An extra stop with the new sensor design.

Sounds interesting.

It only takes a few extra seconds, and works a treat with the 'Places' feature on iPhoto.

Can't remember what brand my logger is. It only cost about 35 quid from eBay (which is what...? About $10 these days!) and works with any camera (I plan on getting a Lumix GH1 shortly, so no need for any additional hardware).

If you have a phone with GPS (iPhone, SE C905) you can also get software to create the track files too. Check out the App Store or GPSed for Java phones.

Hope that helps.]]>Aug 6th 2009 8:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/Aug 6th 2009 12:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/Aug 6th 2009 3:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/
And I don't mind the resolution is 10 Mpx as that is already way too high for most app. Again it is image quality, not resolution that I want.

Finally I wish Sony would support SD memory card.

They use "Folded optics" in these cameras.

There is a little right angle prism in the lens, so most of the optics are running top to bottom in the camera.

That's how they get them so slim.]]>Aug 6th 2009 5:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/I was about to buy the T900 so maybe I should just wait...]]>Aug 6th 2009 12:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/Aug 6th 2009 1:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/
Now all I know is that the w290 is 12.1 megapixels and has a 3" LCD while this WX1 is 10.1 megapixels and a 2.7" LCD but some new sensor.

So any camera buffs out there... Which is the better camera to buy? Is this new sensor worth it?]]>Aug 6th 2009 1:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/
The 12.1 megapixels does look nice on screen. But is really that big of a difference from 10? I wouldn't know.

Oh and the 3" screen is the shit.]]>Aug 6th 2009 1:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/Aug 6th 2009 9:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/Aug 6th 2009 10:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/
of all the stupid extra features (PET shot, case in point) that SONY includes, all i want is good optics (carl-zeiss lens), 8MP, good colors, and a movie mode that allows you to zoom. is that really a lot to ask??? including a microphone that doesn't pick up wind would be nice too but i get if they can't do that.]]>Aug 7th 2009 11:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/Aug 30th 2009 7:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/sonys-cybershot-dsc-tx1-and-dsc-wx1-cameras-boast-pet-friendly/
If your looking for bigger screen then T900 will be for you 3.5 touch screen it has whereas TX1 has the 3.0 inch. Tbh you will still get some really great shots with T900 so its all about personal preference on the design and what sorta budget your on!]]>Aug 26th 2009 8:08AM
