'The grip-less camera feels surprisingly good in the hand, thanks to thoughtful ideas like a small but well placed thumb rest on the rear panel.'
'carry-anywhere all-purpose camera'
'The best part about the Olympus XZ-1 was the fact that its image quality backed its hardware, and the camera proved itself a well-equipped tool that excelled when it came to manual controls.'
'The Nikon P7000 is a serious camera for those serious about photography but don't want to commit to a DSLR. '
'In our tests, the Nikon Coolpix P7000 also did the best job of in-camera editing: After snapping a shot, you can choose to have the camera automatically enhance the image via Nikon's Active D Lighting correction, Quick Retouch mode, or skin softening; and you can even apply filters such as a Miniature Mode setting.'
'Using the P7000 was an enjoyable experience for us.'
'the camera feels fairly sturdy with the exception of the right side, which is capped by plastic with part of it being a door covering the mini HDMI and USB/AV port.'
'Shadow detail is somewhat limited, due mostly to the camera's noise suppression efforts.'
'consumers a great compact camera'
'Screen brightness is manually adjustable (five steps), though even with the brightness maxed, there's too much glare off the display's coating to effectively use the camera in bright, direct sunlight.'
'Furthermore, having to rotate the lens ring in order to change the exposure settings means that the camera can't always be held steady — with the conventional controls, your left hand is always holding the camera steady as you change settings. '
'decent compact system camera'
'The Samsung NX100 digital camera has a 14.6-megapixel resolution and combines professional image quality with some features that make the camera really easy to use without actually being a professional. '
'Samsung's made a number of minor tweaks to the software allowing a greater degree of customisation, while the camera and two new kit lenses debut the company's new i-Function feature.'
