'Sony's first translucent-mirror camera offers impressive continuous-autofocus capabilities, an amazing burst mode, and excellent image quality to go along with its smaller size. '
'excellent camera'
'Part of a new generation of cameras, the SLT-A55 is truly innovative. '
'Because the Sony Alpha SLT-A55 doesn't have to move a mirror around, Sony has been able to get a remarkable 10 frame-per-second burst rate out of the camera.'
'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. '
' Panasonic has done a good job of mixing intermediate photography features with easy-to-use features in the Lumix G2, making it an ideal entry-level DSLR camera.
'
'We found that the Panasonic G2 is suitable exactly for whom it's designed for: a camera for the compact camera upgrader, who will find welcome in its user-friendly features, rather than the DSLR downgrader who might find the ISO performance a little lacking.'
'Overall, the Panasonic G2 is a big improvement on the G1, offering a refreshing new way to interact with the camera.'
'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. '
'Overall, a good, well-rounded camera, if not a little unremarkable in places due to lack of new innovation. '
'It's a digital SLR that's aimed at people who don't have a big budget and who are perhaps new to digital photography but don't want a camera with a smaller Micro Four Thirds–based system.'
'overall the camera is reassuringly solid with rechargeable NP-FH50 lithium ion battery inserted and the 18-55mm kit lens we were supplied for our test attached.'
'The a290 is certainly an easy camera to learn with, particularly if you don't have much experience with the layout of other manufacturers' camera controls. '
'The Sony Alpha A290 has a body similar to that of the Alpha A230, but with a more traditional grip which should prove more comfortable.'
'It also incorporates a normal grip, rather than the uncomfortable three-quarter-height grip that graced the A230. '
'The Sony A290 uses an APS-C 14.2 megapixel sensor and BIONZ image processor to capture large, high resolution images.'
'I found only one truly irritating feature with the GX-10's design: The latches for the battery and SD Card media doors are small, fold-out twist locks.'
