Canon EF-S 18-200 mm 1:3.5-5.6 IS -Wishlist added



Just arrivel from my feed that DPreview reviewed a Canon EF-S 18-200 1:3.5-5.6 IS.

As what comment on the review , It is a general purpose lense which allows the photographer not to worry much on bringing few lenses when out for travel. Although there are some limitation on 18mm but it wounld't stop anyone for looking a 3in1 lense with a bundle with a VR/IS quality together.

Nok 5800 XpressMusic vs Iphone 3g

e


Today helping mother in law to check for 3g phone at Pyramid but still not able to found a better phone instead.

So i go back to my favour site GSMAREna and check out any good 3g phone.

Surprising instead of finding a flip phone i end up finding a Banana(Stand) phone.

Even Surprise is touch screen is not even release on N85 recently. Maybe it is a test market strategy.

Compare head n toe with 5800 vs Iphone
Size -109g vs 133 g
Display -TFT 16M vs Touch Screen 16M
Camera 3.15 MP, 2048x1536 pixels, Carl Zeiss optics, autofocus, video(VGA@30fps), flash; secondary videocall camera vs 2 MP, 1600x1200 pixels

There are someone already done a direct compare in GSMArena check this out.

Expected to release on end of year 2008 , rest wait for the release...
