Canon PowerShot SD780 IS

We've seen dozens of cameras to start this spring, $ 279 Canon PowerShot SD780 IS, pint-size point-and-shoot, stands out with one of the sleekest, templates. With the built-in accelerometer, you get the exact colors also, HD video recording, intelligent Auto mode, Fast face detection and diluted LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD). More advanced photographers get fed low low-light performance and the macro, but casual Shooters to appreciate its quality and love its portability.

4-Ounce SD780 IS is one of the few pocket cameras, which actually fits in a pocket. 3.4 x 2.2 x 0.7 inches, we had even the possibility of packing slip comfortably inside pocket of our skinny jeans. It is a thin, boxy shape, which looks more modern than you can find elsewhere, including other templates, Canon configuration pillowy shapes.3 X of the front of the lens does not, although its jäljellejäävä around the tyre is large. When, in a thin, flat, rectangular shape of the SD780 is a bit like a cell phone, the mood.

Aluminum shell and a red, black, silver and gold, edgy design available to add to the camera, even if it chooses, up to the scratches easily. (Casio's Exilim EX-FC 100, for example, is made of copper alloy, which seemed to be more durable in our testing).

Take the shape of the slower is svelte, that SD780 IS a small 2, 5-inch LCD (230,000 pixels), the small buttons to respond. The power button and the shutter button at the top are small, as it is attached to the shutter, which controls the zoom Switch.Behind are the player, screen, and the menu buttons; three-way valves-switch with units of the car, the program and Movie modes; and remove the double-focus, whose edges, self-timer, Flash and exposure of the components of a navigational watch to a four-pad. Although the small buttons is a nice feature, having so many alternatives for such a small pad sometimes difficult shot for the experience.

Liquid crystal display, although a little small, eventually won by the US, thanks to its built-in accelerometer. The orientation of the camera changes seen in the Photos when it detects a movement, from vertical to horizontal and vice versa (handy to be able to see the vertical shots).We used a variety of conditions, including dimly lit bowling alley Shooting SD780 IS and sunny days, and was always comfortably outside the screen viewable.

SD780 IS not advanced Shooters: still Shooting is auto-and program, but in manual mode.Auto mode will not be able to change any settings; instead, Smart auto mode to provide them for you. It was diluted to see the screen icon in the notification area, point to macro, and then when we are able to change the stated per camera people, near the area of the object.

Program mode, you can adjust all the usual suspects — exposure, flash, white balance, ISO. Program mode, if the camera off and then back, regulations when it last used.Program mode, users can also select 20 scene modes.

Display menus are easy to master;tabbed interface, most cameras are separated by Shooting and camera settings. Canon's menus are colorful and modern, but the possibilities are rarely used them. If the Plugin Auto-mode, Smart auto do all the work for you. But even if the Program mode, most controls are located on the part of a navigational watch on the ground. You can turn them on the page I have made a small pad crammed on is that you can find almost all, pinch, you need in one place.

Where reference is made to the regulations by our customers after their stay at SD780 IS allocated to a Member State to fulfil obligations — people who want a camera that is a small town or a daytime running lamp outing every night, their Pocket suitable — image quality is sufficient.On and off the colors were accurate. The camera really shines in particular, when there is a natural lighting in the Office Assistant or the Windows of the tilannetyyppi — in the room.

In other situations, was less impressive.Flash drown many of our macro shots, even if the camera had a very sharp in the foreground to background keep hämärtymisenä.Low-light situations and brightened the camera effectively our topics and face detection face still more picked up almost immediately.But even the lit room noise appeared incandescently sound surfaces such as wood furniture. Slow a four-second shot shot speed meant that we could not have been a few shots I wanted to mention friend such as bowling (or Amiata his strike).

One of the slower from a camera, this small is that it is only a 3 X Optical zoom, most mid-range cameras is more versatile 4 X and 5 X lenses. close-range situations — sitting in the living room, with friends, for example — was wonderful.But when we become more open spaces, such as a bowling alley and backyard, we craved a little more zoom.

SD780 is 720 p video store 30 frames per second.SD780 IS is the cheapest of the camera, the company's configuration, which describes the HD video.You can also use the zoom feature on the results of the relatively steady during the filming. even if the camera will remain active when you zoom the movie mode is easy to push digital zoom area accidentally, which the camera starts to lose focus.But with the still shots, such as most of the cameras, it shall suspend, optical and digital zoom line between.

