Nikon D3 and Sony Alpha DSLR-A900 Review by The Online Photographer

Review (Summary): "... There are a lot of ways in which the D3 is superior to the A900: it's clearly quieter, and the mirror blackout is much shorter, and the camera as a whole is faster, crisper, more responsive (although the A900 is by no means bad). It's also bigger and heavier, and I don't like the user interface as much. Of course, those are things you get used to. ..

Casio EXILIM EX-FH20 Review by Photography Blog

Review (Summary): "... Dig beneath the surface and you'll quickly find the real selling-point of the EX-FH20 - its incredible continuous shooting rate of up to 40fps for still images and 1000fps for video.

Pentax smc FA 50mm F1.4 Lens Review by DPReview

Review (Summary): "The 50mm F1.4 features a traditional design of 7 elements in 6 groups, with all of the lens surfaces spherical in profile.

Panasonic LUMIX DMC-G1 Review by Digital Camera Info

Review (Summary): "Panasonic is first out of the gate with a product based on the Micro Four Thirds format, the intriguing Lumix G1. This 12-megapixel camera just started shipping, priced at $800 with a 14-45mm lens (equivalent to 28-90mm on a 35mm camera). It became clear a few months ago, when we shot with a pre-production G1 at the Photokina trade show, that Panasonic had indeed cleared the most important hurdle to making Micro Four Thirds work: the auto focus system is plenty fast enough for most shooting situations. ...
