Interesting news from Photokina is Canon announced the M80 and M30 media storage devices. With 80gb and 30gb capacity respectively they should prove popular if the price is right. I keep delaying looking too hard at these kinds of machines because of the price but this coming from Canon does look tempting.

Rob Galbraith has pointed out that Canon has added a couple of new New Digital Photo Professional tutorials. If you are an EOS owner and haven’t tried out the bundled software yet, get on over and download an update and try it out, you might be surprised at how good it is.

Well, I received another email today from Nikon. Unfortunately this time the spin wasn’t so positive. It seems that they are recalling a batch Nikon Li-on batteries (and guess whos camera falls into this bracket!). It’s a back to base return I am informed, however from what I can ascertain from several websites if you provide a credit card number they will ship you the battery in advance (just make sure you return the faulty unit!)
The units affected are…
44AC, 46AC, 46AD, 46AE, 46AF, 46AG, 46AH, 46AI, 46AJ,
Are you geeky enough to pay $250 for a hi-tec photo frame?
