This effected the market and the TV manufactures and the distributors in the GCC countries are really under pressure in this situation. As per our market watch team, the sale went down by 30-40% especially in the stores which is mainly depended on the Indian customers.

But really it is already calculated and listed by the customs. Latest news heard that the customs duty for the 40" LED TV is INR 14000/-. A customer came back from India mention this to our Market watch team.

SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 ZOOM -LATEST AND THE BEST PRICE IN DUBAI -UAE ! DETAILED REVIEW

Samsung introduces their a new era in the mobile world. I am talking about the new Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom. Their motto is " TALK & ZOOM". As the motto says the mobile has a features specialty of Zooming while taking photograph. The main features are 

In-Call photo share 

In-Call photo share means the camera can photos of anything that catches your eye and share it instantly while talking on the phone. So now no need to wait for sharing the picture while you are in  a long call.

Quick camera launch. 

Quick camera launch will help to turn your smartphone into a precision camera with twist of the zoom ring. Its same like the features which is in the Digital camera like Fujifilm XF1 and Fujifilm X20. It is the fast way to turn on the camera from the conventional concept of pressing the switch-on button.

10X optical Zoom

Apart from all the other mobile this Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom has the specialty of a long zoom which will help to get the object more closer and with a good quality. All the other mobile lack this and the users are not so much satisfied with the camera. So this can be said as a new start in Mobile-Camera collaboration. 

16MP BSI CMOS sensor

As a sensor is the one of the main part of a camera his BSI CMOS sensor with 16 megapixel will help the user in terms of picture quality in the low light area. When we buy a normal compact camera for a 100$ or 200$ we will get  camera with normal CCD sensor. But here it is added better sensor. But the problem is CMOS sensor will eat your battery more than the CCD sensor.  As already the Samsung Galaxy series have the lack of battery back up, this sensor will make more issue in this situation if the Samsung did not changed the power of the battery included with this. 

Optical image stabilization 

It is said that this camera in the New Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom will give the best Optical image stabilization. But when you use the camera in hand held position it is very difficult to take a picture which is moving or when you are on move. This is experiences in a hand held review. It is said that the optical image stabilization and the screen resolution is far better in the Android Digital  Camera version Samsung Galaxy camera than the Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom. 

So over all the zoom of the camera is said to be an added advantage from the all the other brands mobile.

the current selling price for SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 Zoom in the Dubai and all other Emirates of UAE is - 

THE LATEST AND THE BEST PRICE FOR SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 ZOOM IS- 

JUST AED 1899 - (520$)

What to do when you drop the Mobile in water or juice - Gadget tips

Dropped your handset in the bath?? Is it drenched in unexpected downpour?? 

Don't panic -- just follow these steps 

1. Firstly, retrieve your handset from the drink straight away. It will decrease the risk of damage. 

2. Resist the urge to check if it still works or press any buttons, since putting pressure on the keys could shift liquid further into the device. 

3. In all cases, the best thing to do is immediately pull out the battery, thus minimizing power to the device that may cause it to short circuit.  (THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT..!!)

4. Remove any peripherals and attachments on your phone, such as cases.

5. Extract the SIM card and any SD cards it carries, leaving ports or covers on your handset open to aid ventilation. 

6. Dry off everything with a towel, including the exterior of your handset, being careful not to let any water drain into openings on the phone.

7. Even when everything's dry, it's very likely there's latent moisture within the device that you'll want to get out before turning it on. The most oft-reported fix for a sodden phone is to bury the handset in a bowl of dry rice. You can also use silica gel packs -- the kind used in shoeboxes -- to greater effect.

8. Place your phone in an airtight container and completely cover it with your choice of desiccant. Leave the container for 24-48 hours for the material to draw all the moisture out of your handset.

9. When you're confident it's dried out, replace the battery and try switching it on. 

Good luck! !!!! If you save your phone this way, do remember me in your prayers!

Silhouettes in a Giant Moon-rise, Captured Using a 1200mm Lens?

Earlier this week, photographer Philip Schmidli of Lucerne, Switzerland captured this incredible photograph of a biker’s silhouette in front of a giant moon rising in the horizon.

