Canon S200

Advantages: cheap, compact, durable
Disadvantages: bit of an ink-guzzler

...I came across the Canon S200 a little over two years ago in the PC World sale when, as a student, I was looking for a cheap but reliable bit of kit to keep those coursework essays churning out (I'd rather have had an extra half hour in bed than race to college to 'bag' a printer in the IT lab...hm, not much has changed I fear). Not only did I quite fancy the price-tag (just under 30 quid), I was attracted to the S200's size - it's small enough to perch on the corner of my desk without taking up too much precious space otherwise needed for books, papers, cups of tea, elbows etc... [dimensions excluding feeder tray = 16 x 16 x 35cm approx.] The printer came with a USB cable and easy-to-install CD-Rom driver. The CD also contains an electronic manual that can be installed for later consultation (although personally I'd have preferred...

Review of Canon S 200

Logitect does it again with the S200!

Advantages: Cheap, Good looking for the price, Compact, Great sound
Disadvantages: None!

...Who hasn't heard of Logitech? They have essentially become a household brand, with their ground-breaking products that offer functionality at a low cost to the consumer. Recent reviews that have praised Logitech's balance of cost and performance have covered their Webcams, Speakers, Mice and Keyboards, and a lot of other peripherals to boot. So they seem to have a hold on the market, don't they? Well, that should continue as long as Logitech continue to manufacture products such as the S200. Let's start with the aesthetics of the S200s. They come in a rather smart black and silver finish, which may look tacky but is actually very smart in the flesh. They feel solid to the touch, and very robust if dropped (I accidentaly did this but please don't!). A headphone and microphone socket are both included on one sattelite...

S200 - Basic Budget Printer that gets the job done

Advantages: Very cheap to buy and run, compact.
Disadvantages: Print quality not brilliant, a little flimsy.

...I purchased a Canon S200x printer as a stop-gap measure when my absolutely dreadful Epson 680 gave up for good (a definite blessing in disguise!). I have since upgraded to the brilliant Canon i560 (which I have also reviewed) but used the S200 for a few months whilst I saved up for a better one. The printer cost me less than £40 from the superb ebuyer.com - this is especially excellent when you consider that cartridges (unofficial) for the printer can be purchased for about £3 each! Sometimes budget printers like these sting you later on the cartridges but with this unit, the cost is low and stays low! Unpacking the printer, you'll notice it is fairly compact and light, and also feels rather tacky and plasticky. The printer is mostly standard beige, with the front cover in a green/grey effect. It doesn't look too bad, but not too...

Sennheiser PMX 200's

Advantages: Very durable - will last forever, it's looks and design
Disadvantages: Long term can become uncomfortable, miniscule amount of bass

...with black and light grey/blue details. They are very practical too. I say this because of their very long lead to plug in to any headphone port. It?s long enough to reach all the way in to a backpack if that is what is needed, but not too long if all that is needed is to reach into an iPod in your pocket. The actual sound quality is pretty impressive. It says it had deep bass booster or something of that nature and whilst the sound is crisp and clear, the bass itself is not so impressive. A bit of false advertising there, but on the other hand it?s not terrible and certainly isn?t none existent so as long as you?re not looking to blow your ears off with heavy drums and enhanced bass then these headphones will be perfect! The pads surrounding the earphones are very comfortable on your ears. They are nice and soft and spongy so they fit...

Review of Sennheiser PMX 200

Nikon Coolpix S200

Advantages: Functions well in daylight; looks good and is fairly compact
Disadvantages: Picture quality is middle-of-the-road; is awful in low light

...The Nikon Coolpix is a good-looking camera; that is not to be doubted. I was initially very pleased with it, but have since been a little underwhelmed. Although I think Nikon are a very good company who on the whole turn out some excellent products, I am unconvinced that the S200 is one of their best pieces of work. My main gripes are twofold. Firstly, I do not think that the picture quality is anything better than average, and there are certainly better options out on the market elsewhere - I believe Olympus cameras to be very strong in this regard. Secondly, despite the emphasis on its high ISO settings in the marketing for the product, I have been unimpressed by the camera's ability to take photographs in anything much less than broad daylight. The only way that a photo with remotely decent resolution can be taken is...

Review of Canon BJC S200

TT200

Advantages: Good quality and features
Disadvantages: N/A

...Numark turntables were the first ones I bought many years ago when I started out and do I always have a special place in my heart for their products. When the TT200 was released I was quite impressed by the design and some of the features so decided to check them out. The TT200 looks very cool indeed. They are not shaped like other turntables; rectangular with harsh corners, this has a much more sleeker looking design with luxurious looking smooth edges and a dual coloured faceplate (silver and black). The smart design takes nothing away from the sturdiness of the turntable and I reckon that this could take quite a battering before playback became affected. The platter and the tone-arm feel strong and I would image they would stand up to a fair bit of force. When making any contact with the record being played the needle only skipped...

Review of Numark TT200

Sony a200 - one of the best budget dslr cameras available.

Advantages: Great battery life, comfortable in the hands, picture quality.
Disadvantages: Flimsy memory card and remote release slot.

...I was looking for a new camera and had a budget of around £300. Compact cameras such as the Panasonic Lumix TZ and the Nikon Coolpix P80 kept coming up, as did the Nikon D40 and the Sony a200. I decided to go for the Sony in the end as it was a name I trusted and I had used a compact Sony in the past. The quality difference between my old compact camera and this camera was incredible. Shots always seem to come out crisp and clear, whatever lighting conditions the picture was taken in. Battery life is great and the percentage meter of battery power remaining is invaluable. The camera fits well in large hands, and all of the buttons and dials on the camera are comfortably positioned. Having only used a compact camera in the past, the sheer number of options took a while to get used to, but once I was familiar with the camera everything...
