Nikon D90 DX – First DSLR with HD720p Video Capability

Friday, August 29th, 2008

I don’t know of any other DSLR camera manufacturers that provide HD video on their DSLR camera products. Now, there is one! Nikon is the first DSLR manufacturer to provide HD video capability, namely HD720p video on its D90 DX DSLR. The bad news is that I already bought a DSLR camera. Even though the D90 DX will be in the market soon enough, the price is still out of my budget.

Some of the Nikon D90 features:

• 12.3 megapixel CMOS sensor
• ISO 100-6400
• HD720p video capture (w/ audio)
• One-button Live View with Face Detection System
• 3″ LCD 920,000 pixel resolution
• 11-point AF
• Continuous shooting as fast as 4.5 frames-per-second
• 96% viewfinder coverage
• HDMI output

I can buy two of my current Olympus e-420 for the price of the D90 which is about $1300 retail 18-105mm lens kit & $1000 for body only. Nikon offers perhaps the best low light capability cameras & the D90 DX has an ISO6400 capability. The D90 DX is targeted at the advanced amateur market. With the D90 DX, users have a taste of using the Nikon flagship model, the D3 & receive the HD720p video capability to boot! It’s the first of its kind. Nikon is definitely making the correct move to win over a chunk of big spending DSLR users worldwide with the D90 DX.

Safe & Effective iLASIK Procedure for Everyone

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

You may have probably heard of the state of the art laser vision correction technology called LASIK. As with everything new you could have been wary of its effectiveness & reputation in the past. You could have even doubted the worthiness of the LASIK procedure against its risks, although only minor risks. Nonetheless, any qualms about LASIK are understandable as having a surgical procedure done to the eye is certainly nothing to be taken lightly.

Well, you should know that new technologies like the LASIK technology gets better & better with age. The modern LASIK procedure, also known as iLASIK™ Procedure is so safe & effective that the Department of Defense (DOD) & NASA has it administered to specialized personnel as to improve their vision for facing extreme & physically demanding conditions. The iLASIK™ Procedure is practically validated by both the DOD & NASA! Furthermore, the military’s evaluation of iLASIK (modern LASIK) in 100 military personnel showed that 95% achieved 20/20 uncorrected vision or better!

So why is iLASIK better than its predecessor, the LASIK procedure? Let me tell you a bit about the latest LASIK information I found on ilasik.com. Two lasers are used in iLASIK instead of only one with the old LASIK, wave-front technology maps the eye & an ultrafast, computer-guided laser for cutting instead of a handheld blade used in older LASIK procedures. Then a second laser is used to correct the patient’s vision. It’s a real blast to be on the ilasik.com site. You can find all the information you need to know about iLASIK. Plus, there is a short iLASIK procedure movie to help you understand it better.
