Imaging Resource has posted a review of the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-G3.

Were it just a plain, ordinary, ultracompact digicam, we would call the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-G3 a responsive digital camera with good overall performance. Lens quality is about what you’d expect from any ultracompact, with some softening in the corners at both zoom settings, and moderately high chromatic aberration.

Photo Review has posted a review of the Sigma DP2.

Low-light performance was only marginally better than we found with the DP1, with a severe loss of colour in long exposures that was reflected in both JPEG and raw files. Noise and colour shifts became increasingly obvious from ISO 400 on and 15-second exposures shot at ISO 800 were almost unusable.

PhotographyBLOG has posted a review of the Nikon Coolpix L100.

If this was the first product of a company that is just starting up, I would probably hail it as a promising start – but an established and respectable manufacturer like Nikon should do better, even if superzooms are still something of a novelty on its product palette.

Cnet Asia has posted a review of the Canon EOS 500D (aka Rebel T1i).

The EOS 500D is a very decent dSLR for first-time users and the inclusion of full HD video-recording function sweetens the deal.

Trusted Reviews has posted a review of the Fujifilm FinePix S1500.

Additional features including sensor-shift image stabilisation, scene recognition and tracking AF, as well as some minor image quality tweaks make the S1500 a worthwhile upgrade over the S1000fd.
