Report: Gran Turismo 5 "autumn" launch revealed by Sony exec
Autoblog: Guess what? Puxatony Phil saw his shadow and Sony announced another delay for Gran Turismo 5 in the same week. Oh, the irony. In an interview with Spanish site Canarias Al Dia, CEO of Sony Entertainment Portugal James Armstrong reportedly revealed another disappointing delay for the highly anticipating driving simulation game.
Vær med å støtt opp rundt Røde Kors hjelpe arbeid på Haiti! Det skjærer meg i hjertet å se på alle de som nå lider der nede. La oss alle hjelpe til litt, så kan vi i alle fall redde noen. Haiti har vært utsatt for alt for mange prøvelser. Nå må vi prøve å hjelpe, da de ikke har en eneste mulighet til å endre situasjonen til det bedre selv!!

Gran Turismo 5 reportedly shooting for Summer 2010 release
Autoblog:
The release date for Gran Turismo 5 hops around so much we're going to call the game The Flea from now on. From a couple of dates late this year to early next year in Japan to possibly, maybe, potentially a Summer release for the U.S. It's not that we can't keep up anymore -- we might just be tired of trying.
That summer date for our shores isn't even set: the folks at Sony are "eying" that window. Back in September Polyphony Digital head Kazunori Yamauchi said "I don't think it's going to be that different for U.S. and Europe" to get the game around the same time as Japan. Apparently the marketing department, which was given as the reason for the delay, remains deep in "discussing their issues."
We have but one issue: it's hard to keep hanging on for the supposed Second Coming (or is that Third? Fifth?) of driving games when the "Coming" part refuses to happen. And we sure hope they're working on GT6, because at this rate we're going to be buying that game with our Social Security check.
Jaeger-LeCoultre pays tribute to Aston Martin Racing with exclusive chronograph
Autoblog:
We love us a nice Aston Martin here at Autoblog. But if the British purveyor of the grandest of grand touring cars has a counterpart in the watchmaking industry, it's surely Jaeger-LeCoultre. Good thing the two of them just signed a three-year renewal of their partnership, then.
0-60 builds its own Need For Speed racing cabinet, tells you how
For the first time in a long time, we sat down and played a racing game the other night. Fine, it wasn't a racing game -- it was the VirtualGT racing simulator. What did we learn? Georgia ought to pass a law against letting us onto Road Atlanta in a Porsche 997 Cup car. Also, instead of sitting on our buddy's couch and stuffing our face with Collisions: Pizza Cravers and Ranch flavored Doritos (a real flavor -- we swear!) while mindlessly hitting everything on the streets of Monaco in GT4, being in a race cabinet (and having a Cup instructor barking instructions in our ear) allowed us to pop off a 1:43 run around a 2.54 mile course. Not too terrible. And we're totally sure the cabinet added a second or two. Ahem.
Sadly, those high-falutin' racing rigs cost a fortune -- $18k at the low end, and that's without a display of any sort. You'd have to be a Porsche Cup racer to afford one. Not so fast, say our pals over at 0-60. In fact, they built a cabinet for Need For Speed: Shift and they're calling it the D.I.Y. R-Cade. First of all, how much will it cost you? $500, minus all the electronic stuff (which you probably already own anyhow). How long does it take? Not sure, but there are about 60 pages of instructions. We figure pretty long. Still, the end result is pretty cool looking, and you'd have your own racing cabinet.
We're pretty excited about the new Gran Turismo 5 video game for the PlayStation 3 and PSP, and the sneak peeks we've seen so far have been astonishingly good. We know GT5 will have some sweet damage rendering capabilities, night racing and weather changes. Plus, we know the graphics are damned impressive. But clearly there's more on the table.
GT5 will be all well and good, but what we're about to show you is about as eye-popping as anything you're going to see. After the jump is a video rendering of the rare and alluring Koenigsegg CCX done by a company called Proper Graphics. It is not, as originally thought, a teaser from GT5.
The clip is only 1:47 long, the engine doesn't start and the tires don't even budge. It's just a series of hovering camera shots of the CCX on a beautiful cobblestone road, and the detail is just shy of breathtaking. The sheetmetal, carbon fiber and interior appointments are about as detailed as anything we've ever seen, and we're hoping that we can expect a taste of this sort of thing in future GT installments. Hit the jump to see it for yourself.
Leica M9 - stille, diskret, kompakt – komprimert til det essensielle – gjør at fotografen får ta del i det hele. Selv om M9 er verdens minste systemkamera med en 24x36mm fullformats sensor, er den suveren når det gjelder bilderesultater. Kompromissløs bildekvalitet, overlegen rammesøker og fantastiske objektiver gjør M9 til det perfekte redskap for å fange det avgjørende øyeblikket. Kameraet blir levert i svart og stålgrå versjon. M9 leveres med egen versjon av Adobe Lightroom som vil bearbeide kameraets 16-bit DNG Raw-filer.
M9’s sensor har fått nyutviklede mikrolinser som motvirker vignettering på kantene og i hjørnene. Leica sier at: ”For M9 var det ikke et spørsmål om å modifisere objektivene til sensoren, men motsatt, å tilpasse sensoren til de eksisterende objektivene.”
Digit.no: På tross av at EOS 7D bare har ett nummersiffer, er det ikke et kamera med 35 mm fullformat bildebrikke, slik EOS-1D-serien og EOS 5D/5D Mark II. Bildebrikken er en CMOS i APS-C format, som på tradisjonelt Canon-vis gir 1,6x forlengelse av brennviddene i forhold til et 35 mm kamera. Bildeoppløsningen er holdt på relativt moderate 18 Mp (5184x3456), som synes å være et fornuftig kompromiss mellom oppløsning og lysfølsomhet/støy. Standard lysfølsomhet er ISO 100-6400, men det kan utvides til ISO 12.800.
