This Week’s (March 15-19, 2010) Digital Camera Review Roundup

Here is this week’s (March 15-19, 2010) digital camera review roundup:

  • The Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS7 / TZ10 continues to be a popular model to be reviewed (2 were reviewed last week): Camera Labs loved it and gave it a “Highly Recommended” score. DCRP (dcresource) liked it, including the “well-implemented GPS,” but thought that the high ISO image quality is not as good as in the camera it is replacing.
  • Trusted Reviews thought that the Casio Exilim EX-Z2000 is a real bargain and is “proof that Casio can make a luxury ultra-compact camera just as well as the bigger names in the market.”
  • The Nikon Coolpix S8000 is the world’s thinnest 10x ultra zoom and Tech Radar thought it’d make a great compact ultra zoom for those who want a pocketable 300mm (equiv.) lens.
  • PhotographyBLOG liked the touchscreen Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP3 and recommends it as an affordable and portable holiday camera, especially if you are visiting bright and sunny places.
  • For those who want a pocket HD camcorder, Tech Radar finds that the new Sony PM5K Bloggie with its rotating lens, unique 360° add-on lens, and uncomplicated online video sharing make it “great fun to use.”
  • DPReview finds that the Ricoh GXR S10 unit is just not justified on price with its compact digicam image quality.
  • Steve’s Digicams found the Canon PowerShot A3100 IS to be “an easy-to-use entry-level digicam that anyone can operate.
  • DigitalCameraInfo ranked the image quality of the Samsung NX10 DIL camera higher than that of the mFTs.
  • The proof-everything Olympus TOUGH-8010 is previewed by PhotographyReview.
  • PhotographyBLOG loved the touch screen on the Canon PowerShot SD3500 IS / IXUS 210 but was not impressed with the image quality.
  • Imaging Resource, on the other hand, loved the superb usability and low light modes of the Sony HX5V.
  • TrustedReviews got their hands wet with the Casio EX-G1 and liked its class-leading shock protection, ease of use and image quality.
  • TechRadar finds that the Canon EOS T2i / 550D will reward you with pro-quality images at a mass-market price.
  • DigitalCameraInfo finds that the Panasonic TS2 / FT2 is one tough camera that does not sacrifice image quality.
