Review summary |
Despite its no-frills feature set, the Canon PowerShot SD600 delivers quality photos and strong performance in a small package.
|
Nikon scores big with the D80, its new 10-megapixel, sub-$1,000 dSLR.
|
The Canon PowerShot A590 IS's manual exposure controls and surprisingly sharp pictures make it a great choice for almost anyone looking for a sub-$200 shooter.
|
For most people, the excellent photo quality of the Canon PowerShot SD790 IS will more than make up for any slight performance deficiencies or minor shortcomings.
|
Part smart-looking snapshot camera, part 4GB portable digital photo album, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T700 will satisfy those who like showing off their pictures as much as they like taking them.
