JVC Everio GZ-MS130

The MS130 is a nice, albeit run-of-the-mill, flash-memory-based standard-def camcorder.

Samsung ST550

Self-portrait screen or not, this camera marks Samsung's coming of age. Aside from a few too many megapixels and battery life that's too short, it's a delight to behold and use.

Reviews

  • Nikon Coolpix S640

    The S640 boasts dSLR-like responsiveness and good pictures but is let down by its price and lack of competitive features like HD video.

  • Fujifilm FinePix S200EXR

    The S200EXR stands on its own as a hybrid between a superzoom and SLR, with a 14.3x optical zoom lens and Fuji's Super CCD sensor. Expect great pictures but be prepared for backaches.

  • 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.

  • Canon EOS 7D

  • 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.

  • Canon EOS 1D Mark IV

    The big daddy of digital SLR cameras has arrived — ladies and gentlemen, start your engines.
