'The Olympus E-PL2 is a compact, versatile camera that should please just about anyone who loves taking great pictures without lugging around pounds of gear. '
'When a face is detected, the camera can automatically select the correct AF point, and adjust exposure, white balance, flash output, and other variables to ensure that your subject's face is correctly rendered. '
'The Sony Alpha DSLR-A580 is a high-end digital SLR very similar to the Sony Alpha DSLR-A560.'
'Both cameras feature 3D Sweep Panorama, allowing photographers to capture detail-packed extra-wide panoramas with a huge field of view. 3D panoramas can be enjoyed on any compatible 3D HD television. '
'The NEX cameras are primarily about squeezing DSLR quality into compact bodies.'
'The NEX cameras are a brave and interesting attempt to redefine the camera.'
'The result: the Alpha NEX-3, a compact camera with a huge LCD, huger sensor, and an interchangeable lens that can take photos on a par with larger prosumer DSLRs. '
'This is a good move by Sony as it will aide those who get turned off with the myriad features on offer in a DSLR.'
'A middle-of-the-pack performer, with the exception of very fast start-up times, the D3000 doesn't improve much on the D60. '
'The Nikon D3000 looks and feels expensive; its build is similar to the more-expensive ($999 list, body only) Nikon D90 , but it's more compact (1.16 pounds) with a smaller grip and fewer buttons. '
'If you're an enthusiast photographer and want to learn more about how to take photos in different situations, there is probably no better camera to get your hands on than the Nikon D3000. '
'The slightly mottled plastic around the body is the standard Nikon feel, and overall build quality is excellent considering the price range. '
