PCMag - 11/30/2006 - has a review of the 10 megapixel Canon PowerShot G7 and here’s the verdict - “I wasn’t overwhelmed by the G7’s performance, although I did find its burst speed in standard mode to be excellent, letting you fire consistently for dozens of shots without stalling. The camera’s boot-up time of 2.6 seconds is decent, but the 3.3-second recycle time was just okay. I was, however, disheartened to find some fairly prominent shutter lag, more than I’d like to see on an enthusiast camera. I found very little barrel or pincushion distortion, however. And the G7’s lens-based image stabilization worked quite well too, in both bright and low light.”

DPExpert - 11/30/2006 - has a review of the 10 megapixel Canon PowerShot G7 and here’s the verdict - “This camera is a joy to use, except for the absence of the swivelling LCD screen which is incredibly useful. But the images are disappointing. The pixel madness has Canon in its grip — this is the second camera from the company that has disappointed by its excess pixel-induced image degradation. And to think that nine months ago Canon announced that the pixel race was over.”

TrustedReviews - 11/30/2006 - has reviewed the 7.24 megapixel Ricoh Caplio R5 and here’s the verdict - “Ricoh proves once again that it can match and often exceed anything its rivals can produce. The Caplio R5 has a unique specification, combining wide angle and long telephoto abilities, effective image stabilisation and a usable high ISO setting, with good image quality and outstanding performance. Its only weak point is its poor low light focusing ability.”

HardwareZone - 11/30/2006 - has posted an in-depth review of the 10 megapixel Canon PowerShot G7 and here’s the verdict - “The Canon Powershot G7 is a brilliant camera to have around for almost all kinds of occasions. It is handy, portable and packs a whole lot of useful features in a sturdy metal body. Armed with a 6x optical zoom and optical image stabilizer, the G7 is more than capable for telephoto shoots with little or no blurring. Even macro shooting was very well implemented as we were able to get a clean sharp shot at items 5mm away from the lens.”

PopPhoto - 11/30/2006 - has reviewed the 7.0 megapixel Ultra-Wide Angle Kodak EasyShare V705 and here’s their verdict - “The EasyShare V705 is a well-mannered camera that has some useful and interesting features. The V705 has the rock-solid feel of a much more expensive camera, but at a fraction of the price, and the super-wide angle abilities place the V705 head and shoulders above most of its competition. Throw in the video editing, panoramic features, overall good performance, and good image quality, and you’ve got a winner.”

PCW - 11/30/2006 - has reviewed the 7 megapixel point-and-shoot digital camera the Pentax Optio T20 and here is the verdict - “Image quality is good, with natural-looking colours and pleasing levels of detail from such a physically small lens. Build quality is excellent. Constructed from a shiny aluminium alloy with rounded edges, it’s both sturdy and stylish while thin enough to be easily pocketable.
The Optio T-20 lacks image stabilisation, but the new ISO-800 produces usable results and while it’s not much of a step up from the Option T-10, it costs considerably less than the T-10 did when we reviewed it – making it a much better value proposition.”
