Thom Hogan has posted a review of the Nikon D3x.

As I’ve written above, the D3x is probably the best DSLR in terms of image quality so far. But the problem is value. There simply isn’t US$5700 worth of value in a D3x over a D700.

2am Collection from Acme Made

by on January 17, 2009

in News

Acme Made has announced a few new camera cases that I think my wife would call chic.  Unforntunately (or, or fortunately – depending on how you see it), I’m not a big judge of fashion.  However, when my wife saw the new SLIP Pouch from Acme Made, she made cooing noises that I generally associate with trips to the mall.  I took this as a positive opinion on her behalf.

These new cases are surprisingly affordable and will be available in March 2009.

Gentlemen, I would not be caught carrying one of these camera cases; however, you may be otherwise inclined – or, perhaps, like me, you should pick one up for your better half.

Ladies, please judge accordingly in the comments.

More details and images, which were pulled from Acme Made’s press sheet, appear below. [click to continue…]

Photo Induced has published a review of the Canon G10.

Solid, beautiful digital files, even as the Canon RAW format has been incorporated into the most popular photo editing software.

PhotographyBLOG has published a review of the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX150.

We’d even go so far as to suggest this has to be one of the best options for the more discerning photographer who doesn’t want to kart around a DSLR or a more compact bridge camera on nights out or the occasional day trip.

Digital Camera Review has posted a review of Canon PowerShot SD990 IS.

Premium construction and a few crucial upgrades aside, it’s a back-to-basics ultracompact that serves up straightforward performance that’s easy to manage.
