Variable centre-weighted metering and spot metering are also available, as are exposure compensation and auto exposure bracketing. &amp;nbsp;Advanced Auto White Balance (AWB) produces natural colouration by measuring the entire frame of each scene and matching white balance to the light source. &amp;nbsp;Nikon&amp;#39;s new 11-area AF system offers effective new focusing options that will instill greater confidence for capturing the desired shot. &amp;nbsp;With a start up time of just 0.18 seconds and a shutter minimal release lag time of approx. 80 milliseconds, the D80 delivers instant response. Continuous shooting at a rapid 3 frames per second, in bursts of up to 100 JPEG images (FINE M-size or smaller) makes action photography a reality. &amp;nbsp;A large new 2.5-inch, 230,000-dot high-resolution LCD provides an ultra-wide 170-degree viewing angle from all directions. Images can be previewed easily thanks to a new dedicated zoom button which helps assess sharpness up to 25 times magnification. A new RGB histogram display also assists when evaluating exposures with greater precision. The D80 boasts built-in Standard or Advanced Pictmotion slideshow options, including style selections that control transitions and background music. &amp;nbsp;A new user-friendly menu interface makes for easier operation and menus can be customized using the &amp;quot;My Menu&amp;quot; setting. Exclusive in-camera image editing features, such as D-Lighting and Red-eye correction, in the new Retouch menu ensure consistently satisfying results and greater creative freedom without the use of a computer. A new Multiple Exposure option creates a single image from up to 3 consecutive exposures to offer a similar effect of that produced with film. &amp;nbsp;The powerful built-in flash employs Nikon&amp;#39;s highly robust i-TTL flash control for greater precision in flash exposure evaluation. Full support for the Advanced Wireless Lighting System allows the built-in flash function to operate as a two-group remote commander providing direct control over wireless SB-800 or SB-600 Speedlights. &amp;nbsp;The Nikon D80 beautifully combines the latest advances in digital technology to ensure every aspiring photographer will enjoy the Nikon digital SLR experience as much as the superb pictures produced with the D80. </description>

<description>2008-08-28 14:13:48&#60;br/&#62;&#60;br/&#62;£174 - Sigma 20mm f/1.8 EX DG RF lens.&amp;nbsp;This super-wide-angle lens ensures minimal light-fall-off with superior peripheral brightness. The iris diaphragm has 9 diaphragm blades to obtain beautiful out of focus images in the foreground and background. This is an ideal DG lens optimized for Digital SLR cameras.Minimum focus distance of 20cmThe minimum focusing distance of this lens is 20cm and it has maximum magnification of 1:4 with fast F 1.8 maximum aperture. The minimum focusing distance of 20cm and 94.5 degree angle of view allow close up photography surrounding the photographic subject. Handling The lens incorporates Dual-Focus (DF) mechanism. It is easy to hold the lens, since the focusing ring does not rotate during auto-focus, yet it provides adequate focusing torque of the focusing ring during manual focusing of the lens. The rear focus system eliminates the need for the front of the lens to rotate, thus allowing the use of a &amp;quot;Petal-type hood&amp;quot;, which is superior light blocking effect.   Incorporated aspherical lenses The use of aspherical lens elements in both of the front and rear lens groups effectively compensates for distortion, spherical aberration and astigmatism.</description>

<description>2008-08-28 11:52:58&#60;br/&#62;&#60;br/&#62;£1049 - The Canon EOS 1D II.&amp;nbsp;Defining momentRepresenting the ultimate in responsive D-SLR photography, the EOS-1D Mark II is the undisputed first choice of the working professionals who require speed and high resolution. 8.2 Megapixel x 8.5 frames per second performance marks the beginning of a commanding, rugged and seriously featured professional camera.Harness the powerAt the heart of the EOS-1D Mark II jaw-dropping speed sit three perfectly balanced and superbly integrated technologies: Canon&amp;#39;s second generation DIGIC II processor, a new CMOS sensor and new buffer system. These technologies work in concert to deliver 40 frame bursts at approx. 8.5 fps in JPEG, or 20 frame bursts in RAW mode at approx. 8.5 frames per second. Super sensorThe new APS-H size CMOS sensor gives a 1.3x magnification advantage over 35mm. A built-in low-pass filter eliminates false colour and moir&amp;eacute; effects. Extreme low (50 ISO) and high (3200 ISO) settings are selectable to push the wide 100-1600 ISO speed range.Reliability you can depend on Shutter durability improves by 33%, to 200,000 cycles. A &amp;#39;Back-Up&amp;#39; mode, designed for critical shooting situations, allows simultaneous recording to both CF and SD memory cards. When one card is full, it is possible to cancel the Back-Up mode and elect to shoot to the card that is not yet full. In &amp;#39;separate recording&amp;#39; mode, images are written either to the CF or SD card (as selected by the user). Camera settings can be saved to the card, a valuable feature for professionals that need to move preferred settings to rented or loan equipment.Flash and  meteringThe EOS-1D Mark II features Canon&amp;#39;s Evaluative Through-The-Lens (E-TTL) auto-flash system, offering both evaluative and averaged metering. A new recording algorithm achieves more stable control, helping maintain correct exposure even with moving subjects. Shutter speed range is 1/8000 to 30 seconds, with a 40ms minimum shutter lag and noise reduction.Total  controlImages can be checked on the 230,000 pixel LCD for focus and composition, while a 15 step 10x zoom enlarges specific details. sRGB and Adobe RGB colour spaces are supported. White Balance control includes WB bracketing (3 bracketed images per shutter release) and +/- 9 step WB compensation for both blue/amber and magenta/green. Interfaces include video out (for simultaneous monitor display in NTSC or PAL formats), IEEE1394 (Firewire) and USB.</description>

