Reviews

  • 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.

  • Nikon D300s

    The D300s is a fast, reliable workhorse for the semi-professional or amateur photographer, and it feels great to use and makes picture taking a real pleasure. But if you don't need HD video, you might want to try the plain old D300 instead.

  • Nikon D3000

    As long as you don't expect too many fancy bells and whistles, you won't be disappointed with the quality and performance of the D3000.

  • Olympus E-30

    Though it has been surpassed by its competitors in video and image capturing capabilities, the E-30 presents a fun alternative to a run-of-the-mill dSLR.

  • Nikon AF-S DX 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR

    The Nikon AF-S DX 18-105mm f3.5-5.6G ED VR lens is a good choice for someone who wants more than the basic kit lens has to offer, while remaining compact and lightweight.

  • Sony Alpha DSLR-A900

    A good first try at a pro-level camera, the Sony Alpha DSLR-A900 has the high resolution but unfortunately lacks some of the performance and usability you expect from a model in its price range.

  • Nikon D90

    In the two-party race that will never end, D90 selected D-Movie as its running mate. Upon close examination though, D-Movie was found to be severely underdone. Good thing then that D90's photo-taking base is so strong and competent.
