Great Link.

This along with the release of the manual , prove thi will actually get released.
I think it's funny that the guy doing the review has a Nikon neck strap on

Nice. The motion remover is cool. I just wonder if it leaves any weird artifacts as it clones in the blocked content.

The 2550 is also something I hadn't heard about!

How does/would it know what to clone to where?

My guess is that if you shot a scene and a fat person walks slowly you will end up with part of that person still in the composite shot.
Or a person waving its hands... you will get an armless person... no

edit: and i see that is exactly what happens. You can see the leg of a person that just walked by. And she was even walking by FAST.

I don't see this as being very useful. Tourists are walking around slowly and looking at sights. If you use this on them you will probably end up with a pic with a lot of strange body parts and artifacts allover the place.

If the pics were taken wit 1sec intervals and than compared and outputted to lower resolution to compensate for any involuntary camera movement it would produce a better effect IMO.

That is how you do it on the PC using say "photo acute". Load up few pics of the same location, but you chose when to snap them in the first place. :)

I just browsed through the manual and it discusses this problem. To have some control over it you can set the amount of time that elapses between images. So for slow moving people you can set long intervals. Of course, then you need a tripod or other means to prop the camera to stay in one spot for an extended period.
 
Wow that good thinking on their part.
Cant wait to for someone to address this feature in more detail.
Thanks! :)
 
Its an interesting feature like when using it for birds flying. One needs to find out the best way how to do it though.

We are planning to implement this feature for our wedding photography. When the husband puts the ring on her hands etc. Of course, in order to do that precisely one needs to practice that to find a good "rhythm" of shooting. (I'm talking about the pictures, not what happens during the night after ;-)
 
Why is the eye sensor blinking white in that video posted above?
Is it some reflection from the camera that is filming the HS10?
 
It's the same technology you see on automatic-flushing urinals ... haven't you seen the little blinking red light on those? It tells the EVF when you eye is close or when it moves away. Most of these devices are IR - infrared.

Anyone else having trouble with the second video? It gets partway through then locks up (?)

Triple and optical image stabilisation have been mentioned, yet I don't think it has what others call optical IS. The third mode would be adding underexposed frames.
The LCD really shines.
 
So if that eye sensor is IR, how come it is visible like that?
Is it some kind of camera effect that makes it visible when filmed?
iPhone has such a proximity sensor and it is invisible while operating...

If it's gonna be visible like that during regular operation it will be VERY annoying IMO!
 
It is a infra red LED, that detects the Eye to switch from LCD to EVF.

Because of the camcorder sensor is very sensitive for the inrared light, it is visible on the video. But in real, You will not see the blinking, because it is unvisible for the human eye.

You can make a test with the remote controler of Your HiFi station or TV. Take a camcorder or camera in video mode. Place the remote controler in front of the camcorder lens and press a button of the remote controler. You will see a similar white light on the camcorder screen.
