The camera features a new 14.2 megapixel Sony Exmor CMOS sensor in the APS-C size format that produces a 1.5X crop factor (35mm film 0http://editor-digital-camera-review.blogspot.com/2010/01/fujifilm-finepix-s200exr_16.htmlFujifilm FinePix S200EXRnoreply@blogger.com (George)Sat, 16 Jan 2010 21:35:00 +0200tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819947527132578013.post-4422260645804229092Fujifilm FinePix S200EXR When Fujifilm announced the Finepix S200EXR ultrazoom in late July 2009, Fujifans everywhere may have been hoping for a design to close the zoom gap between the 18x of Fuji's top offerings and the 24 and 26x competition. That wait will continue - the S200 is the anointed successor to Fuji's S100fs - but while the S200 has a lens with the identical 14.3x zoom 0http://editor-digital-camera-review.blogspot.com/2010/01/panasonic-lumix-dmc-fp8.htmlPanasonic Lumix DMC-FP8noreply@blogger.com (George)Fri, 15 Jan 2010 18:49:00 +0200tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819947527132578013.post-3379395336797107319Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP8 When Panasonic announced the Lumix DMC-FP8 (henceforth the FP8) in late July, a casual glance might impress onlookers that here was another rectangular, standard zoom compact digital with the 12 megapixel sensor resolution that seems to be almost obligatory in this class.

The differences aren't major, and with the PowerShot SX120 IS, it offers only a slight change in resolution from its older brother the PowerShot SX110 IS, moving from 9 megapixels to 10 megapixels in the SX120 IS. The other change is in the processing of the 0http://editor-digital-camera-review.blogspot.com/2010/01/panasonic-lumix-dmc-gf1.htmlPanasonic Lumix DMC-GF1noreply@blogger.com (George)Wed, 13 Jan 2010 21:36:00 +0200tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819947527132578013.post-372988829265540375Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 Review The Panasonic Lumix GF1 is the lastest member of the Micro Four Thirds family. But before Micro Four Thirds, there was Four Thirds. With Olympus having produced relatively small film SLRs since at least the early 1970s, it was probably no surprise that they would partner with Kodak to introduce the Four Thirds System standard (with its sub APS-C sized sensor) as 0http://editor-digital-camera-review.blogspot.com/2010/01/sony-cyber-shot-dsc-hx1.htmlSony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1noreply@blogger.com (George)Tue, 12 Jan 2010 23:49:00 +0200tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819947527132578013.post-3476763002459551892Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1 I first got my hands on Sony's current flagship ultrazoom, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1, all the way back at PMA 2009. A lot can change in the camera world in nine months, but when you're talking about a point-and-shoot (albeit an expensive one) that can fire off full-res frames at a rate of ten per second, the HX1 hasn't lost much of its allure in nearly a year since its0http://editor-digital-camera-review.blogspot.com/2010/01/canon-powershot-sd940-is-review.htmlCanon PowerShot SD940 IS Reviewnoreply@blogger.com (George)Mon, 11 Jan 2010 15:04:00 +0200tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819947527132578013.post-6605422743899710104Canon PowerShot SD940 IS Review When I first set eyes on the Canon PowerShot SD940 IS (also known as the IXUS 120 IS), one of Canon's newest Powershot ELPH cameras, I asked myself, "Haven't I seen this before?" In fact, it looks almost identical to the PowerShot SD780 IS, released this past February and reviewed by this website in March.

That's often a question I ask myself when reviewing a new camera.

The svelte new F70 (which replaces Fuji's F60fd model) also incorporates the nifty EXR technology introduced earlier this year on the very popular Fujifilm F200EXR.

For instance, though in many ways it bears little resemblance to the five-year-old PowerShot G6, that was the last G-series model with an articulated LCD, a feature beloved by many of the series' fans.
