Canon EOS 7D

Canon EOS 7D

Review Canon basically ceded the midrange, pro-performance dSLR market to Nikon in 2005 with the arrival of the D200. Since then, Canon's 30D, 40D, and 50D have taken the slower but less-expensive road, with a relatively stagnant autofocus (AF) system that Nikon leapfrogged. But with entirely new AF and...

Casio's Intelligent AF detects more than faces

Crave Casio Exilim EX-Z450 If you've got a point-and-shoot with face detection, you may have noticed that the feature's handy if you're shooting faces, but if left on when shooting other ... Read story »

New Sony Alpha A550, A500 target burst, low-light shooters

Crave The Sony Alpha DSLR-A550. With the announcements of the Alpha DSLR-A500 and A550, Sony brings what feels like a market microsegmentation strategy to dSLRs. These models raise the total of ... Read story »
Nikon Coolpix S70

Nikon Coolpix S70

Review The Nikon Coolpix S70 is an impressive leap forward in design and functionality from its predecessor, the S60. That camera, while it has an excellent design, sports a touchscreen LCD that we found occasionally frustrating to use. That's not great considering operating the shooter was nearly all...
Sony Alpha DSLR-A230

Sony Alpha DSLR-A230

Review A modest update over its predecessor, the Sony Alpha DSLR-A200, the Alpha DSLR-A230 offers the same essential feature set in a redesigned body with sufficient quality and performance-enhancing firmware tweaks to merit the upgrade. Similar to its predecessor, the result is a generally solid, if not...
Nikon Coolpix S570

Nikon Coolpix S570

Review The Nikon Coolpix S570 is a solid camera which looks simple and stylish. The shooter's 28mm wide-angle lens and 5x optical zoom help it stand out from the competition, besides a consistently good photo quality below ISO 400. A new specialty mode for portraits and its pedestrian shooting performance...
Canon Digital Ixus 120 IS

Canon Digital Ixus 120 IS

Review A followup of sorts to the Ixus 100 IS, the Canon Digital Ixus 120 IS is another very small, very lightweight 12-megapixel camera. It drops its predecessor's optical viewfinder and in place gets a larger 2.7-inch LCD and 28mm-equivalent lens with a 4x optical zoom. Aside from a couple of minor...

Nikon D3000

Nikon D3000

Review It's hard to make the shooting experience of an entry-level digital SLR feel anything more than cheap and cheerful, but that's what Nikon has done with the D3000. Lightweight, easy to use and able to deliver some great pictures with a decent lens attached, there's only one or two quibbles about the...

Casio Exilim EX-FC100

Casio Exilim EX-FC100

Review There's no doubt the high-speed photo- and movie-capture features of the Casio Exilim EX-FC100 are remarkable given its size and price. Its features tackle one of the biggest problems with point-and-shoot cameras: Missed shots due to slow performance. Even its regular shooting performance is...

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35

Review The Panasonic FZ series is the company's superzoom lineup and, from the looks of its design and specifications, this shooter is targeted at enthusiasts and slightly more advanced users. The upgrades are pretty incremental compared to its predecessor, the FZ28, but we have to admit the FZ35 is a...

Canon PowerShot S90

Canon PowerShot S90

Review It's been four years since Canon announced the PowerShot S80 for its range of high-end compacts. Only recently the Japanese firm revived this family lineup with the S90 to compete with the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3 in the advanced point-and-shoot category. This is hardly surprising as the Lumix has...

Sony: Video recording will be a necessity in dSLRs

Crave Katsumoto with the Alpha DSLR-A330. It is ironic for Sony to comment that a video-recording feature will be a necessity for dSLRs, because its recently launched Alpha DSLR-A230, A330 and ... Read story »
Nikon D300s

Nikon D300s

Review When a camera has an 18-month product cycle, it's hard to squash some disappointment when its followup has only a few enhancements, despite the fact that it's common to make a major update only with every other generation. When it's a great camera to start with, like the Nikon D300, the ambivalence...
