Microland Technology UK - Worst Company Ever Award

I recently reviewed the Mecury CyberPix S-330 which I purchased from Microland Technology, the camera was faulty (it would reset sometimes when taking pictures with flash), so I sent the product back to Microland Technology for a refund - 2 months later and I am STILL waiting for a refund and have had to get Trading Standards involved! According to this page, there are MANY many more people still waiting for refunds of hundreds of pounds! Romulus 2 : Microland Technology UK - User Reviews & Ratings - in fact if you do a Google search, you will find many more horror stories of BAD service from Microland Technology.

Fuji FinePix S7000 Digital Camera Review @ digitalcamerainfo.com

Fuji FinePix S7000 Digital Camera Review @ digitalcamerainfo.com "The Fuji FinePix S7000 is a chameleon of sorts and can mold itself into (almost) anything you want it to be. Falling into the SLR-like category this digital camera has many of the same features as an SLR – body size and shape, manual control options, and physical features, while also having the ability to “dumb down” to point-and-shoot level."

Canon Digital Ixus 430 Review @ DCMag

Digital Camera Equipment - Canon Digital Ixus 430: "The 430's performance is lacking in many respects for a camera that will set you back 350GBP - you'd expect much more. Overall image quality is lacking with poor tonal range, edge sharpness, oversaturation of colour and contrast. On the plus side, it looks good, feels durable and has a long battery life."

Centon DC5 Review @ DCMag

Digital Camera Equipment - Centon DC5: "The Centon DC5 looks good, handles well and has lots of features... but it disappoints with its rough image quality and poor colour. Don't be swayed by all those cheap extra megapixels. Go for a mainstream three or four megapixel camera and you'll be much happier with the images you produce." This is the same camera as the Benq DC C50 that I reviewed here.

Samsung Digimax 301 Review @ DCMag

Digital Camera Equipment - Samsung Digimax 301: "For 100GBP you can't go too wrong, though the lack of optical zoom and washed-out skin are big niggles. Also consider the FujiFilm A205, which has a 3x optical zoom but one less megapixel. Stump up another 50-70GBP, and there's a wider choice, including the Konica Minolta DiMAGE Xg and the Olympus C-350 Zoom." Or you could try the Pentax 33LF at amazon.co.uk for 99GBP.

Kodak EasyShare LS743 Review @ DCMag

Digital Camera Equipment - Kodak EasyShare LS743 "Enjoying digital photography is easy with the effortless yet innovative, compact yet sophisticated, LS743. German optics, an intuitive interface and a decent resolution round off a polished product. It competes in a crowded sector but if Kodak continues like this, it will become a formidable brand once more."

Kodak Easyshare CX7330 Digital Camera Review

Kodak Easyshare CX7330 Digital @ digitalcamerainfo.com: "The Kodak EasyShare CX7330 is a point-and-shooters dream. It is hands down one of the best cameras on the market for users who don't want to think about anything. Its simple design brings to mind a toy, but its image quality isn't a joke."

Olympus Camedia C-5060 Zoom Review @ PhotographyBLOG

PhotographyBLOG -:- Reviews -:- Olympus Camedia C-5060 Zoom: "First announced in September last year, the 5 megapixel C-5060 Zoom is currently the second most advanced compact camera in the Olympus lineup, behind the 8 megapixel C-8080 Zoom. Probably it's main attraction is the 27-110mm lens, which opens up wide-angle photography again in a marketplace dominated by cameras with lenses that start at 35mm."

HP Photosmart 945 Review @ Imaging Resource

Digital Cameras - Hewlett Packard Photosmart 945 Digital Camera Review, Information, Specifications: "If you're an 'enthusiast' photographer looking for high image quality, low image noise, and lots of control, I don't think the Photosmart 945 is for you. On the other hand, if you're a former 'point & shoot' user looking for an easy step up to the next level, the 945 could be just the ticket."

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F88 Review: 1. Introduction: Digital Photography Review: "Never shy of giving the consumer an almost bewildering array of choices, in May 2004 Sony added yet another (its fifth) 5 megapixel, 3x zoom camera, the DSC-F88 to its 2004 range. Seasoned Sony watchers will immediately recognize the inner swivel lens design, which has made several appearances in Sony's product lineup since the DSC-F1 back in 1996."

Pentax Optio MX Digital Camera Review @ Imaging-Resource: "Those wanting a hybrid digital still and video camera with a satisfying zoom and no costly digital video tapes to mess with may want to consider the Optio MX. With an available 120 minutes of continuous movie and sound recording time (depending on resolution, memory space, etc.), the Optio MX operates as both a digital still camera and a digital video camera.

Casio EX-P600 Review at megapixel.net

Fujifilm Finepix S7000 Review at Photoxels

"The Fujifilm FinePix S7000 Zoom is intuitive to use, and it is easy to obtain great images in Programmed Auto mode. With 6x optical zoom, 6.3MP resolution, full exposure flexibility, and beautiful colour reproduction, the S7000 provides an easy-to-use entry into the prosumer category. The all-black body looks very professional as well as being unobstrusive. Construction is high-quality and handling and feel is superb." Full review at photoxels

Canon PowerShot A400 Review @ e-Fotografija

Canon PowerShot A400 Review @ e-Fotografija (in english) "A400 has 2.2x zoom lens. Focal range is from 5.9mm (45mm) to 13.2mm (100mm). This means that we are limited at the wide angle and might have some troubles photographing in small rooms. There is also 3.2x digital zoom. Maximum aperture is fixed 1:3.8 at all focus distances."

