Sony NEX-6 Mirrorless ILC Carving New Market Space

Sony's NEX-6 mirrorless ILC announced on Wednesday, September 12, represents a new range that targets photography enthusiasts.
Sony uses the NX nomenclature for its mirrorless ILCs and so far the NX-3 range has targeted beginners, NX-5 is mid-range, and NX-7 targets power users.
On August 30, Sony announced the NEX-5R that featured a newly-developed 16.1 MP, APS H (23.4 X 15.6mm) Backlit CMOS sensor with 200-12800 ISO range.
The headlining features of the NEX-5R were Fast Hybrid AF technology, wireless sharing and camera apps.
Fast Hybrid AF technology, first introduced n the NEX-5R, utilizes 99 phase-detection AF points arrayed on the image sensor to detect a subject's distance and quickly lock focus on it, and then uses contrast-detection AF to confirm extremely fine, precise details.
The Sony NEX-6 retains the 16.1 MP, APS H (23.4 X 15.6mm) Backlit CMOS of the NEX-5R, as well as its headlining features - Fast Hybrid AF, wireless sharing and camera apps.

It additionally packs some high end features seen on the NX-7 introduced in August 2011, such as the XGA (2.4m dots) OLED electronic viewfinder, built in flash, and direct access to camera settings using dials, buttons and knobs.
As a result, the NEX-6 appears to be a better camera than the NEX-7 if you don't consider the latter's whopping 24.3 megapixel, APS-C sensor as being such a big deal.
The NEX-6 will be available this November in a kit with the SELP1650 power zoom lens for about $1,000. It will also be offered as body-only for about $850.
The SELP1650 power zoom lens will be sold separately in January for about $350, and the SEL35F18 prime and SEL1018 wide angle lenses will be available this November for about $450 and $850, respectively.

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers Katy Perry continues working with the producers of GHD hair dryers and GHD hair care products: the singer once again demonstrated her luxurious hair in a fresh advertising campaign – this time she had the image of a diva from “the golden Hollywood” era (the pop-diva had already had the image of a hippie, a disco girl, and a mermaid). Luxurious dresses, bright makeup and a small portion of theatricality – one can immediately see that she is a star! The shooting was run by Ellen von Unwerth, who preferred to focus on restrained sensuality and the interplay of tones rather than on bright colors (the latter are always excessive with Katy) and presented black-and-white portraits of Perry to the public. The girl really looks perfect in the pictures : whether she is playing chess, recovering after a tiring concert or just getting ready to appear on stage. But whose merit is this: that of the photographer, the heroine, or maybe Photoshop?
