Canon Powershot A95 Review

The Canon Powershot A95 is a high quality all round digital camera. It provides you with everything you need and more from a standard digital camera. The Canon Powershot A95 is a fairly typical digital camera. It is the flagship model in a group of cameras that are highly acclaimed. As with other Powershot cameras the image quality produced by the A95 is very good indeed. The camera is abatable with the shots taken both indoors and outdoors coming up to standard. The Powershot A95 probably has more features for you to use than any other. To start with there is a flip out and twist 1.8" LCD screen. The beauty of a screen that flips out and twists is that it allows you to shoot at different angles and you can also move the screen out of the line of direct sunlight, making it easier to see.
The Canon Powershot A95 looks like many other digital cameras. Rectangular and shiny silver it has a fairly compact design. One element of the design that you will find very useful is the good sized grip on the front of the camera. This helps you to hold everything steady and produce sharp pictures.
The camera weighs 235g and has dimensions of 101.1 x 64.6 x 34.7 mm. Unlike some digital cameras it is too large to slip into the pocket of your jeans but you shouldn't find it a burden to carry round either.Printing photos is as easy as taking them. Simply connect your camera to any Canon Direct Print or PictBridge compatible photo printer, push the Print/Share button and within seconds, you'll have a full color print in your hand - it is that simple. When connected to a Canon Compact Photo Printer, the camera can even print ID photos.

Samsung Omnia i900 review

Samsung Omnia i900 -a Windows Mobile smartphone with an excellent user interface and a bevy of features. The Samsung Omnia i900 is a 3G Smartphone running on MS Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system. The Omnia i900 looks great on paper. The 3.2" screen has a unique resolution of WQVGA, or 240x400. That makes for a pixel density of 145PPI, which is a bit low in comparison to other devices. It's running on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, packing a Marvell CPU at 624MHz with 96MB RAM and 96MB ROM, plus 16GB or 8GB of additional memory that acts as an on-board storage card. For further expansion, the Omnia has a microSD slot. It's a quadband phone with GSM850/900/1800/1900, but only has the UMTS2100 band, meaning that 3G won't work in the US. It has 802.11 b/g WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0, an FM tuner, and aGPS. For one-handed usage, there is an optical joystick that controls a mouse cursor on the screen. The camera shoots at 5.0MP and has a flash, and the front camera shoots at VGA resolution. Powering it all is a nice-sized 1440mAh battery.
Samsung Omnia i900
The Samsung Omnia mobile phone has got all the antique looks and well advanced features, technologies that can attract anyone.

Creative ZEN STONE Review

Creative Zen Stone is an exceptional bargain, and it comes in a choice of six colors. the new ZEN Stone is the answer to ready music on the move. Carry it on you as you dance to the beat of your workout music. It offers good sound quality, is easy to use, and includes a standard mini-USB port for syncing and charging. It supports Audible files and has a Skip Folder function that makes it easy to skip through groups of tracks.

If you're looking for a straightforward, great-sounding MP3 player at a bargain price, the Creative Zen Stone is a good option. Just be prepared for a bare-bones feature set to match the bare-bones price. Overall, the Stone offers impressive richness, clarity, and warmth. Swapping in a set of Shure SE310 earphones brought out the bass and gave music the depth it lacked with the packaged headphones. The rated 10-hour battery life rather diminishes some of the luster of the performance. The rated battery life is unimpressive. The Creative Zen Stone has no screen, no extra features, and no built-in clip like that of the iPod Shuffle.

HTC Touch Diamond Review

The HTC Touch Diamond has arrived. Style and substance in a phone are no longer mutually exclusive. The phone does what it should, nicely, and packaged in a very sexy and slim enclosure. I wonder how the Touch HD would stack up compared to this. For anyone considering this phone, it's a good phone, I absolutely love it. Smooth touch interface, Touchflo 3D is beautiful. Screen resolution is better than most high end smartphones. The ability to use pretty much unlimited applications is great. The design itself is nothing but exceptional.

With HTCs vibrant touch-responsive user interface, TouchFLO 3D, and ultra-fast HSDPA internet connectivity the HTC Touch Diamond offers a rich online experience to rival a notebook computer, allowing you to interact with Google, YouTube, and Wikipedia as freely as you would with a broadband connection. A 3.2 megapixel auto-focus camera will help you capture the perfect moment in style and with a massive 4GB of internal storage you can keep all the files you need. The integrated ultra-sensitive GPS will help you find your destination as quickly and efficiently as a dedicated satellite navigation unit.

All in all, Diamond is a truly impressive attempt by HTC and I hope HTC will take in from their Diamond experience and make other interesint gadgets in the future.

