Reviews

  • Olympus SP-570 Ultra Zoom

    The 10-megapixel SP-570UZ boasts a 20x optical zoom lens, but poor performance diminishes its potential as an otherwise solid superzoom.

  • Kodak EasyShare Z712 IS

    The Kodak EasyShare Z712 IS gives far more than it takes, producing quality digital photos without the learning curve. It is a great-value purchase for both the casual and the creative photographer, even if its average looks fail to distinguish it from the crowd.

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-D9

    If you shoot primarily outdoors in daytime -- especially sports, children and animals -- the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H9 is a great choice. The cheaper DSC-H7 has a smaller LCD, lacks infrared shooting, and has a few interface differences, but is otherwise identical.

  • Fujifilm FinePix S5700

    The Fuji FinePix S5700 is a sturdy, mid-priced camera for those hoping to achieve that greater degree of creative freedom with their photos. However, those shy of undergoing its learning curve may overlook its strengths and possibilities.

  • Canon PowerShot S5 IS

    Though it remains a good megazoom, thanks to continued image and lens artifacts, the Canon PowerShot S5 IS is slowly losing ground to competitors.

  • Fujifilm FinePix S5600fd

    The FinePix S6500fd is a lightweight megazoom which performs well in low-light with high ISO settings. But if you are a sports photographer, there are better cameras out there.

  • Nikon Coolpix P5000

    A few performance issues with the Nikon Coolpix P5000 diminish the appeal of an otherwise nice compact camera for amateurs.

  • Olympus SP-550 Ultra Zoom

    The Olympus SP-550UZ would be a great travel camera, or a second camera with a wide focal range, at a competitive price.
