Digital Camera Reviews - Lastest Digital Camera Reviews and industry news

Just posted! The second of today’s reviews of upgrades to popular compact cameras; Sony’s P200. This one’s been sitting around half-finished for months now, so we thought we’d better stop bumping it and finish the update. The changes over the P150 (the first 7 megapixel compact to hit the market) are minimal; a slight redesign, a new, larger screen, an additional metering mode and the addition of custom white balance, though pricing is inevitably a lot keener after a year in this fast-moving market.

Just posted! Announced only 6 months after its predecessor, the SD550 (Digital Ixus 750) is the latest in a long line of ultra-compact ‘ELPH’ or ‘IXUS’ cameras stretching back to early 2000, and is a fairly minor upgrade to the SD500 (Ixus 700). Aside from a larger screen (2.5 inch as opposed to 2.0 inch) and a slight redesign of the body and controls, the majority of the changes consist of tweaks to the user interface. Find out how it fared in our concise test after the link.

The Konica Minolta Dynax 5D is an affordable Digital SLR camera equipped with a good sensor, an anti-shake system and an easy to use interface. It is not perfect: auto-focus and storage speed are two areas where speed could be improved. Most importantly, the image quality is very good and users will probably not regret their choice.

Canon has today posted firmware updates for the EOS-1DS Mark II and the EOS-1D Mark II. Both updates fix problems with file numbering that occurred when shooting bulb exposures and also improves communication when using some CompactFlash cards. Version 1.1.4 for the EOS-1Ds Mark II also addresses a problem of horizontal line noise appearing when P.Fn-21 is set to ON.