As we have with other HD dot-and-shoots, such as the FC100, video is only as good as yet in spite of the fact that the motion had photographs. smooth, comfortable, sound and accurate colors of the same low-threshold a little light to comply with the terms and conditions apply. so, if your photos look too bad in a particular situation, that the video will.

SD780 is the battery is the nominal life of 210 shots. Indeed, when we have been able to take 200 shots as well as a handful of videos, close to the low-battery warning before retrieving it.

Even if the camera takes only a second to enable and disable, lasted four seconds to ready yourself consecutive shots, which is not unreasonable for the purposes of point-and-shoot between. However, is faster, for example, cameras; FC100 takes only 2 seconds between shots. SD780 is supported by years of warranty.

Most of the $ 279 for the Canon PowerShot SD780 IS is a solid mid-range point-and-shoot: it is a decent image quality, save the HD video, and is one of the most pocket cameras, we have seen for a while, some of the deficiencies, overexposed. shots when you use the macro, and low light performance, such as, for example, be it back to the higher rating provided by the casual photographers may but there is this small camera, rather than one that is simply great close-ups or low-light Shooting.

Casio Exilim EX-F1

One of the first of the first Casio Exilim EX: n-F 1 does not have a digital SLR. Although it looks like one, is for people who love the characterization as much as capture photos. In addition to targeting 6 megapixel still photos, EX-F 1 can fire up to 60 shots per second, record full HD movies, disabled, and then do slow down the movement videos using high-speed Shooting up to a maximum of 1 200 frames per second. EX-F 1 was built for people who love the action photography or you want a camera that can do double duty as a video camera and, on the basis of our tests, it is certainly a breakthrough.

Three things to make the EX-F 1-appearance such as DSLR: the electronic view Finder, with all its Chunky shape — rubbery ergonomic hand grip — and a long glass of 12 x. DSLR is much lighter compared to.1. the 5 Pounds, it weighs less than many DSLRs when removable lenses author. EX-F 1 removable lens is rotating ring, which can be programmed control focus, burst rate and the zoom factor.

2. the 8-inch LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) is the Live View, as well as other point-and-shoot digital does-so advanced Shooters and in order to enable it, press the EVF/LCD button, fixed at the rear. We had to display pictures in Sunny days, THE LCD is not a problem.

Unlike the simpler point-and-shoots with a few buttons are self-explanatory, EX-F 1 requires that you Read the instructions for use. Up are the two indicators: one in the camera premises, and the second is continually shot options. Also from the top are the power button and the shutter with rotating Switch for adjusting the zoom.

On the left side are the focus, backlight correction and the AE-L/AF-L buttons (the latter locks the exposure and focus).Save button on the back is the video it is rotating Switch for selecting high-speed shooting, Shooting high definition (1920 × 1080) or standard-def Shooting (640 x 480).EX-F1 is a four-touchpad also scroll wheel of the surrounding it, as a fixed menu, view, playback and record buttons.

Fortunately, you receive an error message that the menus are less complex. you've probably adjust the settings — ISO and white balance sheet, for example — must correspond to the icons on the right side of the mountain of the liquid crystal display. use the up and down-arrow keys to highlight, and to the right and left customizations. we want to make the menu button is pressed the highlighted settings are shown in red, and all other gray; it makes the transition to all easy manual settings.

Canon EOS Rebel T2i

The first DSLRs included in HD video recording Canon EOS Rebel T1i (now $ 799) won the high rating from us, its moving and still image quality, as well as its easy user interface. T2i ($ 899) to improve on this full HD 720 p video updating and adding burst Shooting course 3.4.3.7 frames per second. Image quality is the best, stunning, enough to impress Beginner and intermediate photographers.

T2i is a lightweight (1.6 pounds) of plastic body that seems very well done. Rubber coated hand-handle is sufficiently deep, it is easy to plug this camera one handedly.More experienced users can use the Manual mode dial-up connection at the top of the camera, but later photographers find buttons and controls the relative lack of comforting. the health mark must also use the context OF THE ISO button, a dial-up connection (with a view to adapting the exposure to say), and of course the power switch and the shutter.

T2i on the back side of a bright 3-inch LCD 1.04 million points, which served us well in sunlight in high resolution. The camera button on the right side of the exposure, Playback, delete, menu, display and video recording buttons are.5 ways to part of a navigational watch, self-timer for pad doubles the white balance, auto focus, and so that the controls. [1] [2] one thing we can't change: red flashing lights for the optical viewfinder could have seemed greater when we are focused on something; as such, are a little too subtle.

