Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX1

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX1

By Jeff Keller

You can see that in some respects, the WX1 is actually a step down from the cheaper W290. It has a smaller LCD, the lens is slower at full telephoto, it doesn't support conversion lenses, and it has fewer playback mode features. Aside from that, ...

Olympus E-P2

Olympus E-P2

By Jeff Keller

It's hard to draw conclusions about how the E-P1's battery life compares to other interchangeable lens cameras, since most manufacturers don't publish live view battery life numbers. The E-P1's battery life is comparable to the two Panasonic Micro ...

The E-P1 will initially be available with two lenses, which Olympus is branding as "M. Zuiko". There's an F2.8, 17 mm "pancake" lens, plus a more traditional F3.5-5.6, 14 - 42 mm zoom lens. The 14 - 42 is rather unique in that it can "collapse", to ...

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX580

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX580

By Jeff Keller

The DMC-FX580 comes in second place here, no thanks to the impressive numbers put up by the Casio Exilim EX-Z450. In the group as a whole, the FX580's numbers are well above average.

Canon IXUS 990 IS / PowerShot SD970 IS / IXY 830 IS

I hope that makes your camera shopping a little bit easier!

Canon was the last manufacturer to include memory cards with their cameras. They didn't switch to internal memory, though -- they don't include any memory at all! Thus, you'll need to bring your own card, and I'd suggest a 2GB SD or SDHC card to start ...

Samsung HZ15W

Samsung HZ15W

By Jeff Keller

The Casio Exilim EX-H10 pretty much spoils the party for the other cameras in the group, with its unbelievable 1000 shot/per charge battery life. If you take that camera out of the equation, then you'll find that the Samsung HZ15W's battery life is ...

Like most cameras these days, the HZ15W has built-in memory, instead of having a memory card included in the box. Samsung put relatively little memory into the HZ15 (21MB to be exact), which holds just three photos at the highest quality setting. Thus ...

None of the cameras include memory cards. Instead, they have memory built right in, ranging from 22MB on the Olympus to 47MB on the Kodak and Nikon. You'll certainly want to add more memory, and all of the cameras except for the SP-590UZ support SD ...
