Reviews

  • Yamaha RX-V663

    The Yamaha RX-V663 sounds great, but it's tough to recommend with its paltry HDMI connectivity, poor upconversion quality, and other design quirks.

  • Canon EOS 1000D

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

  • Sony Alpha DSLR-A350

    Unless you're prepared to spend a disproportionate amount on a really good lens, the resolution bump offered by the Sony Alpha DSLR-A350 isn't worth the price.

  • Nikon D60

    Despite modest improvements in performance and a couple of new features, Nikon's D60 fails to impress and costs more than some competing models.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX100

    If you absolutely must have a 12-megapixel compact camera, the DMC-FX100 isn't a bad choice, but you can find better performing cameras with lower pixel counts for the same money.

  • Canon EOS 450D

    It doesn't stand out for its feature set or design, but the Canon EOS 450D delivers on performance and photo quality.

  • Creative Live Cam Optia AF

    If remote video surveillance or time-lapse photography is something you want to do with a Webcam, the Creative Live Cam Optia AF is a good pick. For all others, Logitech has a better (and slightly cheaper) Webcam.

  • Dell XPS M1730

    When most desktop replacements tend to target power users or entertainment seekers, the Dell XPS M1730 makes no bones about being a gaming machine.

  • Higher resolutions: 12-megapixel cameras
