By Rich Trenholm on 08/02/2008

More Olympus reviews , RRP: AU$599.00

The good:

  • Gorgeous styling
  • Sturdy construction
  • Simple to operate

The bad:

  • Idiosyncratic controls
  • Uninspired feature set
  • Only supports xD card format

The bottomline:

The Olympus Mju 1200 is a slimline, capable point-and-shoot for those more interested in style than photography. A bare-bones feature set and some quirky controls mean that you're paying a premium for the gorgeous style and 12 megapixels.

      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

      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.

      The Canon EOS 1000D is a good entry-level dSLR, but only its photo quality stands out among the competition.

      Nikon D90

      Looking to lure existing Nikonistas, dSLR virgins and the Canon convertee, Nikon has announced the D90, the first digital SLR to feature video recording.
