Compared to regular digital cameras, mirrorless cameras tend to be on the slightly more pricey side, especially when you take into consideration devices like the Sony NEX-7 whose photo quality and features could almost rival that of a DSLR. In any case if a more affordable mirrorless camera is something you’d like to see, the 25th of June is said to be when Fujifilm could be announcing a new entry-level X interchangeable mirrorless camera, along with a new set of lenses and new camera firmware.
According to the rumors, the new entry-level X camera is said to be even cheaper than the X-E1, which as it stands will cost photographers around $800 for just the body-only. The full specifications of the entry-level X camera remain unknown, but so far some are speculating that it could feature a tiltable LCD display and no viewfinder. Either way take it with a grain of salt for now, but check back with us on the 25th of June to see if the rumors pan out.
Leica cameras do not come cheap, so you can only imagine how much it will cost if Leica were to do some sort of collaboration and release a special edition camera. Well for those who have the money to spare, Leica has announced a special edition D-Lux 6 camera and have teamed up with clothing manufacturer, G-Star RAW, for its design. So what so special about this camera? Well in terms of camera features, it is expected to remain exactly the same as the D-Lux 6, with the main difference being in its aesthetics. The special edition will sport “a new dot structure on the leather body trim”, a leather case, and an exclusive carrying strap. G-Star seems pretty pleased with this collaboration, claiming that it is a natural one since both brands stand for high quality products and durability. Make what you will of this, but this special edition Leica D-Lux 6 is expected to come with a price tag of $1,300 and will be available via Leica stores worldwide.

If you were to ask someone whether he or she could create a battery out of wood a few decades back, chances are you would be on the receiving end of an incredulous look, as though you were a mad alchemist from the Dark Ages who is trying to create gold from normal metal. Fast forward to the 21st century, and we have word that scientists have discovered a method to create a ‘green’ battery using wood. This battery is said to be relatively long lasting as well, as they charged and discharged the sodium-ion battery hundreds of times, and it still remained intact after that.
Remember when you were a kid, and getting a bicycle was one of the biggest dreams you had, so that you need not walk down the street any more to get to your friend’s house, but rather, you could just cycle down in a jiffy? Growing up, the motorcycle was next, and cruising along with that smug look on your face while the wind is beating back against your hair is another unforgettable feeling. A Kickstarter project that needs to raise $120,00 in 20 days’ time (having already picked up a quarter of that amount) is now making its rounds online, where the final electric two-wheeler is known as the

It has been a long time in coming for those who have been looking out to bring home the massive 55″ OLED TV, although you would need to live in South Korea if you were to be able to enjoy this puppy. This move is in step with the general market, where Samsung’s bitter rival, LG Electronics Co., has already started to receive orders for a similarly sized OLED TV in January earlier this year. We first took a look at the 55″ OLED TV from Samsung at CES 2013