Canon EOS 20D Review Part Two @ Luminous Landscape

Canon EOS 20D Review Part Two "The Canon 20D deliver first rate image quality. Clearly superior to those from the 10D in several aspects. All of those that stood on their soapboxes prior to the 20D's launch pontificating on how higher pixel count sensors of the same size simply couldn't have as low noise, let alone lower noise, can now go to the back of the class."

Fuji FinePix F440 - at DCResource

DCRP Review - Fuji FinePix F440 "The Fuji FinePix F440 ($399) is a compact 4.1 Megapixel camera that packs just a bit more zoom than other cameras in its class: 3.4X. The F440 has a traditional CCD sensor, rather than the SuperCCD that Fuji has been putting in their cameras over the last few years. The 3.4X zoom lens isn't the only larger-than-average item on the camera: there's also the 2.0" LCD display."

Fujifilm Finepix F420 Review - PhotographyBLOG

Fujifilm Finepix F420 Review - PhotographyBLOG: "The FujiFilm FinePix F420 is by far the smallest camera that I have ever reviewed, measuring just 7.7cm wide and 6.9 cm high." 3mp, 3x Optical zoom.

Canon PowerShot S1 IS Review: @ Digital Photography Review

Canon PowerShot S1 IS Review: 1. Introduction: Digital Photography Review "Announced in February 2004, the PowerShot S1 IS is the long overdue successor to Canon's last 10x Zoom Image Stabilized compact, (the PowerShot Pro90 IS). It is not only much smaller and lighter, but a lot less expensive - (hardly surprising given the three year gap). Despite the aggressive pricing (the S1 IS is available online for as little as $315) this is a highly specified camera with a feature set that doesn't fall that far short of 'prosumer' models such as the G5 or even the Pro 1."

Questions and Answers

If you have any questions about digital cameras, or would like some information and advice about digital cameras - please ask! Simply email goshwa at hotmail.com or leave a comment below, and I'll try and be as helpful as possible in answering your question.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Sandisk plus USB What Memory Card Should I buy for my Digital Camera?

If you're wondering what kind of memory card you should buy, SD, SDHC, MicroSD, XD, Compact Flash, Sony Memory Stick, or wondering whether you should buy a SanDisk, Kingston, Integral or Transcend, or what speed and class to buy, or if you're wondering how you can get a memory card connected to your USB sockets, then have a look at our guide to digital camera memory cards.

What Size Memory Card Should I buy, and how many photos will fit on my card?

Memory card prices are regularly coming down in price, but if you'd like some extra help in deciding what size to buy, and would like to know how many photos you'll fit on your card, then have a look at this article

I can't get the photos off my camera, I've lost my driver CD, I've had to re-install Windows, I've lost my camera's cable, how can I get my photos on my computer now?

One of the simplest and easiest ways of dealing with this problem is to buy a USB multi-card memory card reader, simply make sure it supports your type of memory card, plug it into a USB socket, and away you go. Depending on which version of Windows you have, you may not need to load any drivers. Plus you can move it from PC to PC, and use it with future cameras you have.

Can you help me decide which camera I should buy? Which one is better, camera A, or camera B?

Because everybody's needs are different, some people may be more interested in one feature over another, I can't always tell you which camera you should buy. Especially if I haven't reviewed the camera myself. In order to help you choose, I've written this guide on "How to choose a good digital camera - Try before you Buy"

I can't use my SD Memory card, the camera says "Card Locked", "This memory card is protected", or "Memory card is protected" - what can I do to unlock the card?

Kingston 512mb SD Card SD (Secure Digital) Memory cards have a small lock on the side (yellow on this card pictured here), if this is pushed into the lock position (as shown), it will let you read and view the images and data on the card but it won't let you record new pictures / videos or data onto the card. It will also stop you from formatting the card. To fix this, simply take the memory card out of the camera and slide the lock to the unlocked position, if you lay the card down, as shown above, the unlocked position should always be up, on some cards it may not be as clearly visible as on this card. Some Sony Memory Sticks also have a small lock on them.

I have accidentally erased all my pictures off my memory card. Is there anybody who would know if that can be reversed? How can I get the images back?

If you've ever accidentally deleted some important photos, then this can help: Free Undelete is a completely free utility to recover deleted files and photos from your PC's hard drive or from a memory card connected to your computer. If you have a Sony memory stick, then you can use Sony's free image recovery software, alternatively try ZA Recovery.

Which Ultra Zoom Digital Camera should I buy?

A friend has emailed to ask which ultra zoom digital camera he should buy, he is tempted by the Olympus SP-550 Ultra Zoom... More information on the pros and cons of the different ultra zoom digital cameras can be found here, and you can also look at the Top Digital Cameras Reviewed to see which cameras are rated as the "Best Zoom" camera. It would also be worth trying before you buy especially as ultra zoom cameras often vary greatly in size and handling.
