What the hell are you on? Improving sensor signal:noise ratio is not a bad thing for companies to be doing.
It's not a Leica M lens, so it's not all THAT great.
I second this... It's obviously of the paper. Look at the apple logo on the top left of the paper
You guys have no idea how many women (moms in their 30s or 40s who want to lose that "extra 10 pounds") will want this game. Come on people, Nintendo is pretty damn smart pushing this one out.
If you guys think apple overprices for their hardware based on brand, you guys should look more into the brand of Leitz Camera--Leica.

Of course Leica overcharges for their cameras, it is a well known fact! But we should all agree that leica produces cameras for a niche market. One, these cameras are rangefinders, not SLRs. They are meant to be subtle quiet and unobtrusive cameras, hence the quieter shutter and decrease in speed. Many shooters would love to have 1/4000th and stop down rather than having 1/8000th (who uses 1/8000th anyway?)

Two, these cameras are amazingly solid. If you have never held a Leica M series camera, you are missing out. These things are not toys, they are tools (Refer to the Leica Noctilux 50mm f/1)

Three, they are not meant to be phased out every 18 months, as your consumer-grade Digital SLR does. Nikon D100 to D200, to D300 in about 8 years. It took Leica what, 80 years to move from M2 to M8?

I could go on, but the point I guess i'm trying to make is that we know we are getting ripped off on what we pay for, sure, but we know the lovely aspects of the M series.
It's all about available light. If you dont have enough light to shoot in one situation, you need to bump up the ISO. This is the case for many wedding photographers, event photographers, and everyone else who wishes to stay away from flashes.

If you want low ISO, get a professional camera with an ISO option of 50.
Me love you long time, engadget!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
