Panasonic Lumix SZ1 and Lumix SZ7 ultra-thin super-zoom cameras
It seems like it’s raining cameras today and Panasonic has a pair of ultra-thin super-zoom cameras to show you. While neither model has a price nor a release date just yet, we are guessing that these two cameras will be relatively affordable compared to the higher-end Lumix TZ-series based on their specifications. The Lumix SZ1 measures under an inch thin, yet packs a huge 10X optical zoom lens.
Lumix SZ1: 16 megapixel traditional […]
Panasonic Lumix FH6 and Lumix FH8 compact cameras
Panasonic just introduced a pair of compact point-and-shoot digital camera models. These cameras are pretty straight forward: pocketable, easy to use, simple and probably going to be affordable (like the Lumix SZ1 and SZ7 pair, Panasonic has not revealed pricing or availability details for these two cameras)… check out the scoop on the two cameras:
Lumix FH6: 14 megapixel traditional CCD imaging sensor
Lumix FH8: 16 megapixel traditional CCD imaging sensor
5X optical zoom: 24 […]

Samsung ST200F, WB150F and WB850F
After launching the first camera of the year, Samsung has three more WiFi-equipped to show today. Samsung is giving the wireless transfer features of their new cameras a “SMART camera” moniker, which allow the cameras to be remotely controlled with live view via Android smartphones (an iOS app for that is coming later this year). The cameras can also back up photos to your computer via WiFi and upload photos to various social networks and […]
Samsung ST66 and ST76 basic cameras
Samsung has just launched two new digital cameras: the ST66 and ST76. The two point-and-shoot models feature 16 megapixels of resolution, 2.7 inch displays and 5X optical zoom. The only difference that splits the two is the presence of optical image stabilization, which will make the ST76 slightly more expensive than its non-stabilized twin.
16 megapixel CCD imaging sensor
5X optical zoom: 25 – 125 mm (f2.5 – f6.3) lens
ST76 only: Optical image stabilization
2.7 inch LCD (230,000 […]
Canon PowerShot G1 X
Canon finally took the wraps off their new compact flagship camera today; the new PowerShot G1 X sports an imaging sensor that’s even larger than that of a Micro Four Thirds camera (ie those interchangeable lens compact cameras made by Olympus and Panasonic), and a whole 6.3 times larger than the old PowerShot G12’s sensor. However, the camera’s lens zoom range has been reduced as well as its aperture range, and the G1 X’s physical size also […]
Canon PowerShot ELPH 520 HS (IXUS 500 HS)
Remember that ultra-small ‘folded’ 12X optical zoom lens we saw on the pocketable ELPH 510 HS? Well here it is again, on the latest all-metal ELPH/IXUS model just launched today. This new camera lacks the touchscreen of the ELPH 510 HS, which isn’t such a bad thing if you’ve read our review of that camera, and has a lower resolution sensor… that really makes us wonder if this is the true successor […]
