Canon Legria HF20

As far as mid-range camcorders go, there's not much to fault the Canon Legria HF20 for; the image quality is good, the autofocus speedy and feature list fairly full.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35

The FZ35 should be at the top of any potential superzoom buyer's list, with a fully featured specification sheet and good image quality.

Reviews

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1

    Sony's DSC-TX1 is an exciting step forward for compact cameras, pushing for better image quality rather than more megapixels — and it pulls it off in style.

  • 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.

  • Canon IXUS 120 IS

    This is a great little compact camera equipped with pretty much everything you could ask for, like HD video and a stylish body, so we've awarded it our Editors' Choice award.

  • Fujifilm FinePix F70EXR

    The FinePix F70EXR has a lot to offer underneath its standard exterior, like its 10x optical zoom.

  • Eco Reader

    Finally, an ebook reader comes to the Australian market — with claims of open file format support and long battery life to boot.

  • Altec Lansing inMotion Max

    For its price, the inMotion Max is a very decent iPhone-compatible speaker dock. It makes up for the lack of features with decent audio quality and portability.

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1

    As long as you don't want to make enlargements from full-sized images, the DSC-HX1 is an interesting, fully featured superzoom. Just beware of that exorbitant price.

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W230

    At a reasonably low price for budget shoppers, the W230 has quite a few nice features. Unfortunately, the camera has a lens that is not too sturdy, below par image quality and a battery life that will disappoint.