Schmidli reveals that he has been trying to capture this photograph for four months or so, but complications got in the way of previous attempts. Clouds got in the way of the full moon in January, and bad weather interfered with his attempts in February and March as well.

Finally, during this latest attempt with April’s full moon, the weather cleared up and gave the “green light” for this photo idea.

He first spent hours exploring Google Earth, searching for the perfect location to shoot the image. He needed a hill in the distance that would allow his subject to be framed by the moon rise .The he ended up deciding on this hill.

To have the subject be dwarfed by the size of the moon, he needed a large gap between the camera and the hill. The distance for this shoot ended up being 1.3 kilometers, or 0.8 miles.

SONY HX300 - REVIEW WITH LATEST AND BEST PRICE IN DUBAI

Sony introduced new Cybershot HX300 which is in the bridge category with 20 megapixels-50X optical zoom-1080p HD video. As a very good camera should have the three key components to produce images : Lens,image sensor and image processing engine. This camera includes this three components in the best level as Sony can. 

Here it is used the carl zeiss lens which is the most Cyber-shot's eye to the world. Sony assures a superbly detailed image. The Exmor CMOS image sensor helpd the camera to double the light sensitivity and combines with Sony's Column A/D conversion to reduce noise by half while shooting in dimly light. With the help of Sony's image processing engine BIONZ which is very fast and efficient. The specialty of the camera which is Extra high sensitivity, Hand-held twilight,anti motion blur and high power zoom with blur free makes the photography experience more interesting and amazing. 

This model can be compared with Nikon's P520- 18mp- 42x- 1080p HD video , Canon SX50 - 12mp-50X-1080p HD and Fujifilm HS50 - 16mp-42x(manual) - 1080p HD video.

Compared to all this model the Sony seems to be a little bit bulky and the design is not interesting. Size wise more preference is for Nikon P520 and Canon Sx50. Fujifilm HS50 also is a size more but it looks like a Dslr camera with manual zooming which is amazing in design. Features wise also more preferable is Fujifilm.

Sony Rx1- review with latest and best price in Dubai

This is Sony'samazing new model RX1 which is 35mm full frame Exmor CMOS Sensor which will help to capture every detail of the scene with an extreme low noise and amazingly rich. This camera has a wide dynamic range and it is 24.3 effective megapixel resolution. 

This is highly inquired model of Sony among all the same range models in the competitive brands.

The main competing model of this range is Fujifilms new X-series and Olympus OMD series. But the Sony and Olympus has the unavailability in Dubai market feels the customer not to go for those models. But still the Sony is highly recommended by me. 

They use the same Carl Zeiss lens for this Sony Rx1 camera and the ISO can be increased upto 102400. For fixing external flash they gave a ni-multi interface shoe and it got an amazing body design.  The current,  latest and the best selling price of this model in Dubai,UAE market (will be updated soon)

Special offer!!!! Never wait gor that....

Most of the customer used to wait for a price drop in camera,mobile and other gadgets when they arr palnning to buy. Its not a good decision to wait for a price drop or special offer. Escpecially in the high end gadgets. For the small gadgets like compact camera and low end mobiles its ok to wait for a good offer. But most of the high end gadgets will reduce their price once tge model is outdated or ehen its going to be discontinued.
In case of cameras Dslr camera price will not be reduced if that is a good model. For example Nikon D90 stuck in the same price for a couple of years because of its high demand and popularity. But if a model is not success or a flop in the market then the price will go down immediately after the launch. Same like this Canon Eos 650 first edition was a flop because of some technical issues forced the company to reduce the price immediately after the launch. But this price unstability and issues is not applicable on compact digital cameras. Becuase as per the company the share of sale is determined by the sale of compact and low-end fast-moving cameras. In last couple of years Fujifilm camera reduced one of their compact camera price to half the original price to make their share in the market more visible.
When we see the mobile market we can see the same effect. High-end models of different brands like Samsung,I-phone,Sony, Nokia, HTC etc is still in the stable in terms of price. They never try a price drop in that series for making a big sales. Because they know that the customer will buy even in the same price.
