Digital Camera News, Reviews and Tips
Photography Review has posted a review of the Olympus E-420.
The world’s smallest digital SLR does not disappoint. The Olympus E-420 packs professional features and performance into a remarkably small, lightweight and comfortable camera body. It’s obvious that Olympus’s designers thought this one through.

Imaging Resource has published a review fo the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3.
I’m used to expecting compromises in quality from the smaller sensors on digicams. They’re always good enough for small enlargements. But they fall apart if you zoom in too closely. At a 25 percent screen view, I thought I was seeing everything the camera had captured. Nope. The image held up very nicely as I zoomed in to 100 percent.
PhotographyBLOG has published a review of the Ricoh R10.
The Ricoh R10 builds on the winning design of its predecessor, the R8 model, by including a handful of minor new features that add up to make this the best Ricoh R-series camera yet.
Camera Labs has posted a review of the Canon 50D.
The Canon EOS 50D is a worthy update to the already excellent EOS 40D, equipping it not just with the latest features, but also a significant boost in resolution without compromising noise levels.

Digital Camera Info has published a review of the Nikon D90.
Setting video aside, though, there’s an awful lot to like about this camera, from its fast burst mode to its fine low-light performance for flash-free photos and a Live View mode that’s still not perfect, but does prove comfortable and convenient in certain shooting situations.

Camera.co.uk has published a review of the Fuji Finepix S2000 HD.
In my view the Fuji Finepix S2000HD does not match up to the best cameras in this section. It is true that it is not the most expensive super zoom camera, but I feel by paying that bit more you will get better value for money.
DP Review has posted a review of the new Canon 18-200mm IS lens, which we’ve all be waiting to hear more about. Unsurprisingly, it didn’t receive the coveted “Highly Recommended” badge from DP Review. The reviewers were only able to “Recommend” the lens with reservations, noting that it’s “a general purpose solution which allows the photographer not to worry about fiddling around changing lenses when out traveling, but which makes inevitable optical compromises to achieve this goal.”
DC Resource has published a review of the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3.
While it certainly doesn’t rival a digital SLR, the DMC-LX3 does deliver very good quality images for a compact camera. They have vibrant, saturated color, pleasing sharpness, low noise, and minimal purple fringing.
Imaging Resource has published an “Express Review” of the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T300.
Thanks to the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T300’s ease of use, intuitive design, and capable performance, I had a pleasant experience with the camera. The camera handles most normal shooting conditions well, and options like Smile Shutter, Face Detection, and its multiple focus modes help the Sony T300 cope with more difficult situations.
Cnet has posted a review of the Fujifilm FinePix F60fd, calling it “very good” with 3.5 stars.
Fujifilm’s FinePix F60fd is a nice full-featured compact camera, if you can overlook its slow shooting.
