Advantages: Flash compensation setting
Disadvantages: External flash is a must when taking group indoor shots

Very nice camera. Especially the macro shots. Performance in low light /indoor condition not that good but an external flash will do the thing. Handling is good and the placement of knobs and function buttons are well placed. Taking pictures with high ISO setting is nice, especially if the condition requires no firing of flash. Battery performance is at par. You can take several shots even if you are using internal flash. I like the flash compensation ... Read review

Advantages: Fantastic quality and loads of features!
Disadvantages: Weird name and for the same price you can get better!

Olympus used the shockproof and waterproof design as the key selling tool for the µ[mju:] 820 and was built to provide the consumer with fantastic picture quality in a durable yet compact form. Through the HyperCrystal LCD screen shots are rendered perfectly clear whilst the face detection and focusing system helps even the most clueless photographer capture what really matters in a photograph. Complexity is added for those more experienced by allowing ...
...the Shadow Adjustment function. ISO sensitivity (long story short this is a piece of technology which allows better image quality in poor lighting without using the flash) helps automatically correct blur caused by movement of the camera or subject matter and is quite obviously an extremely useful bit of support when trying to take pictures or film hyperactive children! In regards to my personal experience I recently won one of these little beauties ... Read review

Advantages: high zoom and high quality standard pictures
Disadvantages: Batteries, up close work and plasticy casing.

...the spots off my older HP camera. The extra megapixels do make a difference. The camera menu is easy to navigate and the buttons that do the navigation are nice and simple to operate. The select or OK button is at the centre of the navigation and is very large so even people with big fingers can operate it with ease. The zoom button is L shaped so you cannot mistake which way the zoom lense is going. Talking of the lense, the 6X optical lense is ...
...of the camera to charge. HP do sell an "easy charge" kit for £20 but all the kit contains is a normal AA battery charger that you can buy for about £5 and a flimsy carry case. At least taking AA batteries it can easily be replaced when the batteries run out but i think they missed a big opening by not providing a battery that charges in camera. However, a set of batteries has a massive lifespan. Also included in the box is a driver CD for connecting ... Read review

Advantages: The menu system works great,It's pretty,The LCD display is really beautiful
Disadvantages: nothing

On paper, this was the camera I wanted. Here were my criteria: (1) Shirt-pocket size. I was sick of subconsciously deciding NOT to take a camera along because I didn't want to lug about a bag of camera-plus-accessories-plus-adapter-plus-plus-plus. I wanted something small and self-contained that I'd get used to carrying with me all the time. The DSC-T100 is about the size of a deck of standard playing cards. (2) More than 3x optical zoom. I've had ...
...cam (too much zoom, at least for my shaky limbs). Something in between is the ticket. This camera is 5x. (3) High but not necessarily state-of-the-art number of pixels. This camera is 8.1 megapixels. (4) BIG LCD screen. As big as possible. This camera is 3" diagonally. (5) Flexible but easy-to-use shooting features, so all of my family members would be tempted to learn how to operate it. Like other reviewers, I was reluctant to buy a Sony, but for ... Read review

Advantages: Image Quality, Feel and Ergonomics
Disadvantages: Size and weight (but not bad for a D-SLR)

The Canon 20D is the fourth DSLR of the xxD line by Canon, which now contains 6 cameras. In my opinion the 20D is one of the best, for a number of reasons. The 8mp sensor allows prints to be made at A3 size or more, while reducing noise in the images. It also features a Magnesium Alloy body which feels very solid, and adds to the impression that this camera is more expensive than it actually is - it can be found very cheaply now from eBay or professional ...
...enough for shooting action sequences, from children's school sports days to F1 and airshows. The images the 20D produces are of very high quality, with comparitavely low noise at high ISO presenting perfectly useable shots up to ISO 800. Battery life is impressive, but can be improved by using the optional BG-E2 battery grip, which holds two batteries and contributes to the excellent handling, even when coupled with large telephoto lenses.