<title>Nikon AF-S 12-24mm f/4G IF-ED DX</title>
<link>http://www.mpbphotographic.co.uk/index.php?id=23&#38;product_uid=1062</link>
<description>2008-08-20 18:25:29&#60;br/&#62;&#60;br/&#62;£464 - Enjoy a wider angle of view with the Nikon AF-S 12-24mm f/4 IF-ED DX autofocus zoom lens, which is optimized for Nikon digital SLR cameras. &amp;nbsp;This lens offers such features as a 2x zoom ratio, an exclusive Silent Wave Monitor that allows for accurate and quiet high-speed autofocusing, two Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements for minimized chromatic aberration, and three aspherical lens elements for low distortion. &amp;nbsp;Nikon&amp;#39;s D-type design, meanwhile, provides precise distant information for the flash and ambient light exposure processes. Perhaps the nicest feature, however, is the small image circle--the size of the image that&amp;#39;s projected by the lens onto the sensor--which produces an optimal image from the center to the edge to the corner. &amp;nbsp;Other details include a variable angle of view from 99 degrees (at 12mm) to 61 degrees (at 24mm), a rounded diaphragm that makes out-of-focus elements appear more natural, and an 11.8-inch close focus distance throughout the zoom range.</description>

<title>Canon EOS 1D II</title>
<link>http://www.mpbphotographic.co.uk/index.php?id=23&#38;product_uid=1217</link>
<description>2008-08-14 22:00:35&#60;br/&#62;&#60;br/&#62;£989 - The Canon EOS 1D II.&amp;nbsp;Defining momentRepresenting the ultimate in responsive D-SLR photography, the EOS-1D Mark II is the undisputed first choice of the working professionals who require speed and high resolution. 8.2 Megapixel x 8.5 frames per second performance marks the beginning of a commanding, rugged and seriously featured professional camera.Harness the powerAt the heart of the EOS-1D Mark II jaw-dropping speed sit three perfectly balanced and superbly integrated technologies: Canon&amp;#39;s second generation DIGIC II processor, a new CMOS sensor and new buffer system. These technologies work in concert to deliver 40 frame bursts at approx. 8.5 fps in JPEG, or 20 frame bursts in RAW mode at approx. 8.5 frames per second. Super sensorThe new APS-H size CMOS sensor gives a 1.3x magnification advantage over 35mm. A built-in low-pass filter eliminates false colour and moir&amp;eacute; effects. Extreme low (50 ISO) and high (3200 ISO) settings are selectable to push the wide 100-1600 ISO speed range.Reliability you can depend on Shutter durability improves by 33%, to 200,000 cycles. A &amp;#39;Back-Up&amp;#39; mode, designed for critical shooting situations, allows simultaneous recording to both CF and SD memory cards. When one card is full, it is possible to cancel the Back-Up mode and elect to shoot to the card that is not yet full. In &amp;#39;separate recording&amp;#39; mode, images are written either to the CF or SD card (as selected by the user). Camera settings can be saved to the card, a valuable feature for professionals that need to move preferred settings to rented or loan equipment.Flash and  meteringThe EOS-1D Mark II features Canon&amp;#39;s Evaluative Through-The-Lens (E-TTL) auto-flash system, offering both evaluative and averaged metering. A new recording algorithm achieves more stable control, helping maintain correct exposure even with moving subjects. Shutter speed range is 1/8000 to 30 seconds, with a 40ms minimum shutter lag and noise reduction.Total  controlImages can be checked on the 230,000 pixel LCD for focus and composition, while a 15 step 10x zoom enlarges specific details. sRGB and Adobe RGB colour spaces are supported. White Balance control includes WB bracketing (3 bracketed images per shutter release) and +/- 9 step WB compensation for both blue/amber and magenta/green. Interfaces include video out (for simultaneous monitor display in NTSC or PAL formats), IEEE1394 (Firewire) and USB.</description>
