DPReview have reviewed the Nikon Coolpix P5000 camera, which offers 10 megapixels, 3.5x zoom lens (36-126mm), Vibration Reduction to combat camera shake, ISO 3200 capability and a 2.5 inch LCD screen.
”...the P5000, in common with most recent Coolpix models, has a serious issue with focus speed that makes it totally unsuitable for use in situations where quick reactions are essential. If you’re taking landscapes you can live with waiting a second (or two if you’re unlucky) for the camera to focus and take the picture, but snapping restless children (or in fact anything moving) is frustrating and ultimately a hit ‘n’ miss affair.”

DCResource have reviewed the new Fujifilm FinePix F40fd camera, which offers 8.3 megapixels, 3x zoom lens, 300 shot battery life, Face Detection technology and support for both xD-Picture Card and SD card formats.
“If you’re looking for a compact camera that’s a great low light shooter, then you should definitely put the Fuji FinePix F40fd on your list. The F40fd is a stylish camera that takes produces high quality photos, even at high ISO settings. There’s a fair amount of noise reduction in the photos (even at lower ISO settings), but for the typical F40 buyer I don’t think this will be an issue. Other nice features on the camera include its beautiful 2.5” LCD display, minimal redeye, and a memory card slot that takes both xD and SD formats. This is a point-and-shoot camera that I can definitely recommend.”

CNET have reviewed the Samsung L700 camera, which offers several advanced features, including a suite of advanced video and editing functions, in a compact, stylish metal body. It has 7 megapixels, 3x optical zoom and a bright 2.5” LCD display.
“Compared to a lot of other budget cameras, Samsung’s L700 offers plenty of options when shooting, including sensitivity, white balance, and exposure compensation. The camera’s sensitivity peaks at ISO 1,600, allowing nice flexibility in low-light and high-speed shooting. White-balance settings include standard (aka auto), cloudy, sunny, tungsten, fluorescent, and manual. We rarely see manual white balance modes in budget cameras, so this came as a pleasant surprise.”

DigitalCameraInfo have just reviewed the new Panasonic DMC-FZ8 camera.
“When the Panasonic FZ8 is up against other ultra-zoomed competition, it still does well. It has manual modes, RAW shooting, and plenty of included software to play with the images. It caters to advanced photographers in this way, but is still very easy to use with its 20 scene modes and intuitive interface.”

CameraLabs have reviewed the new Nikon D40x DSLR, which features a 10.2 megapixel sensor, producing 3,872 x 2,592-pixel images, 3D Colour Matrix Metering II system and 2.5 inch LCD screen, all in the most compact Nikon DSLR ever.
“So the bottom line is whether those extra Megapixels are worth a difference which at the time of writing worked out to be around $200 USD or £100 GBP extra. If you loved everything about the D40 but wished it had 10 Megapixels, then the D40x is undoubtedly the answer. But it’s important to also consider the alternatives available at this higher price point.”

TrustedReviews have reviewed the Pentax W30, a waterproof digital camera offering 7.1 megapixels, 3x optical zoom and two new Shake Reduction modes.
“Picture quality is about average for a 7MP compact. Exposure is generally good, although in standard multi-zone metering mode it does tend to under-expose in strong backlighting. Colour rendition is very good, and the lens performs well despite its unusual configuration. It has noticeable barrel distortion at the wide-angle end of the zoom range, but overall detail and corner sharpness are a match for any other 7MP pocket compact. As I’ve already mentioned, the W30 does suffer from quite bad image noise at high ISO settings, but as long as you keep it under 800 it isn’t a major problem.”

Digital Outback Photo have reviewed the Delkin SensorScope, the first and only sensor inspection device in the market designed for DSLRs.
“Using the scope, I was able to clean the sensor of all debris as effectively as if I were reviewing an image on the computer. I used this with a Canon 1DsMk2, which required a little bit of moving the scope around to see into the corners. This wouldn’t be the case for APS sized sensors, and was not a deal-breaker for a full size sensor.”
