Previously released products get to show off during IFA

The IFA trade show saw many items at Sony's booth, the company having even put on show some headphones, like the MDR-NC100D, which can be carried in mostly any pocket.

Those keeping track of things on the IT market will no doubt know that the 2011 edition of the IFA trade show got many companies to gather in Berlin, Germany.

We actually have two colleagues on the site, taking photos of as many products as they can get close enough to.

You can read all of your findings and hands-on experiences here, from a variety of IT segments, like the mobile, audio, visual, multimedia, etc.

Sony, unsurprisingly enough, made a point of covering a significant number of those areas, from the smartphone to the camera.

Our most recent coverage of its product range actually focused on the Sony NEX-7 Digital Camera.

It turns out that the outfit was just as prepared on the audio front, having exhibited the MDR-NC100D headphones.

This item, along with the much larger MDR-NC200D, were officially released on the last day of the previous month (August 2011).

Now, the NC100D has still not been given a price, nor an availability date, but everything else was, at least, made clear.

No doubt the biggest asset is the pair made by DNC software engine (DNC is short for Digital Noise Canceling) and Artificial Intelligence Noise Cancelling (AINC). All in all, the headphones cancel about 98.2% of all noise.

Considering that the product uses ear buds instead of over ear cups, this is nothing short of impressive, especially seeing as how there are other features as well, like an S-master Full Digital Amplifier and Digital Equalizer, plus a large, 13.5mm diameter driver unit (greater dynamic range).
