Nikon Coolpix P100 Review

Posted 07/07/2010 at 10:38am | by Rod Lawton

The P100 is Nikon’s latest compact superzoom camera. It’s a further refinement of the P80 and P90 models that came before it, with a new backlit 10-megapixel CMOS sensor designed to improve low-light picture quality, a slightly increased 26x zoom range and--most exciting of all--full HD movie mode with stereo sound.

USBfever 8x Telescope with Hard Case for iPhone 3G/3GS

Posted 04/29/2010 at 9:57am | by Leslie Ayers

Comments

Although the camera in the iPhone got a boost to 3 megapixels in the 3G-to-3GS refresh, it’s still not what anyone would call “powerful.” So if you’re among the many iPhone owners who take a lot of photos with your smartphone, it may be time to supersize that built-in camera with an add-on like the USBfever 8X Telescope with Hard Case. What you get for your $29 is a telescope-style fixed optical zoom lens (which attaches to an included case) and a miniature tripod that steadies your iPhone while you shoot photos or video. The lens lets you manually zoom in on a subject up to 8X, so you can get much closer without ever moving a muscle.

Nikon Coolpix S1000pj

Posted 04/12/2010 at 10:35am | by Zack Stern

Comments

A dozen new kinds of point-and-shoot cameras flood electronics stores each year, and that’s often just from a single company. To distinguish itself, Nikon took an interesting approach with its Coolpix S1000pj. Instead of focusing on pictures, this camera shines--literally. It can project photos and movies on a wall so everyone can see them. We like the concept and had fun presenting instant vacation slideshows while still traveling. But the average quality of both its photos and its projection make this camera purely a technoholic’s toy. Discerning photographers and home buyers on a budget should think twice.

When it comes to compact photo printers, we don’t usually hope for a whole lot in the way of extras. That’s because the most we’d expect to pay for a 4x6 photo printer is about 100 bucks, and the initially low cost of printing at home piles up over time as ink and paper are restocked.

Pentax K-7

Posted 03/01/2010 at 10:55am | by jamor

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night can keep the new 14.6MP Pentax K-7 down--tight weather seals and low noise at high ISOs ensure that if you have the chops, this camera will deliver no matter what the conditions. The K-7 retains much of the great feature set of its predecessor, the K-20 (5 out of 5 stars, Dec/08), with a few additions. It now sports a brilliant 3-inch LCD viewscreen, 5.2-frames-per-second continuous shooting, 1/8000-second shutter speed, and a whisper-quiet shutter. Its innards are protected by a weather-resistant body, and HD video capture has been added. All fine improvements.

Canon EOS 7D

Posted 02/01/2010 at 10:56am | by jamor

Comments

Canon’s EOS 7D is a radical departure for the company’s popular EOS family of cameras. It slots in between the prosumer 50D and the full-frame, pro-level 5D Mark II--but a lot of tantalizing functionality lurks within its magnesium-alloy bodywork. Just don’t make the assumption that the 7D is a low-cost alternative to the 5D Mark II--it’s really an entirely different kind of camera. One caveat is that the APS-C–sized sensor is smaller (like in the 50D), so there’s a 1.6x field-of-view adjustment needed for any focal length you use, unlike the full-frame 5D Mark II. But it’s the 7D’s advanced features and affordable price that make it a compelling shooter.

In the video camera market, the term "HD" is thrown around about as much as the word "green" is used in the general consumer market. Both are buzz words intended to lure in customers by making them feel they’re on the cutting-edge of some important new trend. The number of consumer digital video cams that claim to shoot HD is staggering, especially when you consider that most camera companies think shooting in a 16:9 aspect ratio is automatically HD.

Skyla Memoir FS80

The FS80 is an 8-inch digital photo frame that incorporates a 300 dpi scanner. As digiframes go, it’s a winner, with 1GB of onboard memory (to hold about 500 high-quality images), a bright 800x600 screen, handy infrared (IR) remote, and built-in slots to read CF, SD, and xD memory cards. The onscreen menus are easy enough for any second-grader--or slightly tech-savvy grandparent--to navigate.

Canon Digital Rebel T1i vs. Nikon D5000

Coke versus Pepsi. Mac versus PC. Canon versus Nikon. Among these great rivalries, we can only pick out one clear winner. (Here’s a hint: It’s not the colored sugar water.) In the latest Canon-versus-Nikon entry-level digital SLR (single-lens reflex) battle, both cameras score hits against the other.

Stepping up from a point-and-shoot to a DSLR can seem as daunting as trading in your minivan for an 18-wheeler. To ease the transition, Pentax has placed all the controls on its new 10.2MP K2000 to the right of the camera’s bright, 2.7-inch LCD screen—just like on your favorite point-and-shoot.
