Samyang AF 12mm F2.0 X lens introduced
Samyang introduced the AF 12mm F2.0 X lens. The description of this APS-C ultra-wide-angle lens with Fujifilm X mount noted its rectilinearity, that is, there is no distortion, so that straight lines appear straight. In addition, the advantages of the novelty include small size and weight, as well as the use of a linear automatic focusing step drive, which provides fast, quiet and accurate focusing, since it moves only one optical group.

Insta360 has announced its most expensive and powerful 360 camera yet, the One RS 1-inch 360 Edition. The novelty is made in a modular version. The One RS 1-inch 360 edition consists of four parts: a mounting bracket, a battery pack, an imaging module, and two 1-inch sensors.
CMOS sensors are capable of capturing 6K video at 360 degrees and at 30 frames per second. They are also capable of taking 21-megapixel 360-degree photos. Insta360 claims that the larger sensors provide better low-light performance and offer a wider dynamic range than its previous consumer cameras.
Other features of the camera include a USB-C port, a microSD card slot, and a 1.3-inch touch screen for viewing recordings.
The One RS 1-inch 360 Edition camera is available for $800. That being said, One R and One RS owners can purchase the 1-inch 360 module, battery, and mounting bracket for $650. In this case, the processing block remains the same.

Flying “car” LEO Coupe will have over 200 propellers

LEO Flight, formerly known as Urban eVTOL, has revealed an alpha version of its LEO Coupe (LX-1) flying vehicle. It is alleged that the novelty will be able to transport three people at speeds up to 400 km / h.
The prototype is currently equipped with 72 duct fans to create lift. The final version will receive more than 200 propellers, which will allow the vehicle to take off and land vertically. According to the developers, this is the most efficient way to fly in this mode.
In addition, the LEO Coupe will be equipped with box-shaped wings, but they will provide lift at speeds of about 200 km / h, so at low speeds you will have to rely only on propellers.
Using a large number of small propellers instead of a few large ones will save battery power. Also, small fans reduce the dimensions of the machine. It is alleged that the LEO Coupe will be able to sit in a regular parking space.
A proof of concept in action is expected as early as August this year. But the timing of the appearance of the finished machine is not reported.
Earlier in Brazil, Eve received an order for 100 vertical takeoff and landing electric aircraft.

The best-selling portable console Steam Deck will become more affordable. Valve more than doubles production

The Steam Deck console will be available in large volumes soon.
Valve has published a message that it is increasing the production of the console, more than doubling it!
It is unclear whether this will be enough to meet demand, since the company initially accepted a lot of orders for the console, and now it is very false to buy it. But such a significant increase in production volumes should have a positive impact on the availability and prices from resellers.
The company also announced that it has just completed deliveries of set-top boxes that were booked in the second quarter, and will begin accepting pre-orders for the third on June 30th. However, delivery on the site is still indicated no earlier than October.
