Here is this week’s (Aug 14-20, 2010) digital camera review roundup:
- TrustedReviews rates the Sony alpha DSLR-A450 [QuickPrice Check – UK] as a DSLR with “ outstanding performance, but … save up a bit more and get an A500 or A550 instead.“
- byThom is an expert in Nikon DSLRs and makes a surprising recommendation concerning the Nikon D3000 [Specs]: “There’s only one group that I can recommend the camera to, and that is sophisticated DSLR users who want to build a small, light prime set.“
- PhotographyBLOG can’t recommend the Kodak EasyShare M580 [QuickFact Sheet] which “in use proves to be a case of style over substance, with fiddly top plate controls and sluggish response times.“
- DCRP (dcresource) is not too impressed with the Casio EX-FH100 [QuickPrice Check] only recommending that “if you’re after a camera which can record photos and videos very quickly, then the Exilim EX-FH100 is worth a look.“
- Steve’s Digicams highly recommends the Canon EOS Rebel T2i / 550D [Specs] as “an impressive dSLR [offering] unmatched performance.“
- TrustedReviews tests the HP Photosmart Wireless B110a.
- PDN reviews the Leica Summilux-M 35mm f/1.4 ASPH Lens that you can buy for a mere $4,995.
- PhotographyBLOG recommends the Panasonic DMC-FX75 / FX70 [QuickPrice Check] finding that “the touchscreen interface is well-thought out, extending the FX550’s hybrid approach so that most options are set directly via the LCD.“
- TechRadar is disappointed with the Sony alpha DSLR-A390 [QuickPrice Check] which it rates as “a decent enough camera for the money. Score: 3/5“
- PhotographyBLOG highly recommends the Sony Alpha DSLR-A550 [QuickPrice Check] concluding that “there’s no denying that the A550 is another user-friendly DSLR camera from Sony that delivers excellent results for both beginners and shutterbugs alike.“
- Of course, a number of manufacturers announced their 2010-2011 models: Nikon announced the S5100, S1100pj and D3100, plus 4 new lenses. Canon announced the S95, SD4500 IS and SX130 IS and 2 new pixma printers. Fujifilm announced the Real 3D W3.
