I’ve decided to post some sample photos from the Canon PowerShot S90 and Panasonic Lumix GF1 cameras, since I had both with me today. I hope no one thinks this is a true, head-to-head fight: It’s NOT; the compact Canon S90 and entry-level SLR-class Panasonic GF1 are two completely different animals.
The Canon PowerShot S90 has the advantage of being small and light (it’s about the same size as an old Digital IXUS/ELPH I have), with dual control dials; while the Panasonic Lumix GF1 has a big image sensor and lens interchangeability. But both have full manual controls, produce 4:3 ratio photos and, after my mathematical calculations, bundled lens/resolution combinations that could offset each other to produce similar sized crops without resizing.
What you WILL get out of this little article is a sneak preview of production-level sample images from both cameras before I post their respective reviews. Some might also get a shock from reading my final thoughts… so go on and hit the link for all the juicy details and production-quality photos.

Yes, I’m keeping to the promise I made to readers back in August, so here’s my review of the Nikon Coolpix S70. It’s Nikon’s third touchscreen camera and the Coolpix S70 takes things one step further with a new touchscreen UI (Again!) and multi-touch support. Head on to the Nikon Coolpix S70 photo gallery to view sample photos as well.
Brad: DPInterface is just as pumped up about the holiday season as you readers out there so look forward to plenty of camera reviews coming soon. This review got delayed because I was busy covering the Olympus PEN E-P2 launch last week.

And here it is, our preview of Olympus’ latest Micro Four Thirds camera, the PEN E-P2! The Olympus E-P2 is an evolutionary upgrade and is pretty similar to the E-P1 PEN announced in July, but sports several tweaks. Hit the link for all the juicy details about the camera, and also remember to head on to the Olympus E-P2 PEN photo gallery for image samples.
*Note from Brad: A big thank you to the folks at Olympus who made previewing of the PEN E-P2 on DPInterface possible. And another special thanks to them for giving the green light to make our preview gallery available to readers.

DPInterface Exclusive: Canon EOS 1D Mark IV preview (in-person). Here’s the third and final part of our extensive coverage of the newly announced Canon EOS 1D Mark IV, the moment you’ve been waiting for – our preview!
After previewing the very hot Panasonic Lumix GF1 last month (whose final review will be completed soon), I’ve been writing full reviews of cameras and didn’t think I would be writing another preview so soon. But then again, I didn’t see this one coming – I was recently given the chance to see, hear and feel a Canon EOS 1D Mark IV in person: a chance I couldn’t pass up.
The Canon EOS 1D Mark IV is Canon’s latest professional digital SLR, the much-awaited successor to the EOS 1D Mark III. Canon made several nice improvements here and there to its new flagship, the 1D Mark IV to please more photographers (hopefully, especially with the new AF system).

The second of our three part series about the Canon EOS 1D Mark IV is a comparison of the EOS 1D Mark IV versus its predecessor, the old EOS 1D Mark III. The Canon EOS 1D Mark IV brings several minor improvements as well as two big new features: the new 16 megapixel CMOS sensor and improved AF system. I’ve compiled all the changes into the handy table below:
