'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.'
'Its relatively compact size makes it a suitable for anyone who wants similar capabilities to a digital SLR but not the bulky size.'
'GH1 is just as exciting for film-makers and keen photographers alike.'
'In summary, the Panasonic GH1 is better able to compete with the best from Nikon and Canon, and bests other Four Thirds players like the Olympus E-30 and even the Panasonic G1.'
'The X90 can certainly match its main rivals in terms of specification, and is currently selling for around £274, which is fairly competitive. 6 comments.'
'Bottom Line - Pentax's X90 is an incredibly versatile 12.1-Megapixel Super-Zoom digicam, featuring an awesome 26x optical zoom lens with shake reduction, 720p video capture and full manual controls. '
'The Pentax Optio X90 is an entry-level DSLR designed to make the SLR experience less complex for those used to simple point-and-shoot digital cameras.'
'Overall, the Sony A550 and A500 look like good camera designs with some interesting innovations that take advantage of the serious CPU power of Sony's processing chips. '
'The Sony A550 delivers several exciting and unusual capabilities, including in-camera high dynamic range images that come out very well, and a full-resolution burst mode of nearly 7 shots per second. '
'Sony’s Alpha DSLR-A550 is a mid-range DSLR aimed at enthusiasts, featuring 14.2 Megapixels, built-in stabilisation, a vertically-tilting VGA screen, two Live View modes and quick continuous shooting at up to 7fps. '
'On the downside, however, the site found that the A550 sits somewhat uncomfortably between the low and high-end, with its slightly stripped down controls turning off pros, and its rather weak performance in auto mode potentially being a problem for beginners. '
