Digital cameras reviews

Canon EOS 50D

Canon EOS 50D

The 50D is remarkably similar to the 40D in terms of performance, looks and features — but if you can spare the extra cash, it's a much nicer package.

Fujifilm FinePix J100

Fujifilm FinePix J100

The J100 is definitely a point-and-shoot — because you can't do anything else with it.

Olympus E-520

Olympus E-520

The E-520 adds an appealing range of features to the existing Olympus line-up of dSLRs, but mostly for the first-time buyer. Apart from image stabilisation built into the body and the ability to use older lenses on the Four Thirds system, there is not much that really sets the E-520 apart from other cameras in its class.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T700

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T700

Sony's T700 is a winner in the looks department, but beneath the brushed metal exterior lies a clever way to share photos. With 4GB of internal memory and a 3.5-inch LCD touchscreen, the T700 is a good, if slightly expensive camera, especially given that image quality isn't always up to scratch.

Fujifilm FinePix F60fd

Fujifilm FinePix F60fd

It may not be brimming with new features and the controls are all over the shop, but the Fujifilm FinePix F60fd looks great and so do the pictures. Capable automatic settings make this a true point-and-shoot, with clever face detection helping it stand out from the crowd. We just wish it weren't so confusing.

Sony Alpha DSLR-A900

Sony Alpha DSLR-A900

The A900's main claim to fame is its 24-megapixel full-frame (the size of a 35mm frame of film) sensor, the highest resolution in a dSLR to date.

Olympus Mju 1060

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?

Olympus FE-320

Olympus FE-320

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

The LX3 is a good camera with an excellent feature set that positions it way beyond any conventional point-and-shoot on the retail shelves today.

Canon EOS 1000D

Canon EOS 1000D

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

Kodak EasyShare M1020

Kodak EasyShare M1020

Despite the large screen and Quick Touch Border feature, the M1020 is priced at AU$349 which is a bit pricey for a digital frame that freezes all too often.
