I've posted my review of the Canon PowerShot SD790 IS Digital ELPH (also known as the IXUS 90 IS), an ultra-compact 10 Megapixel camera. Those of you shopping for any model in the ELPH/IXUS series may find the "family tree" at the top of the review to be useful.

Panasonic introduced four new Lumix cameras today, and the most interesting one
(to me, at least) is the DMC-LX3. Those of you who remember the "good old days"
of cameras with fast lenses will be pleased to see these specs:

Next up is the Lumix DMC-FZ28 super zoom camera. This is a relatively minor
upgrade to the DMC-FZ18 -- nothing groundbreaking here. The specs follow:

The last two new Panasonics are ultra-compact models in their FX series. The
DMC-FX37 and DMC-FX150 are replacements for the FX35 and FX100, respectively.
Here are their specs:

I have finally posted my review of the Fuji FinePix
S100fs. I'm sure many of

the lengthy delay in getting this review completed.

Samsung released four new cameras today, featuring things such as a 14.7 Megapixel CCD and dual "fuel gauges" showing battery life and memory card capacity. I don't have as many specs as I'd like, but if I get them, I'll update these news items. Let's start with the top end model, the TL34HD:

Next, we have the TL9, which has a totally wacky "fuel gauge" on the top of it, displaying both memory card and battery capacity. Check it out:

After several weeks of time off, I'm finally getting back into the groove of
writing reviews. Today I've got a review of the Olympus
Stylus 1030SW, an ultra-compact
camera that's "everything-proof". But does it take good pictures? Find
out in my review!

430EX II external flash. The camera will ship with an image
stabilized 18 - 55 mm lens in August for $699, while the flash will retail
for $329. You can read more about both of these in our original
news item from a few weeks ago.

Nikon today rolled out their new full-frame D700 digital SLR. The best way
to describe the D700 is that it's a D3 in a smaller, lighter package. It has
the same FX-format sensor, stunning image quality, super-fast performance,
and build quality as Nikon's flagship model, all in a body just a bit larger
than the D300. Here's the full list of details:

I've finally posted my review of the Canon EOS Rebel XSI / EOS-450D. This review was supposed to be posted on Monday night, but I ran into some technical difficulties that kept me from completing it while I was on the road. Thanks for your patience!

Canon took the wraps off their new Rebel XS digital SLR today. The XS, which
replaces the Rebel XTi, is a stripped-down version of the Rebel XSi and will
be Canon's new entry-level D-SLR. The camera will officially be announced in
the U.S. next month, so I'll have pricing and availability at that time. For
now, here are the specs:

Pentax has released a new lens designed specifically for their digital SLRs. The new F4 AL, 17 - 70 mm SDM lens features two "hybrid aspherical" lens elements, a "supersonic" lens motor, and a dust/water resistant coating. Do note that the SDM lens motor is only supported on the K10D, K20D, K100D Super, and K200D, so it will be a manual focus lens on everything else. The 17 - 70 will ship in July for under $600.