When T2i has simple DSLR, such as $ 549 EOS-XS appearance it is sophisticated in its entirety. Xs is the concentration of less than 10-MP resolution and previous generation image processor, as well as the smaller of the 2.5-inch LCD screen and ISO 1600 years. In addition, it does not record video with full HD T2i does not.

T2i has 18-MP CMOS sensor, the same, which is $ 1,699 EOS 7 d Sensor has its own State-of-the-art cleaning, just as older Rebel XSi. To determine whether or not there is little natural light in the room in the basement ammutusta or outside, sunlight, we were stunned the vibrant colors and depth of field. Our portrait and the macro shots, which are included in the 18-55 mm lens with our favorite test shots.

Low light T2i has shown well, although we wanted to see a little more detail, for example, a friend of a permanent shadow. otherwise dim room window on the front of the shot, his face appeared on the shadow, though the background looked a bit washed out. In cases like this we wish the camera was a great dynamic range setting, the Sony Alpha GENERATION NEX-3 ways.Even if you go up to the standard ISO 6,400, T2i, 12,800 can contribute to (this is a pretty standard; $ 699 Nikon D3100 is the same as the ISO data).When the camera burst Shooting 3.7 fps count is not as fast as the amount of $ 899 Nikon D90, 4.7 fps T2i had autofocus quickly, and we found a little shutter lag time.A good test for this: targeting untrammelled by the New York street shots of tourists and other passers-by walked the sidewalk and the frame.

Such as fashion shoots HD video T1i T2i, but resolution is now more 1080p-720 p (users can shoot 30 fps, 25 fps or 24 fps).Although we loved the detail, of the one part, and the level of sound quality, DSLR video vulnerabilities are usually still. These include the inability of the autofocus, while at the same time filming; if you try to twist tester or similar their own lens zoom ring during recording, the picture becomes unclear. even without a tripod, it is difficult to keep the camera steady to the conclusion of a material.

N Canon EOS T2i ($ 899 with 18-55 mm lens) strikes a couple of Nice balances: it is easy enough for novices to use but contains enough features to satisfy, in General, would you like their manual cameras to intermediate users exploit. the most important thing to change settings or leave the camera to auto, so the image quality is gorgeous, T2i is bound to impress even the users that some time Shooting People looking for a DSLR. HD video recording capabilities and a few more options than the simple manual DSLR (such as the EOS-XS or the Editors ' Choice award-winning Nikon D3000) with T2i has an excellent choice.

Casio Exilim Card EX-P. 10

Casio cameras in the world, thin is always is, and the new Exilim Card EX-S 10 so low, it may issue a runway models series of money. Only 0.36 cm thick thinnest in turn is EX-S 10 is our you have tested the best designed camera for taking into account the strict a couple of jeans pocket by sieving. The paper has some good features, such as 10.1 megapixel image sensor, 3 X Optical zoom and 2.7-inch LCD. However, it makes too many compromises, for us to recommend anything other than the very exercise of the basic regulation, the shadow copy thinness.

We wish the picture taking S10 EX chops corresponds to its designer, according to the body: you will be bound to a smart style, something that dazzled Casio has been cleaning, because its the first wearable Card camera came out in 2002.Available in four colors (red, blue, silver and black), EX-S 10 is hard, polycarbonate-location, which seems a little rubber. Some nice stainless steel accents around the lens, there is also a metal band at the top of the camera's sides.

2.7-inch (230,160-pixels) Super clear LCD is only 0.2 inches larger than the Canon-SD 1100, but seemed to be much larger. It was also very Clear and bright, wide viewing angle, which was solely for the convenience of checking and previewing shots in sunlight. Unfortunately, the camera buttons are rather small, and they took some getting help.

Extend the power of the camera, lens, and it was ready to shoot at least 2 seconds. Not bad for many of our shots. do not unfortunately so sharp as we wanted to make them public, it is incredible that Casio was able to incorporate, extends 3 X lens of the camera, which is this thin, but the company has clearly made some compromises optics.The majority of our close-ups flowers macro mode were a bit soft and several were completely out of focus the camera lens was suggesting that the problems with zeroing details close distances.

