photoxelsHere is this week’s (June 12-18, 2010) digital camera review roundup:
- TrustedReviews reports that the Fujifilm FinePix S2500HD [QuickPrice Check]
is like having “virtually two cameras image quality-wise, as the wide angle and top end of the zoom produce drastically different results.“. The Fujifilm S2500HD is also known as the S2600HD (and previously as the S2550HD?).
- Camera Labs finds that while the entry-level Sony DSC-W310 [QuickPrice Check]
is “an all-round good performer, however, the W310 lacks any outstanding features or qualities… [but] at this price point the Cyber-shot DSC-W310 represents good value for money.“
- Of the TOUGH digital cameras, Steve’s Digicams prefers the Pentax Optio W90 [QuickPrice Check]
: “I truly enjoyed using this little guy, and out of all of the lifeproof models I’ve tested, it “looks” the coolest in my opinion.“
- Imaging Resource likes the Nikon Coolpix P100 [Specs] so much that they “have no problems recommending the Nikon Coolpix P100 as a traveling companion for your next vacation or if you just want a versatile digicam at your fingertips.“
- PhotographyBLOG feels that the Sony alpha DSLR-A450 [QuickPrice Check – UK]
is “an eminently capable but rather uninspiring DSLR that feels like the stop-gap solution that it is, designed to hit a certain price point in the market.“
- Steve’s Digicams is sure the Fujifilm FinePix HS10 [Specs] will “please those who are looking for a step up from their current point-n-shoot, but are not quite ready to take on the dSLR world.“
- DigitalCameraReview agrees that “with a 30x zoom, the HS10 seems to be the ideal camera in any situation. It delivers a big zoom range, but falls short in other areas.“
- DPReview compares compact ultra zooms, aka Travel Zooms.
- TrustedReviews isn’t too keen about the Nikon Coolpix P100 [Specs] finding that it “doesn’t quite deliver on the promises of the specs, but….” Be sure to get a second opinion from our Reviews Matrix.
- DigitalCameraReview has published their Samsung NX10 [Specs] vs. Sony NEX-5A [QuickPrice Check]
Head to Head review, pitting two Digital Interchangeable Lens (DIL) cameras.
- TrustedReviews finds the Panasonic ZS5 / TZ8 [Specs] “an impressive continuation of previous form.“
- Steve’s Digicams likes the Pentax X90 [QuickPrice Check]
finding it “an incredibly versatile Super-Zoom digicam. “
- Imaging Resource finds that with the Sony TX7 [Specs], “Sony has delivered an incredibly stylish, finely designed sub-compact camera that’s a pleasure to shoot with. One of the best and most responsive touchscreens ever released.“
- PhotoRadar is not too impressed with the controls of the Canon IXUS 300 HS / PowerShot SD4000IS [QuickPrice Check]
but otherwise “the new High Speed technology in the Ixus 300 HS delivers everything Canon says, and more.“
- PhotoRadar bemoans the disappointingly over-complicated user interface of the Sony NEX-5 [QuickPrice Check]
but aside from this, “Sony has designed and built an exceptionally small yet powerful hybrid camera which delivers image quality to match a digital SLR’s.“
