Digital Photography Review is doing a great job posting pre-Photokina 2006 announcements.  In pre-show craziness so far, there have been 74 new products announced, including a Leica M8 digital rangefinder (which I am really excited about even though it will have little-to-no impact for underwater photography).  Most of the announcements so far have been incremental updates to existing models, with 10-megapixel compact cameras being the new standard.

In other trends, new SLRs are all featuring anti-dust sensor vibration, and compact cameras are starting to produce acceptable high(er)-ISO images.  In particular, Fujifilm compacts have been producing images with relatively low noise levels when compared to offerings by other brands.

  2. Hi Tobias,

    I’m not sure who is going to Photokina, but if you’re interested in helping out Wetpixel - we could really use someone to report on the show.  Send us a note or reply if interested.

    Cheers
    James
