Let’s Go Digital has posted a review of the Panasonic Lumix FZ28.
The Panasonic DMC-FZ28 offers a solid and excellent image quality. The optical image stabilizer system enables shooting with relatively low ISO in order to considerably lessen the chance of image noise at 800 ISO and higher.

Rumors of a Nikon D400 have recently began to surface. A couple of reputable sources, Thom Hogan and DPR forum user jeff-c, have alluded to a 16 megapixel CMOS sensor manufactured by Sony being placed in the D400. (via DPR) While December 1 has been speculated as the announcement date for the past week or so, no confirmation has come yet. jeff-c said that Nikon would announce a high-MP 135-size DSLR in about 45 days back around the end of October – so the first half of December looks pretty promising.
Thinking back to a little over a year ago, the announcement of a D400 makes more sense. Recall that last Fall, Nikon announced the D3 and D300 together. Both cameras were shockers and solid performers. Imagine what a D4 (or D3x) and a D400 combo would be like – with the D4 at 24+ megapixels on an FX sensor and the D400 as a 16 megapixel DX DSLR.
Additionally, the D400, when announced, would almost certainly have the ability to capture HD video like its sibling D90. In fact, I would expect the D400 video capabilities to be closer to that of the Canon 5D Mark II with audio-out capabilities and full 1080p capture.
And, while the timing is a little shorter than typically seen in Nikon’s DSLR cycle, the early (i.e., 12 mos. cycle) announcement of the 15 megapixel Canon 50D may force Nikon’s hand with the D400.
If the Nikon D400 isn’t announced in December 2008, you can almost bank on it for PMA 2009 though.
Stay tuned for the latest news and rumors on the Nikon D400.

It looks great, is reasonably well built and offers decent (though not exceptional) all-round performance.

Photo.net has posted a review of the Nikon D700.
It is merely a slightly reduced D3 while retaining most of the important features. Therefore, the D700’s strengths are essentially the same as the D3’s, minus a few somewhat important but not absolutely critical features such as a 100% viewfinder and dual compact flash card slots, but it is roughly 1/3 cheaper and a lot smaller.

Camera Labs has posted a review of the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T77.
Ultimately, much of the Cyber-shot T77’s appeal comes down to its slim dimensions and touchscreen. Some will fall in love at first sight (and tap), while others will find it hard to hold and often infuriating to operate.

Bob Atkins has published a review of the Canon 50D.
The ultimate test of a camera for me is whether I’d want to own it, and I’d want to own the EOS 50D.

Photography Review has published a full review of the Olympus E-520.
Combine the E-520’s minimal size and built-in image stabilization and you’ve got what I believe is one of the best backpacking cameras available.

The D90 is a trophy of a middleweight camera, with the D-movie HD video mode tagging on an extra medal or two.
