'More unusually still at this level, the K-x’s light sensitivity settings can be boosted to a semi-pro equivalent ISO 12,800 for flash free photography in the near dark and 16:9 widescreen format HD video recording – at 1280 x 720 pixels, 24fps, rather than Full HD 1920 x 1080 – marking this out as an affordable all-in-one device. '
'Small and light, the Pentax K-x seems like a well-built, no-nonsense digital SLR'

'all the exposures seem brighter, regardless of metering setting, then they were with the D300.'
'Well-made.'
'lovely, vivid images'
'The button layout is extremely similar to what was used on the D300, so anyone familiar with that camera should have a relatively easy time learning the control interface on the D300S.'
'I'm happy to report that Sony has shipped a digital SLR that I find easy to recommend to anyone'
'It's soft, and loaded with both noise and noise reduction artifacting.'
'the USB connector is located inside the CF card compartment, which means you have to leave the door open while downloading, potentially allowing all sorts of schmutz to get onto the card-slot contacts'
'Sony is providing a full line of accessories for the model, rechargeable battery packs and several carrying cases'
'one of the more compelling SLRs launched this season.'
'There's even a built-in RSS reader for subscribing to Olympus-related newsfeeds,'
'the E-3 is a totally new camera that has obviously been designed to go head-to-head with the likes of Nikon's D300 and Canon's 40D at the very top of the market,'
'The E-3 offers speedy burst shooting and image throughput.'
