Review of VTech Kidizoom Camera Pink

A truly remarkable camera.

Advantages: Hd video recording, great photos, looks good
Disadvantages: EXPENSIVE!

...This camera is one hell of a camera and I was not disappointed buying this. I have been making some extra cash doing photography for parties and similar types of things just lately and this has been my new best friend. It is reliable and takes very high quality pictures as well as having the ability to record HD, yes! HD!, video at resolution 1080p (which is a lot better than most cameras). First I'd like to comment on the design, looking both professional as well as striking; this really gives off the impression that you are a professional photographer and it is a pleasure and a pride to take photos with it. It takes pretty impressive photos too; I have always had excellent results with this camera. It has 21.1 megapixels, meaning that the photos are crystal clear and allowing you to digitally crop and enlarge photos beyond...

Review of Canon EOS 5D Mark II - digital camera

The Abbie Proof Camera!

Advantages: Keeps kids amused for ages, great range of features, very tough and durable
Disadvantages: Batteries run out quick, picture quality not great

...a look on there for it. Anyway, I found a very durable looking Fisher Price Kid Tough Digital Camera in pink (brand new in packaging) being sold for £50, £10 postage on top. Not bad as £60 is what they sell for in the shops anyway. A week later and it arrived?.I kept it hidden from my daughter at this point as it wasn't yet Christmas. When she was safely tucked up in bed I decided to have a look. - THE TECHNICAL BIT These are it's features - 1.3" Backlit colour LCD screen 8MB of memory built in Facility to add an SD card for extra memory if required USB Lead to connect to a computer to upload and print photos Two eye viewing holes Two handle grips Automatic Flash Navigation via symbols (easy to understand for kids) WHAT I THOUGHT Well, I was impressed with the features especially the navigation, this meant my 3 year old...

Review of Fisher-Price Digital Camera

Handy Pocket PC phone with camera

Advantages: Handy size, Sleek look, Large screen
Disadvantages: No physical keypad, Short stylus takes getting used to

.... Apart from the front-face buttons, on the left hand side, there is a shortcut button for the camera, a shortcut button for notes and a slide control for the volume. On the right hand side, there is the power off button and infrared sensor. At the bottom you will find the handsfree plug, the mini-USB connector port and the reset button. The reset button has to be used once in a while when the phone sometimes refuses to respond. But don't worry, that doesn't happen too often and even when it does, I feel it is more a problem because of the Windows operating system which necessitates you to know the procedure for a reboot which you are used to anyway if you are a Windows PC user. Anyway, the USB connector port is used by the charger as well as the USB connector cable to connect to the PC for synchronization as well as charging. The top edge has...

vanguard Camera case

Advantages: cheap price, safe and durable, waterproof, and camera protective
Disadvantages: Made in china, available in black only.

...background to Vanguard until I started to write this review I had no idea who they were. I searched online and read a few reviews about the company. The company specialise in manufacturing Camera bags, Binoculars, Tripods and Cases for guns to name a few products. The companies customers include major Camera manufacturers. vanguard Camera Case for a Camera case it is a low priced entry level Camera Case used to hold, store and allow the user to move around with a Camera inside the Pouch. The Camera Case is black coloured throughout. The Case has the Vanguard's logo encased on the closing part of the Pouch. Also the material is polyester and I suppose that it is good that it is not made from leather as the leather in the summer weather reacts to the heat. This Camera Case also adheres to the international quality...

Review of Vanguard LIMA 6B Case Camera

Fantastic multi purpose DV camera

Advantages: Everthing you would expect multiplied by 10.
Disadvantages: Low light, lowers the picture quality. But nightshot is great.

...I have always enjoyed videoing my friends and family. Like many people, when I do venture abroad I am filming constently. I used to use an old Sony 8mm video camera and recently upgraded to the PC100E. This DV Camera is unreal. The steadyshot feature is unshakable. The 0 LUX nightshot mode really means 0 LUX. Due to the megapixel CCD, the digital zoom (after 10x) is very good when compared to a lower spec DV camera. I also use this camera for photography, the sony memory sticks are easy to come by and the digital photo quality it brilliant. I don't use my 35mm still camera anymore. Also another feature which isn't mentioned much, is the ability to take analogue inputs to the camera!! You can convert your analogue movies into digital. Combined with a pinnacle studio editor, I am now able to produce broadcast quality films about anything...

Review of Sony PC100E Digital Camera

Caught on Camera

Advantages: Help prevent accidents
Disadvantages: Big fines

...Speed cameras are one of the best inventions ever thought up, it is just a shame our councils and police can not put them to better use. The sole purpose of out friendly little Gatso should / was originally to deter speeding and therefore cut the number of accidents involving excess speed. I live at the bottom of a fairly large hill, which happens to be a major through road. Halfway up the hill is a primary school, because of the nature of the hill and the fact at the top of it, it changes from national speed limit to 30mph I have personally witnessed 1000's of car coming down the hill at 40mph plus, why is there not a speed camera there I will never know. Leicester City council have recently announced they are doubling the number of speed cameras in the county, they also announced where they will be situated, I feel that is...

Review of Speed Cameras

The perfect backpackers camera

Advantages: Small enough to fit into your pocket but with a powerful zoom!
Disadvantages: must use specific battery

...I purchased the original DMC-TZ1 when it first came onto the market a few years back and thought it was a great camera. But this one is even better! The 9.1mp makes for a good clear shot and the 12x optical zoom is amazing! Its the perfect camera for travelling - it can fit into your pocket or a going out bag ensuring you always have a camera to capture every moment. The zoom is the perfect added bonus. The only downside as I see it is the battery must be a specific type which isnt compatable with many other cameras. Having said that the battery is good quality and lasts for ages once charged. Because the battery is so specific to purchase a spare (which I would recommend for anyone travelling) isnt the cheapest....

Review of Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7

Why I think, Speed cameras don't work

Advantages: Reduces speed temporarily, If used properly reduces accidents and deaths.
Disadvantages: Propaganda, Revenue raising, Being lied to and Targeted.

...Let me start my opinion by stating that I am employed in sales which requires me to drive many miles each week - usually around 2000 !! I have been driving since I was 17 (nine years) and I have never had any points on my licence or been involved in any accident. I consider myself an efficient driver, not faultless, but all the same experienced enough to have an opinion on the subject of speed cameras. Let me also state that I am 100% in favour of speed cameras in areas which need protecting like schools and pedestrian crossings for instance. The use of speed cameras in these areas as well as accident blackspots undoubtedly cuts down driver speeds and in turn cuts down the amount of injuries, deaths and accidents. No one in their right mind can argue against this issue and Police and driving groups are quite right to employ speed...

Review of Speed Cameras

WARNING New Cameras

Advantages: For short distance lower drivers speed
Disadvantages: Encourages dangerous driving

..."Speed cameras have their limitations...but when these matters can be overcome they will be a sure winner for raising revenue". The Metropolitan Police magazine, Metline, March 1999 Edition I saw this quote on the ABD (Association of British Drivers) website (www.abd.org.uk), I feel it shows how the role of the speed camera on our roads is changing. When cameras were introduced people were upset, the press frequently commenting that this is the first step towards the sate becoming “Big Brother”. The government promised that the cameras would only be used in proven accident blackspots and this went some way to pacifying the public. There were also numerous television campaigns showing the hazards of speed (though at least one campaign featured a child that had been killed on a pedestrian crossing rather than due to...