Portraits were the camera auto shutter bar function that triggers the shutter automatically when it detects a smile would be in a better, thanks to the kind of cheesy but is useful if you have stubborn topic.EX-S 10 produced decent but slightly oversaturated colors.

Our landscape photographs of the George Washington Bridge, Manhattan and New Jersey EX-S 10 produced usually flat images is much softness at the corners.The camera was equally poorly of our shots Basketball game: almost all of the pictures is unclear.

Casio has made some increase its Movie mode, in which it is the brand than YouTube capture mode, because the camera video clips on the site automatically optimizes the bundled Casio software. [1] [2] makes it easy for you to download movies from YouTube Video two-step process now best. [2] [3], shall be forwarded to the h.264 video format that is compatible with Mac and directory.

The video quality was, however, only the so-so the recording was very easy. [1] [2], EX, thanks to the dedicated to video camera S10 back-button, our digital camera, 640 x 480 (30 fps) in the clips were a little jittery and zoom was far away from topics will focus on the problems.

If the slimness, style, and portability of digital cameras only important aspects, then the Casio Exilim Card EX-S 10 wins hands down. [1] [2] Unfortunately, even though it has some nice features — including an excellent overall performance — LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) and as soon as possible, the S10 EX lens was unable to maintain our images sharp and lagged the image quality.

Sony HDR-UX 10

If you have ever shopped for DVDS, video cameras, Sony's HDR-UX 10 it Show as a big step forward. It offers full 1920 × 1080 video (1080i), option if you want to save the video and photos to DVD or Memory Stick. Typically, device captures very good video, but it still has some problems.

Sony has improved the company's products are used in most of the interaction of the touchscreen, but HDR-UX 10, the menu is not marked, are organized or well provided for the users of the system learns eventually., but ran out of the box, of course, this is not the most intuitive video camera on the market.

Mechanical controls are much better;external buttons are low and visibly marked. Unfortunately, the release of the soft-touch zoom can cause audible click as it is brought back to the center position, which can be heard on the soundtrack. The upside of Sony's impressive 15 X Optical zoom is the fastest and sujuvimman We used.

1-pound-heavy, but the camera sounds UX10 is close to our ideal weight; it is enough to heavy, the steady shots are not a problem but light enough to drop into a bag.The unit fulfils all the conditions set out in the adult hand Palm tree, but considers natural as the supporting documents. We had to see the whole of sunlight LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) screen data problems.
The camera features four quality levels which result (from the lowest quality) 11, 20, 25 and 32 minutes 1.4 GB per disk.(Standard definition recording is also an option that offers much to write per gigabyte.) Shooting at the highest resolution (1920 × 1080) obtained a good, but not stellar results. The colors looked a bit faded and the whole picture was epämääräisiin Himmennetyn appearance.

Progressive mode, as well as material, we would often that super-detailed pictures felt jerky when Visual Visual change in the region as a whole, such as, for example, grass and dirt in the branch of the tree shadows, dappled patches that much.

Low light you will see a lot of noise even slight shadows; We shot in the living room of the night, the illuminated three lamps and thus serious noise dark furniture and all the shadows.All of our material, however, the camera mic runs very quiet environment, even sound capturing.We wanted to face detection and slow down the shutter features, which could be regarded as having been made in the face of the focus and properly exposed when backlit.

The convenience of DVD writing is mitigated by two factors.First of all, 1920 × 1080 video does not play back on a regular basis, the implementation of the disc or Blu-ray DVD players from the compatibility issues with the AVCHD recording format.Secondly, the standard 3-inch, 1.4 GB disc is only 11 minutes of full HD video.

It makes use of the opportunity to save the memory is more attractive because in this case as offers more flexibility, better maximum bitrate (16 Mbps/14 Mbps to disk) and better battery life of approximately 60 minutes of recording time instead of 50. There is only 6 minutes per GB (gigabyte) of at least, however, you may want to 4 GB of memory. [1] [2] good news is that the dropping of the down to the level of the standard quality of the video continues to produce decent, and for as long as your own subjects very well lit.

Families take DVD camcorder with a bent but displays its results in modern TV I hope is a reasonable option UX10. But THE DVD storage high-def Shooting in combination with restrictions to make the entire package is less than-Buy would otherwise have occurred, to a Slightly more money Sony. [2] [3] provides a number of very similar cameras, which saves hard disks instead of DVDS. Save to disk, do these templates limitations seem more blatant and Canon and Sanyo offers appear clearly more competition.
