'The SX20's video quality is very decent as well.'
'It's image quality is superb, the controls and menu are easy to use, and its video mode is almost good enough to make you leave your dedicated camcorder at home when you go on holidays.'
'This is a very competent camera and a good value considering its feature set. '
'the Canon PowerShot SX10 is lightweight.'
'With a monumental 20x optical zoom lens and DSLR styled architecture, this camera will fool most onlookers into thinking you freelance for the New York Times. '
'The PowerShot S5 was easily one of the best cameras in the ultra zoom class.'
'I did find the dioptric adjustment knob a little difficult to work, though, as it was so close to the viewfinder, and on the wrong side for a right-eye-dominant person like myself.'
'The K200D's version is a little more subtle than Canon's Highlight Tone Priority--at least the version I saw in the 1Ds Mark III --though that camera is an unfair comparison, to say the least.'
'I tend to feel that the company's DSLRs seem to have the heaviest construction of any cameras in their price class,'
'dust and water resistant'

'It's hard to tell which is softer in the corners, the wide or tele shots, but the telephoto end is strongly influenced by the chromatic aberration in the scene.'
'At ISO 1600, noise was very noticeable despite noise suppression'
'The problem is that they only save 3 images at a burst, which compares poorly with competing cameras, and limits the usefulness of a burst mode in the first place – a 3-frame sequence won't tell the story of a sports play, or a bouquet toss, et cetera.'
'It runs on four AA-sized batteries which makes it easy and convenient to find replacement power almost anywhere'
'The K100D and K110D digital SLRs were announced in May 2006, aimed as a straight replacement for the *ist DS series (actually the DS2) these two SLRs are designed to appeal to the affordable end of the digital SLR market but don't compromise on features.'
'The unwashed, pixel-obsessed masses will no doubt complain about the 6.1-megapixel CCD sensor,'
'With a 6.1 megapixel APS-format sensor, a maximum ISO of 3200, a 2.5-inch, 210,000 pixel display, RAW file capability, and a street price of about $750 with lens included, it's very competitive.'
'the degree of compatibility is still remarkable.'
'LCD monitor in a compact high-rigidity stainless-steel body.'
'Pentax says that a digital SLR can never be too light or too simple.'
