The E-330 has a weight and dimensions that are comparable to most current dSLR cameras.

Kodak Easyshare Z612 Review
Digital Camera Review have reviewed the new Kodak Easyshare Z612 – it features a 12x optical zoom lens with image stabilisation, a 2.5″ screen, a 6 megapixel sensor, and records MPEG4 VGA videos at 30fps. The camera features 32mb of built in memory. The camera is available from £235:
“The Kodak EasyShare Z612 offers users a nice balance of prosumer flexibility, advanced features, and P&S (point and shoot) ease of use. How does the Z612 stack up against its competition? Overall, the Z612 has more warts than a bullfrog, but in the end it’s all about the pictures and when it counts and where it counts (except for macro) the Z612 delivers.”

“While there are numerous noise issues with the P712 that might cause some swings and misses, the camera still has a lot to offer.

“The EVOLT E-500 is easy to pick up and use, and is thus well-suited to novices or anyone who doesn’t relish reading thick manuals just to take those first few shots. Of course, you’ll get the most out of the camera if you do read the manual . Those who’ve used other Olympus cameras including their digital point and shoot models will feel right at home since the E-500 has similar menus and some of the same Scene modes.”

Canon Powershot S3 IS Review
Luminous Landscape have reviewed the new Canon Powershot S3 IS, a 6 megapixel update to the Canon Powershot S2 IS, the black digital camera features a 12x optical zoom lens with image stabilisation, DIGIC II chip, VGA 30fps movie mode, ISO upto 800, and a 2″ swivel screen. The S3 IS is available from £313:
“The Canon S3′s strength lies in its small size and long zoom reach, combined with Image Stabilization. While not a pocket digicam, it is coat pocket size, and therefore quite inconspicuous and portable. The use of AA batteries adds to the versatility, and a very high quality movie mode with a dedicated activation button are icing on the cake. At under US $500 retail this camera is a relative bargain.”
