Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1

The Lumix DMC-GH1 proves that there's fight and fury in the Micro Four Thirds format, with brilliant HD video quality and great still images.

HP Officejet 6000

We like the simplicity of the HP Officejet 6000 single-function inkjet printer, but its lack of an LCD screen takes some getting used to. Nevertheless, it performed well and earns our recommendation as a great single-function printer.

Reviews

  • Brother DCP-165C Multifunction Printer

    We've tested plenty of printers at CNET, but very few have frustrated us as much as the Brother DCP-165C multifunction has. The counter-intuitive set-up, bland design, deplorable print quality and crawling output speeds earn this printer a double thumbs down.

  • 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.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ15

    A 10x optical zoom with a 28mm wide-angle lens sets this point-and-shoot to be one of the favourites among travellers.

  • Olympus E-510

    The Olympus E-510 has quirky exposure and white-balance issues, but its Live View and image stabilisation modes may make some photographers give this SLR a chance.

  • Olympus E-410

    Olympus' compact dSLR for newbies, the Evolt E-410, is a decent choice if you're looking to save space in your bag, but issues with its automatic exposure and white balance make it an unsatisfactory option as a first dSLR.

  • Kensington Contour Roller

    Designed to carry 17-inch laptops, the sturdy Kensington Contour Roller combines suitcase-like construction with the organisation of a laptop bag.

  • Canon EOS 400D

    The Canon 400D remains a very good first dSLR, with a balance of automatic, semi-automatic and manual controls to progress through as your creative photography skills improve.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-L1

    The Panasonic Lumix DMC-L1 is Panasonic's first digital SLR, and it's the second digital SLR to feature a live-view LCD screen.

  • Nikon's new SLR leads the pack for sensor quality

    It's not a surprise that the Nikon D3X, the company's brand new 24.9-megapixel SLR, tops DxO Labs' sensor performance test. What is a surprise is the margin by which it leads its rivals from Canon and Sony.
