REVIEW: Wacom Bamboo Fun: Hardware Review – Canon Blogger
Viewed 58 times
The good folks at Wacom were kind enough to donate a Bamboo Fun to me for review on the blog a while back. In order to really get a full handle on it though, I wanted to use it within the context of my at-home work flow. You see, I’m not a newcomer to tablets, as at work and through previous experience, I’ve grown quite accustomed to their usage. I’ve had to instruct people on how to use, configure the basics, and such on their computers. as well as used them in many of their varying sizes (most recently being the Cintiq) -Canon Blogger

REVIEW: Sawdust Mountain by Eirik Johnson – Joerg Colberg (COnscientious)
Viewed 32 times
As I mentioned on this blog before, there is a little bit of soul searching going on in photojournalistic circles. What I find fascinating about the debates and commentaries I’ve seen is the implicit acknowledgment that fine-art photographers not only managed to expand the public’s idea of what photography can look like, but they can also produce work that challenges standard photojournalistic practice. Eirik Johnson’s Sawdust Mountain can be seen as a good example. -
REVIEW: [REVIEW - PENTAX K-m DSLR] – dpexpert
Viewed 26 times
This 10.2 megapixel single lens reflex camera is fitted with a Pentax zoom lens with a 18–55mm range (approximately 27–82mm film equivalent). The camera/lens combination is small and light for a DSLR and well made. The lens is mechanically smooth with just the right friction in the zoom and focus rings. Image stabilisation is in-body by sensor shift. There is also dust reduction by sensor shake. The camera uses AA batteries and memory is by SD card. There is no body-top function display but the LCD layout is clear and easy to use. Some settings are also displayed in the viewfinder. There is no illuminated focus spot, which is a curious omission. -dpexpert

REVIEW: The Leica D-lux 4 Digital Camera Review – Steve Huff
Viewed 24 times
Back when Leica originally partnered with Panasonic for the Digilux 2, I was one of the first to own one. It was a GREAT camera back in 2004, and is still a great camera today in 2009, if you are lucky enough to own one. Many still use that Digilux 2, and when they show up used, they are snagged up quickly as they are known to have a certain “Leica” quality. When the Digilux 2 was announced, everyone assumed it would be like a digital M, but upon the press release, realized it was a fixed lens camera (though a fine lens indeed) that was more of a compact digicam. -Steve Huff

REVIEW: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T90 – PJ Jacobowitz (PCMag)
Viewed 27 times
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T90 ($299.99 direct) continues the trend of widescreen displays elbowing traditional 4:3s aside. After all, the wider 16:9 aspect ratio has become common with laptop screens, monitors, and (of course) HDTVs—shouldn’t we be taking pictures in 16:9, too? Luckily, the T90 has more to offer than just widescreen-ready images. Though we wish its battery life and some aspects of its image quality were better, by and large it’s still an impressive camera at a compelling price. -PJ Jacobowitz

REVIEW: The Canon Powershot G10 Review – Steve Huff

As I sit here eating dry strawberry frosted mini wheats out of the box I have no idea what I am going to write about this little Canon Powershot G10. When it was released in October 2008 I saw it in the store and thought it was a VERY good looking camera. No, correction…a SWEET LITTLE BITCHIN’ camera! Yea, those were my words. -Steve Huff

REVIEW: Panasonic LUMIX DMC FX40 Review – Cameras.co.uk
Viewed 29 times
One of the attractions of the Panasonic Lumix DMC FX40 is its extreme wide angle lens. This helps you to squeeze much more width into your photos. The lens gives you 5x zoom. You can also increase the amount of zoom in a maximum of 9.8x when shooting at low resolutions. Other features include 12 megapixels, HD movies and image stabilisation. The Lumix DMC FX40 is fairly easy to use. -Cameras.co.uk

REVIEW: +GEAR REVIEW – Sigma 18-250mm f3.5-6.3 DC OS HSM – Dennis Hays
Viewed 34 times
This is not a lens that high-end professionals would use and I don’t belive it is designed for that demographic. I see this lens fitting in with the enthusiast/hobby category or maybe someone that is a weekend pro (semi-pro?). If you travel on holiday, this lens should be in your kit. As such, you need to pack a only a few accessories, such as a small, light-weight tripod, memory cards and an extra battery for your DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex) and you are ready to go. -Dennis Hays

REVIEW: Nikon D5000 – A different kind of review – Terry White
Viewed 27 times
Let me start off by warning you up front. If you’re looking for a review of the Nikon D5000 that concentrates on how good of a still camera it is, you can stop reading now. I already have a great Nikon DSLR for stills. It’s the Nikon D700! I love it. Before that I was using the Nikon D300. Loved that one too. So my interest in the Nikon D5000 has very little to do with how good of a picture it can take. Don’t get me wrong, I will use it for taking pictures too and good picture quality is very important to me. However, the video features are what brought me to the D5000. The D5000 is so small it may become my travel camera too (more on that later). -Terry White

REVIEW: Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FS7 digital camera – Elias Plastiras (PC World)
Viewed 26 times
Panasonic’s LUMIX DMC-FS7 is a compact digital camera that’s simple to use, and it takes excellent photos. It has a minimal set of controls, it’s small enough to slide into a side pocket, and it’s well suited to taking photos at parties and other casual outings. -Elias Plastiras
