IPad market share at the lowest level in history

According to market research firm ABI Research, the company's iPad tablet computer maker Apple despite continuous "storm" on the market but seems to be showing signs of hypothermia when the market fell to 55% in the quarter III/2012.

The company's iPad tablet computer maker Apple fell to 14% from the previous quarter, and the lowest level since 2010, the time of the introduction of the first iPad.

Meanwhile, in the opposite direction, the market share of Android tablet has grown rapidly in recent years and follow the iPad's market share. The decline in market share of the iPad stems from the unexpected success of the series of tablets from Samsung, Amazon and most recently, the Asus tablet Nexus 7 to work with Google.

According to ABI Research, Android accounted for 44% of the tablet market and this number will continue to increase in the future. Analyst Jeff Orr of ABI Research says Android is the first choice for the majority of hardware manufacturers, and we expect Android will continue to increase in number, through new products appear on the market, giving users more choices, appropriate segment both price and features.

Meanwhile, according to ABI Research iPad mini, miniature versions of the iPad has just been released recently not enough to help to iPad to regain market share from Google's Android. With the introduction of smaller and cheaper version, Apple has acknowledged the threat of cheap Android segment in the market. However, the price of the iPad mini is still high and hard to compete with the competitors in the segment.

The Android soon surpass the iPad in the tablet market is predictable, especially when most of the tablet makers around the world are using Android as their development platform, while only use proprietary Apple iOS for iPad. The leader in sales of iPad before many rival Android in the past three years the market has been seen as a huge success of Apple.

Camera reviews not mirror the Sony Alpha NEX-6

NEX-6 is a worthwhile improvement over the previous NEX-5R, when integrated add many new features to support better photography experience in many different conditions of use.

Similar to other members, NEX-6 easily be identified with the body (body) thin but sturdy, with deep design keeps hands and covered with a layer of skin, allowing the user can hold ahand firmly.

Unlike the NEX-5R, NEX-6 targeting to the more advanced user. The machine is equipped with a control wheel at the top to select the exposure mode. Comments on this wheel is great. Although not designed to add courses, but the user can easily adjust and not be confused when using different settings. In the lower bottom of the wheel is another wheel to customize the settings of the lens aperture and shutter speed.

Sony NEX-6 is equipped with 3-inch LCD screen supports 921,600 pixels electronic viewfinder with 2,359,000 points. The screen can give the user a good perspective at any angle, and really effective when operating in the light of the sun, when the user moves the screen brightness set at highest or options Sunny Weather. In addition, Sony is also equipped with a sophisticated sensor can quickly detect when the machine is brought close to the eye. Now, the lens electronic viewfinder is automatically enabled, and the LCD screen will be turned off. However, the screen of the NEX-6 does not support the ability to rotate and flip the sensor as NEX-5R. This will cause the user limit in the use of the self-portrait feature Wi-Fi as well as a password or set the focus point ...

Besides the control wheel, the NEX-6 also has a different rotation for the zoom in, zoom and custom manual focus. However, perhaps the manufacturer should design using click-select to avoid confusion when using controlled rotation.

Menu items in the Sony NEX cameras are very nice and spacious. Quantitative settings, white balance, Creative Styles ... can be found in the Brightness and Color. Image Size area will be used to adjust the image quality and user ratio (aspect ratio), while in the camera, users can change the AF mode. The application can be downloaded and accessed via the Application Menu. Set-up will allow users to change the brightness of the LCD screen or information display. Meanwhile, the functions Fn button can be used to access to 6 common set of machines.

By default, the manufacturer will not allow the use of special effects when shooting in original RAW format, but the user can still assign options Picture Effects and Image Quality menu functions to quickly change settings necessary. In addition, HDR and DRO options can also be accessed through this way. Two buttons on the back of the NEX-6 can be customized, but the lower button is the default mode selected AF.

Sony PlayMemories application service has been in operation and easy access to downloadable applications, although still not very rich library. Besides Remote Control application allows users to take pictures through the screen, as well as custom smartphones remote exposure, Direct Upload is also very useful to quickly upload photos directly to social networking sites from the NEX-6.

Comes available to the body NEX-6 is the ultra-zoom lens 16-50 mm. However, the zoom switch falls into the bottom of the accommodation of the thumb, so initial users will be a little difficult to get used to it, and sometimes will inadvertently zoom into a character, that scene if you touch .

On review, the photos were taken from the NEX-6 is quite impressive, with perfect exposure, vibration as well as full details.

Noise is well controlled at ISO 3200, but users should not exceed this number if you want to print photos in A3, except that it was ready to process RAW images.

At ISO 6400, the JPEG image looks very smooth in A3 size, but the noise reduction system will be able to obscure some of the details. Ability to autofocus hybrid at NEX-6 also did very well to quickly lock the object to the subject, but sometimes will be difficult for objects with low contrast.

Optimal two-mode Dynamic Range Optimization (DRO) and High Dynamic Range (HDR) will be very useful option to capture high-contrast scenes. DRO can be set at the highest level (level 5) and bring the photos completely natural. Establishing exposure HDR to the highest 6EV will be able to help make good HDR effects. Color in the NEX-6 will be quite dark in some traditional modes, but quite consistent with modern photographic style.

Automatic white balance system handled well in most conditions, but the user should use the custom profile to bring more beautiful images when shooting conditions in the shadows and multiple light sources. The video was obtained from the NEX-6 high-quality display, but the audio is limited by the integrated mic.

In short, the 16.1 megapixel image sensor color detail as well as charming, honest, NEX-6 are eligible to become a product of Sony's continued success in the camera lens arrayleft mirror. However, if the screen is equipped with the ability to rotate flip and touch support in NEX-5R, NEX-6 will become more perfect, in both hardware and software.
