'The G12, which updates the acclaimed G11, is an option for those who want better pictures and better features than a less well specified compact will deliver, but don't actually want to go the whole hog and plump for a DSLR.'
'the camera is replete with advanced shooting features.'
'I'm happy to say, 4 months later, I made a great choice in chosing this camera.'
'Unfortunately, if you want to adjust those exposure settings, you're forced to adjust them all individually; the camera lacks shutter- and aperture-priority modes.'
'Digital IS (anti-blur scene mode) will automatically select a high ISO to help eliminate or reduce blur due to camera shake and/or subject movement.'
'By ISO 800, noise increased to the Unacceptable level'
'image stabilization, a decent movie mode, long battery'
'digital image stabilization and an amazing sensitivity range of 50 to 4000 ISO'
'lack of sharp focus.'
'manually enabled popup flash is fairly weak - maximum flash range (in auto ISO mode) is just short of 15 feet; not very impressive for a camera with a 10X zoom.'
'JPEG shooters will also welcome the new ability to completely deactivate in-camera sharpening.'
'This is likely to cause many a mix-up when talking about the camera, because the name D30 is still engraved in the memory of many seasoned photographers.'
'This system takes several readings across the frame, then settles on a proper exposure based on a digital evaluation that can recognize backlighting and other problematic lighting conditions.'
'It's not the most user friendly manual out there'
'Taking its third stab at creating a hard drive-less digital camcorder which relies solely on memory cards for storage, Sanyo presents an interesting offer in the VPC-C5'
'More than just a go-anywhere accessory, the Xacti C5 stands out as a positive fashion statement.'
'Recycle time between shots is an unimpressive 3.6 seconds and nearly 4.9 seconds with flash.'
'Unfortunately, without a video out port, users will only be able to export video and still images through either the memory card or the USB port located on the right side of the camera.'
'It has fast operations, and provides flexible exposure control.'
'its 1.5-inch LCD seems puny in the current market.'
