'12.1 megapixels offers unparalleled resolution for a compact camera, while the powerful 6x optical zoom with Optical Image Stabilizer Technology delivers clear, blur-free images in low light and all through the zoom range'
'The digital zoom's magnified pixels looked awful in low-light situations.'
'a camera that could really appeal to an enthusiast'
'It's a small and tough package, with a rubberised grip on the right-hand side and precise, almost military-looking controls.'
'With the GX100, Ricoh has set out to combine the quality, performance and versatility of a high-end semi-pro camera with the convenience and portability of a pocket compact.'
'It has everything I am personally looking for in a compact camera'
'a 1/1.8-inch CCD sensor and 12x optical zoom lens'
'Images shot at high ISOs are noisy.'
'the FZ20 sports a Leica-branded DC Vario-Elmarit zoom with a whopping 12x optical range (35-420mm equiv), though this time without the constant F2.8 aperture.'
'The Panasonic LX1 is choked full of features: 60-1/2,000 sec. shutter speed range'
'So, while the good news is that shooting in RAW mode allows the LX-1 to perform
at its best, the RAW software provided by Panasonic is simply dreadful.'
'nice Leica Vario-Elmarit DC 4x optical zoom lens.'
'the LX1 features a two-mode MEGA OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) system'
'No camera is perfect -- the C-7000Z has some flaws worth mentioning,'
'this sleek metal model looks positively petite.'
'The world's smallest 7.1-megapixel, 5x optical zoom digital camera packs numerous advanced technologies for ultra-high image quality into an incredibly compact body with a convenient, easy-to-carry size'
'The A95 does not support the TIFF or RAW file formats'
'finally, the plastic CompactFlash slot cover is a bit flimsy and clumsy to open.'
'The main of the A95's body is composed of a solid magnesium-alloy (with silver plastic doors and covers) so it lacks the cheapish feel of the Kodak which is plastic all-over.'
