Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T30: Compare

By Damian Koh on 03/05/2006

More Sony reviews , RRP: AU$799.00

The good:

  • Large three-inch LCD screen
  • Optical image stabilisation
  • 58MB of built-in memory

The bad:

  • Bulky design
  • Flimsy battery and memory stick compartment cover
  • Camera's back tends to retain fingerprints
  • Slow flash recharge cycle
  • No unlimited continuous shooting mode
  • Noisy images at ISO 800 and ISO 1,000

The bottomline:

The slightly bulkier Cyber-shot T30 (compared with the Cyber-shot T9) is targeted at those looking for a compact-sized shooter with a large LCD screen.

      Olympus Mju 1060

      In this season of offerings, we've noticed two growing trends among manufacturers: touchscreen-enabled or ultra-high resolution point-and-shoots. But Olympus' latest darling in its Mju family, the Mju 1060 has neither. So does this new shooter have what it takes to pit itself against other more sophisticated compacts?

      It is easy to like the FE-320 for its stylish looks and feature-rich specifications. But what we like to applaud Olympus for is in making things work.

      Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3

      It has been about two years since Panasonic's last LX-series camera, the DMC-LX2, was launched. One of the most interesting things about that model was its 16:9 aspect ratio sensor and a good range of manual controls not usually found in digital compact cameras. We spent a day with the upcoming successor to the LX2, the DMC-LX3. Here's what we found out.
