Latest Digital Camera Reviews

Canon
image of the Canon PowerShot A2000 IS digital camera PowerShot A2000 IS
Small and wedge-shaped, the 10-megapixel Canon PowerShot A2000 IS offers great features and captures good images in just about any situation. Its 6x zoom lens gives the Canon A2000 IS a definite edge over most pocket digital cameras, and its 3.0-inch LCD is bright and sharp. Capitalizing on Canon's Face Detection and Motion Detection technology, the Canon A2000 IS offers a range of scene modes and creative tools to help you get the most out of portraits and scenery. Click here to see our Express Review of the Canon PowerShot A2000 IS.

Sony

Style counts for something, and the Sony Cyber-shot T77 has plenty of it. It's also slim, yet sturdy, and its 3-inch wide-screen LCD keeps the controls simple thanks to its touchscreen interface. Like most T-series cameras, the Sony T77 powers on with the sliding front cover, making capture of quick snapshots as fast as a flick of your fingers. The opposite motion closes the camera up, ready for stowing. The Sony T77 has a 4x zoom and a 10-megapixel sensor, and its image processor makes short work of difficult lighting situations. The Cyber-shot T77 is a sweet little camera. Click here for our review of the Sony Cybershot T77.

Nikon
image of the Nikon Coolpix P80 digital camera Coolpix P80
With 18x optical zoom and available full manual exposure control, the 10-megapixel Nikon Coolpix P80 is among the most compact long-zoom consumer digital cameras available. The Coolpix P80 features the full range of exposure control modes, a good selection of preset Scene modes and Nikon's Face-Priority AF, D-Lighting, and creative shooting tools such as color and metering modes. The Coolpix P80 produces good color and overall exposure, but has some problems with noise and chromatic aberration. Click to see our review of the Nikon Coolpix P80.

Canon
image of the Canon EOS 1000D Rebel XS digital camera EOS 1000D Rebel XS
Canon priced the Rebel XS just right for the holiday season, placing a 10-megapixel, image-stabilized digital SLR kit squarely in the sights of holiday shoppers with an under-$500 tag at just the right moment. Though it's not made for enthusiasts, the Canon Rebel XS offers a lot to the consumer photographer, with a 2.5-inch LCD, a 7-point AF sensor, and a very good quality 18-55mm zoom lens with optical image stabilization. Click here to read our full review of the Canon Rebel XS.

Pentax
image of the Pentax K200D digital camera K200D
With one of the better kit lenses on the market and body-based Shake Reduction, the Pentax K200D is a good starter digital SLR camera, one with a lot of history built into its body. Its lens mount, for starters, is compatible with K-mount lenses made as long as 33 years ago, giving the K200D a huge selection of lenses. What's more, all lenses attached to the Pentax K200D get the benefit of the K200D's body-based Shake Reduction technology, allowing sharper pictures in low light. The 10-megapixel Pentax K200D has a good feel, impressive speed, features a 2.7-inch LCD, and has a stack of Scene modes to help those new to digital SLR cameras make the transition easily.
