Pentax K-m

We like the K-m and the image quality it offers, but having to fumble over the inconsistent metering and white balance can be an issue for users not familiar with manual exposure controls.

Samsung Jet

The Samsung Jet is an excellent touchscreen device that packs a heap of features that would keep most people entertained for some time.

Reviews

  • Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch (June 2009)

    Apple's 15-inch MacBook Pro makes only minor tweaks to the previous version, but cutting prices and swapping the ExpressCard slot for an SD card slot are enough to make it a solid improvement over its predecessor.

  • Ricoh CX1

    For a very reasonable price of AU$599 you get a proficient compact camera with heaps of features, great dynamic range and, dare we say, sexy styling for a Ricoh. Pity about the noise issues and lack of HD video, then.

  • Apple MacBook Pro (13-inch, June 2009)

    Previously known as the MacBook, Apple's basic 13-inch aluminium unibody laptop has been promoted to the "Pro" series, all while adding features and cutting the base price.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7

    Even though it's no longer the sole contender in the travel camera category, the TZ7 still stands far above its competitors. If it wasn't for the clunky mode dial and lack of manual controls, we would have no qualms about recommending the TZ7.

  • Olympus E-620

    If you've been hankering after an Olympus E-30 but baulked at the price, don't despair ... just get the E-620 instead. It's a competent, capable digital SLR in the vein of its older sibling, but a lot smaller and cheaper.

  • LG Viewty Smart

    The name may mislead some into thinking that the Viewty Smart is a smartphone, but it isn't. The Viewty Smart picks up where the earlier Viewty left off, with a higher-resolution 8-megapixel camera and spruced-up user interface.

  • Nikon Coolpix S220

    We never thought that we'd describe a camera as cute, but we were wrong — the S220 is quite possibly the cutest little compact you can buy, with striking good looks for a relatively low asking price. It's letdown by the lens quality though, which detracts from the overall prettiness of the package.

  • Nikon D3X

    Normally we would express disappointment with a camera being overly similar to a predecessor, but not in this instance. Nikon has improved, refined and upped the megapixel count from the D3 to produce a professional-grade camera with every function you could ever wish for, apart from video recording.
