Advantages: Simple to use; good picture quality; long battery life
Disadvantages: Small LCD display; slightly inadequte zoom

...I had been pondering purchasing a digital camera for a long time. I wanted something easy to use that produced quality images and had the ability to transfer images from camera to computer with minimum fuss. The camera that I finally decided to buy was the Kodak DX3900. A plus right from the outset was the inclusion of a hard copy of the instruction manual, which these days seems to be a luxury rather than norm. Most digital camera manufacturers supply the instruction manual on CD for you to print out yourself, which is an added hassle that I can do without. The instruction manual was easy to follow and no sooner had I inserted my 2 AA rechargeable batteries I was off taking my first pictures. Even without the manual the camera is very easy to operate. The menus provided on the camera are very well laid out and allow for easy... Read review

Advantages: Great Print Quality
Disadvantages: None i can think of.

...Epson Stylus DX4200 After having my Epson Stylus DX4000 for a few months I needed a change and decided to upgrade to the next model in the series. As with the other printer it is an all-round great product and has many different features that you are able to use. I found that the printer has many qualities that are same as the DX4000 which include ease of use because it is very easy to use and the printing quality, although it is slightly better than the previous model.

Advantages: Easy to use, cheap and good quality printing
Disadvantages: Does use quite a lot of ink whilst printing

...I have always gone for the Epson printers for some unknown reason and when my latest printer, an Epson Stylus PHOTO RX425 started playing up i thought it about time i upgraded, also the playing up of the printer was causing a problem with the childrens homework so needed to be sorted ASAP. So off i went to my local PC World on the hunt for a bargin, not that you ever get any of those in PC World!! But i was in luck there was an offer on the Epson Stylus DX4050 at only £39.99 for an all in one printer. I was chuffed as i'd expected to be spending around £70 - £80 for a new one. Apparently this model is the European version of the Epson Stylus DX4000 which is the UK model, however you can buy the European model cheaper - typical that is for UK. So i marched off down to the check-out as quick as possible without trying to attract any... Read review

Advantages: Envelope printing, hidden ports, great design
Disadvantages: Disappointing LCD display

...EPSON STYLUS DX6000 The Epson stylus DX6000 printer is a nice size and really compact for what it offers. Its silver/ grey colour gives the printer an extremely professional and modern look. In fact, it was its striking appearance that immediately drew me to it when shopping one afternoon in PC world with no real intention to purchase a printer that day. I love gadgets and this printer is certainly accommodating of my needs. I really like the numerous ports and slots it has for expandable memory and external flash drives. Everything from your standard SD, MS, xD and even CF cards can be plugged into this machine for easy access to your pics. It also includes the common PictBridge port which I know is a favourite for a lot of people. The port are cleverly concealed with a cover over them. This has the added benefit of them... Read review

Advantages: Lens attachments,LCD,red eye,4 mega pixels, Zoom, excellent quality
Disadvantages: Battery life, bluring on digital zoom

...can hold approx 110 high quality photos! The software supplied with the DX4900 includes USB connection software, album creation software, image transfer software and Kodak Picture Software. The transfer software runs in the background and starts up whenever the camera is detected and then guides you through transferring your images. Once an image is transferred, you are passed over to the Picture Software which allows you to view your images and apply simple image enhancements, e-mail them and organise images in an album. I do not use this - but use adobe photoshop to import my images and edit them. Overall its a nice looking camera with excellent features and good value for money. The ownly problem it has is the poor quality digital zoom making pictures fuzzy. However despite this I am pleased with the camera...I have even bought... Read review

Advantages: Great budget synth.
Disadvantages: Tricky to program.

...Excellent budget version of the infamous Yamaha DX range of synths. It may only have minikeys, and a limited range of sound compared to it's bigger relations, but you get still get some incredible sounds from this little DX-100. Warm rounded basses, thin string pads and nice smooth solo sounds are all here. Where it really comes into it's own is when you want those harsh sounds to cut through the music like a chainsaw. You have to have a DX in any synth studio, so why not hunt around for one of these. Believe me, you'l thank me when you start to play it! A little difficult to program, but worth the results.

Advantages: Superb print quality for an inkjet printer
Disadvantages: Can be a little noisy.

...I've only ever had a non-Epson printer once and I'll never be doing that again, so when I went out to choose a new printer Epson was my first choice. After much deliberation the printer I eventually choice was the Epson DX4450. Once I got it home and unpacked it, I set about connecting it to me computer expecting the process to take quite a while. I was pleasantly surprised as from unpacking to printing the first document it only took about 20 minutes. Fantastic. When the document had printed I was also exceptionally pleased with the print quality which was far better than I have ever had with my other printers in the past. Being impressed I decided to print a colour document (the first had been black and white) to see how this fared. Again the print quality was excellent and better still the paper was feeding through correctly... Read review

Advantages: Great value, 6.1 megapixels, easy to use but loads of features
Disadvantages: Not the smallest camera, but still compact enough to look good and use easily

...When looking for a digital camera to take on honeymoon last September, I was overwhelmed with a multitude of choices. The problem was, none of the cameras I looked at seemed to boast a complete package. If it was small, good looking and cheap, it had only 4 megapixels. If it had the megapixels I wanted, it was expensive and ugly. Excuse the pun, but you get the picture. So, on went the search, countless reviews were read, and then I stumbled upon this gem of a camera. I wanted at least 5 megapixels to enable larger prints, and so the 6.1 megapixels on the DX7630 was ideal. The price wasn't too high for the amount of features at under £200, and in my opinion, it looks pretty neat too. So, I took the plunge and bought one. When it arrived, I was impressed with the look and feel. It's not like these mathbox cameras you can get... Read review
