Review Canon seems to have an "if it ain't broke" attitude when it comes to its PowerShot SX series. The SX120 IS is the latest iteration of the company's 10x pocket megazoom and it is nearly identical to its predecessors, the SX110 IS and SX100 IS. The 10-megapixel SX120 IS uses Canon's Digic 4 image...
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 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...
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...
Features Taking great shots at night with point-and-shoots can be challenging, but some cameras are equipped with special technology to help you overcome that.

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...
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 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...
Review When Sony released the Alpha DSLR-A350, it stood out from the crowd primarily for its robust feature set at an aggressive price. A year later, everyone else has caught up, and its successor, the DSLR-A380, isn't quite so novel for the money anymore.
The A380 is nearly identical to its cheaper...
Review The Canon Digital Ixus 110 IS is a followup to the very popular Ixus 870 IS featuring the same 28mm wide-angle lens with a 4x optical zoom. But this model jumps from 10 to 12 megapixels, adds 720p HD video recording and utilizes the improved Canon's Digic 4 image processor. It also features an HDMI...
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 Samsung's 10.2-megapixel PL60 offers a tempting little package for anyone who wants a compact camera with some style, fancy tech and decent specs without putting too much of a dent in the old plastic. There are five PL models (the others are the PL50, PL55, PL65 and PL70), all of which are quite...
Review Arriving six years after Casio first introduced its slimmer-than-slim Exilim line, the 10-megapixel EX-S10 launched as the "thinnest 10-megapixel" digital camera on the market. For those of you who want a carry-anywhere point-and-shoot camera, that's a good thing. While an ultracompact--and...
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...
