An outstanding consumer DSLR and liberating video recorder, Canon's new flagship Rebel is a powerhouse media device in a small and relatively affordable package. What I think of as killer features, however, may not be viewed as such by the buying population at large. Its main selling points are a highly improved LCD, a more complete video mode than its predecessor, and of course an increase in ...

I initially wrote about ExpoTV a little over two years ago when I first discovered it. I was using the site to make some extra cash just for making videos reviewing household objects. I eventually ran out of things to review, but that was a while ago and I decided to have another look at the site. Turns out they recently shifted to a new points format, but the premise is still the same: you set up a camcorder, webcam, or even the video mode of a digital camera and then review any product in yo
Call me an old fart, but I really think all SLRs--D or otherwise--should be black. Pentax , however thinks differently. Their new entry-level DSLR, the K-x comes in red. And white, navy blue and--thank goodness--black. Its other features include a 12.4 megapixel CMOS censor, live view (!), HD video mode and a 2.7" LCD. You can pre-order one at Amazon for about $650. You can read more about it at DP Review, which also has a quick hands-on . Via.
The Samsung i8910 is a very special phone. It’s the only handset in the world capable of recording video in HD quality. Sure, other handsets might plaster their packaging with HD branding, but none of them actually record video in the pin-sharp format. That trick is pulled off solely by the i8910 HD. And what a trick it is. Fire up the 8 megapixel camera, flick it into video mode and you’ll be able to shoot footage in 720p. Now, we’re aware video purists will decry that for not being full H

I recently had a chance to write a Olympus E-620 review after testing a review model. Even though this entry-level DSLR camera has no video mode, it contains a variety of features that will appeal to beginner and intermediate photographers. Unlike many entry-level DSLR models, you can use interchangeable lenses with the E-620, giving it some versatility. It has a handy size and a sturdy feel, which allowed me to operate it one-handed. However, some other reviewers did not like the E-620's s
Photography Blog 's just put up a rather exhaustive review of Canon's PowerShot SX200 IS . If you've already forgotten, this little guy boasts a 12 megapixel sensor, a 12x optical zoom, and a 3-inch LCD. Among the standout features of the cam, they like the PASM creative shooting modes, and its versatile 12x zoom lens. Drawbacks for the camera include its video mode, LCD (which is a lower ...

For some reason, some folks are distracted by the video mode found on the Nikon D90, forgetting all about the fact that this is a very good still image camera. In a review at NeoCamera, they’re quick to remind you: this is an exceptional DSLR. Image quality is great, with a 12 megapixels sensor capable of large prints up to ISO 1600 and even small prints at ISO 6400. The Nikon D90 always remains responsive with a very short shutter lag, perfect for candid and street photography. -NeoCamer

The good Tilting flip LCD screen Innovative new system Compact design Fantastic image quality The bad Underexposes all the time Over-zealous sensor that switches between viewfinder and LCD Limited compatible lenses No video mode Panasonic's Lumix DMC-G1 is the first camera to be based on the micro four thirds system, a joint initiative between Panasonic and Olympus.
