The EX-F1 actually delivers two marquee features, though after playing with the camera for the first few days we'd developed a marked preference for one over the other. The camera can shoot both stills and super-slow-motion videos; a quick side trip ...

Where this camera became nearly irresistible for us, though, wasn't shooting goofy video, but taking advantage of the extraordinary continuous-shooting rate. Run-of-the-mill SLRs shoot three pictures a second, high-end pro SLRs can reach 9 or 10 ...

The TL34HD is a new pocket-size touch-screen camera from Samsung, boasting a high 14.7-megapixel resolution and a 3.6x zoom, wide-angle lens, with a list price of $299.99

The Fujifilm FinePix F60fd has the same list price as the Samsung TL34HD ($299), but it's bulkier, lacks the touch-screen and offers a lower, 12-megapixel resolution. It generally performed worse than the TL34HD in our labs, but it has some superior ...

Sony's T line of digital point-and-shoot cameras is known for being slim, sexy and hitting your pocketbook hard. The DSC-T700 is no exception. Currently available for $399.99 in a variety of colors, the camera is only 0.66 inches (16 mm) deep, and ...

While the camera is indisputably gorgeous, there was obviously some preference given to form over function, as the lens is located on the top right, where it can easily get covered with a finger. Additionally, with a screen that takes up the entire ...

The Sony HDR-TG1 ($899 MSRP) is a portable, full 1920 x 1080 high definition camcorder that records video and still images solely to MemoryStick cards. Its stylish design, with a refined two-tone color scheme and streamlined body, brings a unique look ...

The HDR-TG1 records in AVCHD format, which is the new standard for high definition camcorders. Although capable of producing glorious picture quality, AVCHD does have a downside if you are interested in editing your footage. Because AVCHD footage is ...

Released in March 2008, the Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS is a sleek, sexy point-and-shoot. Many people like to match their personality to their digital camera, and the Canon SD1100 does not disappoint, with interesting color options like Bohemian Brown ...

The SD1100 is very similar to its sibling camera, the PowerShot SD750, with one large exception - the SD1100 shrinks the size of the LCD by half an inch to include a rarity on modern point-and-shoots: an optical viewfinder. It's super tiny, though, ...

Just about every major manufacturer has an entry-level point-and-shoot with barebones specifications. Here's another one. The Nikon Coolpix S510 makes an unexciting entrance into a packed market of similar cameras with basic 3x optical zoom lenses and ...

The S510 limits manual control, which beginners will appreciate. However, there are limited built-in editing options, which these same users might find useful. The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T70 offers much more in this area. Video is much improved from its ...

The 8-megapixel Olympus Stylus 830 combines an extended 5x optical zoom lens with the slim case of a pocket-friendly point-and-shoot. Few current digital cameras combine the same skinny body with an extended zoom lens.  The Stylus 830 features a 2.5 ...

Although it has impressive specs, the Stylus 830 fails to deliver in image quality. Colors are dramatically inaccurate, especially yellows, greens, and blues. This makes photos of blue skies and green foliage look dull. White balance is equally bad, ...

The new resolution high bar for compact digital cameras has been set at 12.1 megapixels - and the Nikon Coolpix S700 is up to the challenge. Along with a high resolution, the S700 has a stabilized 3x optical zoom lens, a 2.7-inch LCD screen, and ...

The S700 includes an updated face detection system that can recognize up to 12 faces at a time and has an ISO range from 64-2000, all at full resolution. The 3.5 x 2.1 x 0.9-inch slim camera has flat surfaces that are great for shoving in a pocket but ...

It seems like a good idea for Nikon to pair wireless connectivity, a bold feature, with a camera that also has strong image quality. This, unfortunately, is not the case. We tested the Nikon Coolpix S51c in our imaging lab and it performed below ...

The slim S51c's body is smooth and almost feels greasy. It is nice to stroke, but awful to handle. The controls are tiny and there just isn't much to hang onto. It's the compact size that makes it so convenient for cramming into a pocket though

Announced in August, 2007, the $399 Canon PowerShot A650 IS currently sits atop Canon's budget A-series line. The 12-megapixel camera improves upon its predecessor, the PowerShot A640 in several ways, including a higher megapixel count, a face ...

Canon advertises the A650 IS as having "more features for less." It certainly has a plethora of features, though still comparable to similarly priced ultra-zoom options from competitors such as Sony and Panasonic. Image quality is impressive, ...