Samsung BL103 Review

Great buy, great camera, super easy to use, wonderful and lightweight and has all the features the more expensive cameras have. It does take some really good pictures and I bought the little case and memory card with it too. It had everything I wanted; a big screen, good pictures, I could even set the lens to record video and take pictures in black & white.Enjoy high-quality photos with an amazing 10.2 megapixel digital camera. Taking beautiful photos is a snap with the Samsung BL103. Plus, with digital image stabilization, images are crisp, clear, and free from blur. The BL103 is easy-to-use and easy-to-enjoy no matter where you’re capturing images.

Enjoy high-quality photos with an amazing 10.2-megapixel digital camera. Taking beautiful photos is a snap with the Samsung BL103. Plus, with digital image stabilization, images are crisp, clear, and free from blur. The BL103 is easy-to-use and easy-to-enjoy no matter where you’re capturing images.

This camera is really great! This is a very slim, lightweight digital camera with a better than expected resolution, and features usually only found in the high priced big name digitals. I compared this camera to 1/2 a dozen similar products and this one beat all of them and it cost a lot less than the next closest price. This is definitely a great digital camera. Would definitely buy it again and would recommend to anyone looking for a new digital camera. The only thing I am not a big fan of is the flash it is very bright and in certain light it can make you look really pale. It also doesn't work outside in cold weather so don't plan to use it to get pictures of outdoor winter activities.

Olympus E-30 Review

From the first glance, the Olympus E-30 looks quite similar when it comes to the appearance of the E-3, the housings do differ vastly. We have more than enough reason to try the new 12.3 Megapixel Olympus E-30 in practice. We were very curious to learn about the improvements and differences between the E-520 and E-3 models; the two DSLR cameras that have the Olympus E-30 in their centre. Besides the test in practice, the Olympus E-30 is also thoroughly tested in our DIWA Lab, where these products are put through standardized tests in the same lab circumstances. From the following Olympus E30 review, you will have a comprehensive see about it.

We find a number of new buttons, and other buttons have either been replaced or have disappeared all together. What stayed is the perfect hand-fit. With a handgrip that fits as a glove and an acceptable weight, the Olympus E-30 digital SLR camera fits solidly and pleasantly in the hand. The buttons on the back of the camera next to the monitor are directly accessible with the thumb of your right hand, which adds to a swift operation.

Once you use the Olympus E-30 you will come to the conclusion that it offers a whole lot of possibilities. And yet, the inexperienced or non-Olympus photographer will build up a bond with the camera quite fast. The basis will be fairly familiar in general, and also the standard buttons will not lead to any questions. Diving into the menu will surprise you, while extensive and even unique possibilities will be found here. Olympus E-30 is worth to possess.

Nikon D3X review

Nikon is proud to announce the new 24.5-megapixel D3X digital SLR camera! Nikon D3x looks the same as the Nikon D3, externally there are no changes at all. Internally of course there are some differences but I would recommend you checking out the Nikon D3 specifications as I will only be talking here about the new features of the D3x. Goodies like the Multi-CAM 3500FX autofocus sensor module, Live View, dual CF slots and the 920,000 dot LCD monitor are all unchanged from the D3.

D3X brings extreme resolution performance to Nikon professional flagship-level D-SLRs. The D3X was meticulously engineered for professional photographers whose assignments demand nothing less than the ability to capture extreme fidelity, detail and nuance in ways now made possible with the amazing D3X. Nikon engineers understand that the needs of professional photographers vary with their assignments. Nikon also understands that a photographer's workflow can be seriously impacted by cameras with widely dissimilar handling, which is why the D3X takes its design cues from the enormously successful D3. Logical and familiar control layout integrates with rugged, reliable construction. And like the D3, the D3X features Nikon’s 51-point AF system with 3D focus tracking. A bright 3-inch super-density 920,000-dot LCD monitor offers precise image review, along with razorsharp, 27x magnification for fast, critical confirmation of focus in one of two Live View modes, all of which contribute to the D3X's professional potency.

EOS 5D Mark II review

High Performance for High Expectation! Canon's update to the wildly popular full frame EOS 5D is here, and it's better than ever. Unlike any previous 'full frame' sensor camera, the 5D was the first with a compact body (i.e. not having an integral vertical grip) and has since then proved to be very popular, perhaps because if you wanted a full frame DSLR to use with your Canon lenses and you didn't want the chunky EOS-1D style body then the EOS 5D has been your only choice. The EOS 5D Mark II has a stunning 21.1-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor with DIGIC 4 Image Processor, a vast ISO Range of 100-6400 (expandable to ISO L: 50, H1: 12800 and H2: 25600), plus EOS technologies like Auto Lighting Optimizer and Peripheral Illumination Correction. It supports Live View shooting, Live View HD videos, and more. It can shoot up to 3.9 fps, has 9 AF points plus 6 AF assist points, a new 98% coverage viewfinder, a 3.0-inch Clear View LCD (920,000 dots/VGA) and a rugged build. Full-frame shooters rejoice!

If you've owned the original 5D, then you'll understand why it was such a great camera. It had amazing color rendition with every picture that you took. This upgrade is even better. It is very easy to use and handle.
