Olympus E-450 review

The 10-megapixel E-450 makes a number of subtle but welcome improvements over its predecessor, the E-420, and, as a result, is a worthwhile entry-level digital SLR. Offering good picture quality, comfortable handling and diminutive dimensions, it's a strong contender if you're looking to step up from a compact Read more

Fujifilm FinePix F200EXR review

The FinePix F200EXR is a great camera, but it's Fujifilm's new EXR sensor that's the star of the show, capturing a level of detail that can't be matched by rivals. The controls can be confusing and you might notice some barrel distortion, but overall, the F200EXR sets new standards for compact-camera performance Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6 review

The 10.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-TZ6, with a super-wideangle 12x zoom, is a really rather special compact camera. Other cameras may be smaller, cheaper or offer more manual control, but excellent picture quality, a superb build and finish, and fantastic versatility mean the TZ6 is difficult to beat Read more

Canon EOS 5D Mark II review

The 21-megapixel EOS 5D Mark II digital SLR will prove a must-have, zippier upgrade for many users of the original 5D. Delivering the fluid shooting experience and high-quality photos you'd expect from a professional camera, the Mark II also offers excellent video-capture capabilities Read more

Canon HG21 review

Our main issue with the HG21, Canon's high-class, high-definition camcorder, is that it may be too good for its own good. Now that should tell you something. The HG21 comes with a whopping 120GB hard drive, a vast array of high-end features and produces video that is absolutely breathtaking. If you think you can make use of it all, this one's a winner Read more

Nikon D90 review

The Nikon D90 is the first digital SLR camera with video recording, which is great, especially since it's shot in 1,280x720-pixel motion JPEG at 24fps, giving it a cinematic, high-definition look. You can also shoot video with any lens, which yields interesting effects Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX500 review

You can't go wrong with the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX500. This excellent compact features a 25mm wide-angle lens and a 5x optical zoom. Plus, it has myriad features, including the proven Mega OIS system, and you can tweak most of them, making this an excellent shooter Read more

Casio Exilim EX-F1 review

If you've ever missed a great photo waiting for automatic focus or a flash, you'll know the importance of high-speed shooting. Casio's Exilim EX-F1 takes it to the extreme, capable of capturing up to 60 full-resolution snaps -- or a mind-boggling 1,200 low-res pics -- in a single second Read more

Olympus E-410 review

The 10-megapixel Olympus E-410 is the kind of entry-level camera that will appeal to newcomers to single lens reflex digital photography. Based on the Four Thirds System, it's comparitively small and light for a dSLR, even with the lens attached Read more

JVC Everio GZ-MG505 review

JVC's Everio GZ-MG505 is a hard-disk-based 3CCD camcorder that follows in the footsteps of its predecessor, the GZ-MC500, which remains an extremely impressive camcorder, even by today's standards. The MG505 adds a larger hard disk and improved optics, but it still records to proprietary video format, which may not please more professional users Read more
