 resolution videos at a rapid 60fps. The camera is the smallest in its category. The design is very helpful for shooters, both novice and professional. Other features include a 2.7 inch LCD and face recognition for 12 faces.

The PlayStation EYE is all set to look you deep in the eye and say, “BUY ME”. For those who are wondering what this may possibly be needed for, there’s this PlayStation game called “Eye of Judgement”. This game uses a camera to control the game play. A perfect supplement one would say. And hey! You have pre-orders already being accepted by amazon.com. The design seems pretty good to tone with your PlayStation console.
