Notebook Apple MacBook Air - 1.8 GHz


Our initial review of the MacBook Air, MacBook Air ultraportable, such as might not expect too many people, but the entry in the notebook category is small. Can tie the MacBook 13 "only has a 0.76-inch thickness, so it is very reasonable if you call Apple as the most thin laptop in the world.

Design and engineering of making MacBook Air extraordinary, to ensure a more product-specific MacBook 13 "standard. As a note, MacBook Air only has a USB port and is not available in the integrated (built-in) optical drives, FireWire, Ethernet and mobile broadband.

MacBook Air first impressions chasis is the same aluminum used on the MacBook Pro and fingerprint as standard equipment. Different to see the physical appearance that seemed to light, when the weight of the MacBook Air reaches approximately 1.36kg. Aluminum construction makes it feel very solid and compact at this time, so it does not need to hesitate to take them at any time.

MacBook Air equipped with the iSight camera, mic, and an LED-backlit screen is activated through a light sensor to adjust the contrast on the screen when the room light is limited. Backlit light sensor that is also found in the Keyboard, a full size version of the same used on the MacBook others.

Trackpad made large enough so that useful when performing functions such as multitouch gesture on iPhone, has a wide diagonally reach almost 5 inches. Users become more liberal to do the forward and back in the web browser history using the three-finger hands at once, and use the index finger and thumb to make zoom and in the document or image. MacBook Air use 1.8-inch 4.200rpm with a 80GB hard drive with 2GB memory and 1.6Ghz processor clockspeed, lower than the standard MacBook (2.0GHz or 2.2GHz in general).

Notebook Toshiba Tecra A10 series


The design of the Toshiba Tecra A10 is normal and not extravagant, and matt silver-grey look with the big Toshiba logo in the middle, which is shining silver. It is not really thin, but this is normal on Toshiba notebooks.With the first view everything appears good structured and you find the way immediately. In the upper row is the power button and besides this two different. One is for the "Toshiba assistant" with this I can fast access to the hardware of the Toshiba Tecra A10 and setup. The other button opens the Vista-mobility centre. Two small speakers are placed on the left and on the right are there also. The switch for W-LAN is on left device side besides the airing slits.

The touchpa is let in the plastic surface. Between the left / right click buttons of the touchpad is the fingerprint reader. In addition has the Toshiba Tecra A10 a TrackPoint between the G, H, B, N keys. It has two additional left/right mouse buttons, which we can find above the touchpad. I can use either pad or TrackPoint for mouse control. The keys react well, but the ENTER key is a little bit small in my opinion.

The battery sits very well and is fixed by a mechanical barrier, in addition. The Toshiba Tecra A10 seems to handle with the energy of the battery very carefully. With full usage and activated W-LAN remains more than 2 h. I do not know how this is when not using, the Tecra has power save mode.



Performance for applications

With 2.26 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU and 3 GB RAM suitable for all applications. Vista runs fast, just like all programs. With 3 GB RAM picture editing is also possible. Photoshop is working without problems. Merely with 3D applications as well as games you can not expect much in view of integrated graphic chip (Intel GMA X4500HD ).

Display

The display has a good brightness with acceptable contrast. Unfortunately, the colors are a little pale what might probably hang together with the contrast. The resolution from 1280x800 is for office and Internet as well as for multimedia enough. A plus of the display is that it is matt and shows no annoying mirroring. Also in bright environment the display image remains well readable.


Sound

The device has two simple integrated speakers with low-performance. They give clear heights; however, the depths do not exist. With very high frequency they incline immediately to overdrive and distort. This problem I know already from Satellite series, and when I use headset, than the sound is much better.


All in one, much nice Notebook for normal usage. If you want something for 3D you should better watch about different model with better graphic chip.

Nikon D300


If you drag the D300 of the packaging, one of the most important functions of your attention is 3-inch LCD screen. More than a mere possibility, your photos, the LCD on a Live View mode which allows you to compose shots while the screen, the installer is ideal for all periods in which it is difficult, eyes in the viewfinder, for example. Studio in the work of up and shooting macro-based. The D300 and the top-of-the-line D3 are the only two cameras Nikon digital SLR in the series, the live mode.Press the shutter once to lock the mirror and put the LCD, then press the new division of the lens and navigation on the trigger.


A Costume D300 is the high number of options for the adaptation of its checks to suit your needs; the manual of 421 pages gives you an indication of its complexity. In other words, the documentation is very well - to read, well organized and without squinting printing manuals in many other brands.

You can program a lot of buttons, and dual front and back selector selects other functions, by default, but you can control the depth - the preview to enable or disable the flash, metering modes to choose, or Auto-focus Auto exposure or block. Fine Tuning is a theme common to all controls D300. Take bracketing, for example: instead of the usual three to five bracketed shots, the D300 is able, up to nine images with different exposure settings, or nine images with white balance values. The only drawback is that you can not use the bracketing and white balance bracketing the same period. (I had a cruise on the manual alone, bracketing the control device, life something hidden under the FN key.) As in many other digital SLR, the Nikon D300 Picture Styles (Standard, Neutral, Vivid and Monochrome) that quickly the tone of your images. In addition, the D300 allows you to refine each of these styles saturation, contrast, brightness, and hue settings. You can create up to nine custom configurations and give his name - an essential feature, and a real help for those of us with bad memories. Another interesting possibility: if you have more than one D300 body, you can use the settings of a camera to another.


The ability to optimize the camera is essential, if you dive into the menu system. Dense and complex, the menus are on the D300 first, a nightmare. Fortunately, you can use the menus in the order you prefer to see if the task is somewhat difficult.

Nikon past have a strong tendency to underexpose images later in the software update. In scenes with large amounts of snow, sky and water, the Nikon was the only camera, said the closeness of the color and brightness.

The D300 is very fast: it can capture an impressive 6 frames per second burst mode and 7.5 fps with the addition of an external battery. My test unit is capable of image format of Nikon RAW and application, Capture NX. However, with Capture NX bundle with the camera is limited in time, the course in spring 2008, if you buy, you are looking for a box decorated with a label referred to the opening of Capture NX. Finally, if you Nikon MC-35 cable adapter and a handheld Garmin GPS, you can view the location data with your images in. As a landscape photographer, I regret that I have not been able to try the function.

The Nikon D300 is a camera you can take and run with it. Its high resolution, flexibility, excellent exposure accuracy, and useful Live View function, is worth the time to work on a long study stage. It must be the well against the two main competitors, Sony Alpha 700 and Olympus E3.
