Reviews

  • Nikon D3S

    The Nikon D3S is the replacement for the professional workhorse, the D3, and sits alongside the D3X at the top of the Nikon FX sensor line-up.

  • Nikon Coolpix S610

    The S610 is a 10 megapixel compact with a 4x optical zoom.

  • Dell Inspiron 15

    The Dell Inspiron 15 is likely the best bang for buck you'll get for AU$1000, from its battery life to its upgrade options. We do miss the numpad, but the rest is perfect for the budget-conscious user.

  • Toshiba Satellite L500D

    We like the Toshiba Satellite L500D, it's amazing value for its price. However, we think it's worth paying the extra AU$200 for the version with the less power hungry GPU.

  • AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED

    The 18-200mm is a DX-format lens with Nikon's series II vibration reduction technology, and covers an equivalent magnification of 11.1x.

  • AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II

    The 70-200mm is a new telephoto lens from Nikon, incorporating a new vibration reduction mechanism which can be put in normal or active mode depending on the type of image stabilisation required.

  • Nikon Coolpix S70

    The S70 features an OLED capacitive touchscreen, allowing you to pinch your fingers on the screen to zoom in or out on images, and a single touch shutter operation.

  • Nikon Coolpix S570

    With a thin design, the S570 is a 12 megapixel camera with a 5x optical zoom and a 28mm wide angle lens.
