Here is a question that I don't believe I've seen before. Pardon my inexperience, but a lot is said over at the Canon forum about the G1's capability for an ISO 50 setting to achieve astoundingly low noise. I believe the claim if you look at the images from the acclaimed G1 expert named Pekka Saarinen, whose site has examples mostly shot at ISO 50.
Check it out:

Now if the Sony 3.3mp chip is used in both the G1 and the S75, why wouldn't Sony tap into this low noise arena by sending out a firmware update for the S75 that would extend the ISO range down to 50? Can it be done? Is there merit in this? Seems like a real advantage.
BTW, I'm still buying an S75 when they ship. I just love the color accuracy and, yeah, I like having the actual Zeiss name on the lens. I feel I'm getting the best QC effort.
Thanks for your comments.

Re:
I see this from another perspective. What would they do to support ISO 50 with electronic image sensors ? For given shutter speed and aperture, the number of electrons in the CCD cell is independent of ISO setting. So, I guess ISO control is done by adjusting the gain factors in the firmware or ADC circuitary. Now, I'm proposing this experiment. By setting the EV adjust +2 or so, you intentioanlly make the image over exposed. Then take the picture to a image editing software and adjust down the level. Except the saturated areas, the image should be the same as it would be at lower ISO ! By going through this process, you have reduced the relative noise level. And that's why lower ISO images are cleaner.

Re:
If Sony didn't anounce it- you won't be getting it.....ever. That's
just the way it is with Sony. Buy their camera today and buy
their newer camera tomorrow... there just is no middle ground.
They don't ever issue firmware upgrades, sorry. This is in stark
comparison with Canon which is well known for their product support
and upkeep. Imagine, they even sent all their 8200 customers
a free batch of their newer inks! FCOL ( that's "for crying out loud" ;^)
The S800 will definitely be my next purchase and hats off to
Canon for at least "caring" for their patrons.

I
believe that is because Nike sells only newer shoes on their websites. A
lot of Shox have been out in the market over the years and many vendors
online have stock of these old shoes such as Nike Shox deliver,
Nike shox conundrums, etc. There's a lot of websites as well that sell
fake shoes or imitations. If you want to buy shoes online, just make
sure to check if the store is legit. You don't want to be scammed. If
you want to get Nike shox with unique design and colors, you can
actually customized it with Nike. Hope this helps.
Your Harley engine has roller and needle bearing in the engine rather than "shell insert" bearings. You don't have to redo the bearings in the engine until it starts knocking. I've seen engines with 75,000 MILES on them and still running fine. Harley always said that the bottom end of the Evolution engine was 100,000 miles. I believe they'll do this although I've never seen one with that many miles on it.
you wont be able to play .iso files(games in the iso folder) because you updated to Sony's official firmware.
but in order to play .iso files again you will have to hack you psp and make sure its running cfw(custom firmware).
You cannot play .iso or .cso files (or any homebrew games) on your PSP unless you have firmware 1.5 or a custom firmware. Any "off-the-shelf" firmware such as 4.2 will not support these types of files. They will just show up as "Corrupted Data".
You can go through the process of downgrading your firmware from 4.2 to 1.5, then from 1.5 you may upgrade to a custom firmware such as 5.00 m33-4. Doing so would require a good deal of technical know-how and a LOT of patience. If you do not want to risk ruining your PSP, do NOT try this. Research methods of downgrading such as "Pandora's Battery" and other firmware downgraders.
You were able to download games from the PSP website because they are programmed to play on the current firmware. Even if you were to (somehow) properly convert the .iso or .cso files to an EBOOT.PBP file, it would not run unless you have firmware 1.5 or custom.
I tried to purchase one for the $142.00 and it was not in stock. I think contaced the person someone recommended on this website. This was his answer:
It seems a lot of people are having problems with the Protron power supply. I’ve been able to repair all the ones I’ve seen so I’m confident I can fix them. I don’t sell the replacement power supply but I’ve heard about the ones on EBay. They seem to be a mishmash of two power supplies (12vdc and 24vdc) wired together with the proper connector. This should work but it just doesn’t sound very clean looking to me and they end up costing $150. I’ve been charging between $50 and $100 to repair these power supplies. My recommendation would be to send me the power supply I’ll check it out and unless it’s unusually damaged it will cost $50 plus shipping to repair. If I can’t repair it I’ll return ship it and only charge for shipping. I will guarantee the repair for 1 month. I don’t know what’s causing the power supplies to fail so I can’t guarantee it any longer than that. My feeling about the reason the Protron power supply stops working is two part; could be overheating due to lack of proper ventilation to the power supply; or the TVs power requirement is overdriving the power supply. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I repair these at my work, so here’s the shipping address: Dave Simpson 23372 South Pointe Dr. Ste. B Laguna Hills, CA 92653 Also, I’m set up for PayPal. [email protected]
No, 8 sec. is the max.
goto the S (shutter priority)or M (manual)setting on the camera and use the black wheel with your thumb to set the shutter speed.
