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...
Review The PL70 is Samsung's top-of-the-range compact camera and you get a handy 28mm wide-angle lens with 5x optical zoom, HD movie capture, a barrage of shooting options and a rather neat design. But is it enough to make it a winner?
Editors' note:
This review is based on tests done by our sister...
Review The 10-megapixel Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28's 18x zoom lens (27-486mm equivalent) may seem modest compared with some of the other megazooms on the market, such as the 26x zoom Olympus SP-590UZ. But the FZ28 makes up for these possible perceived shortcomings with a solid feature set which includes...
Review Nikon joins the ranks of manufacturers ramping up their top-of-the-line megazoom models to 24x. The replacement for the Nikon Coolpix P80, the P90, outdoes its 18x predecessor with a 24x optical zoom lens. The new model also has increased resolution from 10 to 12 megapixels. But what's really...
Review These days, it's hard to distinguish one point-and-shoot from another. Most of them tout similar features such as intelligent automatic shooting mode and sensor-shift/optical image stabilizer. So when Nikon announced the 12-megapixel Coolpix S1000pj, it was a breath of fresh air to the imaging...
Review Depending on how you use your photos, you'll either be thrilled or disappointed with the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS15. For its affordable price, you get a nice-looking compact with plenty of automatic shooting options and a couple of noteworthy features such as the 29mm-equivalent wide-angle lens with...
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...
Review Unlike in the past when camera manufacturers tried to outplay one another by introducing higher-resolution sensors or more powerful zoom lenses, these days it takes more than that to stand out from the competition. This is probably why some of the latest compacts show off interesting features, such...
Review Full-frame dSLRs have always been sought after by advanced shutterbugs and professional photographers for their better image quality, but such shooters are usually tagged with a premium price. Last year, Sony dropped the bomb with the full-frame Alpha DSLR-A900, the world's highest-resolution dSLR...
Review Good low-light shooting without help from a flash is a rarely attained goal in the world of compact cameras. The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX1 does it with three of the company's own components: A new sensor design, a high-end lens, and a fast image processor. The combination pays off for low-light...
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...
Review Olympus may be leading in the superzoom wars with its 26x optical zoom SP-590UZ, but it takes a lot more than a long lens to make a decent long-zoom camera. We're talking the same things it takes to make a good digital camera, like speedy performance, a competitive, useful feature set, and good...
Review The Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP is a pool/beach camera. Only waterproof down to 3m for up to 2 hours consecutively, it's not designed for serious diving photography. However, it is well-suited and priced for a secondary camera for snapshots in dusty, dirty, or damp conditions where you would not want to...
Review The compact long-zoom category, which was once dominated by Panasonic, has seen its fair share of contenders this year. Brands such as Canon and Fujifilm are stepping up to compete in this field and we guess that's what drove Panasonic to expand its current TZ lineup. Enter the new ZR series,...
Review The touchscreen camera industry have primarily been dominated by Sony with its Cyber-shot T series, but other manufacturers such as Panasonic and Nikon have caught up with their own touch-operated shooters in the past two years. For Canon, its foray into touchscreen snappers appears to be late,...
