The Sony Cybershot DSC-H2 is a 6 megapixel camera with a 2 inch LCD screen. The Sony H2’s standout feature is the massive 12x optical zoom lens, equivalent to 36-432mm, allowing for many creative opportunities. The DSC-H2 also offers an image stabilisation system which ensures sharper results when hand-holding the camera. There are 7 different scene modes and a range of more creative shooting modes available. We reviewed and loved the original DSC-H1 nearly a year ago, so can the Sony DSC-H2 replicate its success?

The Canon Digital IXUS 800 IS is currently Canon’s flagship compact digital camera. An image-stabilized, 4x zoom lens equivalent to 35-140mm, 2.5 inch LCD screen and fast Digic II image processor are just a few of the features on offer.

“Having no garden and working in an office 5 days a week means that the weekends are my only opportunity to photograph nature. This means that I now appreciate my surroundings more.
