Digital camera buying guide

So you're looking for a brand new compact digital camera? CNET Australia is here to help with our guide to choosing and buying a compact digital camera.

Sony PSP Go

We love its slimmer, sexier, more pocket-friendly shape, as well as its pause and restore anywhere feature, but the PSP Go doesn't quite add enough to the mix to justify its price tag.

Reviews

  • Sony Ericsson W705

    Average call quality on an otherwise killer music mobile. The W705 ticks most of the right boxes, and is cute as a button, but is letdown in a few key areas.

  • Sanyo PLV-Z3000

    Sanyo's affordable 1080p front projector has its share of flaws, but still represents respectable value in its category.

  • Panasonic PT-AE3000

    The Panasonic PT-AE3000 is a 3LCD projector which features a native 1080p resolution, three HDMI ports and "Frame Creation technology".

  • Yamaha YSP-600

    The Yamaha YSP-600 is a very good solution for people who want a simple system that sounds great, but look elsewhere for style or features.

  • Yamaha YSP-3000

    If you can look past its limited video capabilities, the Yamaha YSP-3000 is an otherwise recommendable single-speaker solution for home theater buyers who don't want a traditional 5.1 channel surround system.

  • Sony PSP-3000

    With its impressive game library, lower price and expanded feature set, it's certainly a much better deal than the original PSP — and it's even better than the PSP 2000. While its media and online functions won't necessarily replace a dedicated AV device or laptop, it will be good for most portable gaming and multimedia needs.

  • Samsung LA40A650

    The Samsung LA40A650 is a very good all-rounder which particularly shines in high definition, but it's facing some talented competition.

  • HP TouchSmart IQ505a

    The second generation TouchSmart as just a panel PC is gorgeous. The AU$1,999 price is fantastic as well — but we can't help but feel that there's so much more potential in the touchscreen aspect being left, ahem, untapped.
