Nikon Coolpix S10 Reviews
Amazon.com Nikon Coolpix S10 Review
The swivel makes it! Canon may have slightly better software and there are smaller models in the same performance/price range but the swivel provides a POV that is both very unique and very useful. Added to very good picture quality (unlikemany of the super small models) and you have a great little camera.
Jeff Keller Nikon Coolpix S10 Review
The Coolpix S10 ($400) is the latest swivel-body digital camera from Nikon. It's the followup to the lackluster (in my opinion) Coolpix S4, which wasn't nearly as impressive as the original Coolpix 900-series cameras that came before it.
Nikon Coolpix S10 Concise Review, Simon Joinson
Announced in August, the Coolpix S10 is the latest incarnation of Nikon's 'twisting body' camera design that can be traced all the way back to the original Coolpix 900 in 1998, though - like the S4 before it - this one manages to squeeze in a big 10x optical zoom.
CNet Nikon Coolpix S10 Review
The bottom line: Nikon's S10 has some decent features, including a really nice lens, but it doesn't live up to its potential and can't compete with similarly priced superzooms.
Mike Paini Nikon Coolpix S10 Review
The Nikon Coolpix S10 is an update to the company's existing Coolpix S4 model, adding a couple of very useful features.

This is one of my favorite photos. While I was at work and Mom was sleeping, Danni decided she'd be like Daddy and take a few snapshots around the house (yes, there was one of mom sleeping). I just love this picture!

Washington Monument 1
I took several pictures of the Washington Monument, and not many turned out well. There isn't much to work with when it comes to the Monument.

Canon EOS 400D/Rebel XTi Reviews
Amazon.com Canon EOS 400D/Rebel XTi Review
The new Digital Rebel XTi camera should appeal to a wide variety of users: those wishing to upgrade from a point & shoot digital, or those wishing to improve upon their first generation digital SLRs. Features and value make this a 5-star camera, but it won't be everyone's cup of tea.
CNet Canon EOS Rebel XTi review
The bottom line: The Canon EOS Rebel XTi remains a very good first dSLR, but ultimately a disappointing followup to the XT, which cedes its lead to the Nikon D80.
Gordon Lang of Camera Labs' Canon 400D/EOS Rebel XTi review
The Canon EOS 400D / Rebel XTi digital SLR is the successor to the best-selling EOS 350D / Rebel XT. Announced in August 2006, it combines a number of anticipated improvements along with a few genuine surprises.
Digital Photography Review-Canon 400D/EOS Rebel XTi review
The headline changes are another two megapixel step up (to ten megapixels), the nine-point AF sensor from the EOS 30D, a new dust removal system which includes anti-static surface coatings, low-pass filter vibration and software based dust pattern removal.
Steves Digicams-Canon 400D/EOS Rebel XTi review
The third generation Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi SLR takes everything found in its predecessors and improves the resolution to 10.1-megapixels, provides a more responsive 9-point AF system, adds a large 2 1/2-inch LCD monitor, and incorporates the Picture Style image processing controls first introduced on the Canon EOS-1D Mark II N and 5D.
Digital Camera Resource Page Canon 400D/EOS Rebel XTi review
The Digital Rebel XTi is the long-awaited upgrade to Canon's very successful Digital Rebel XT (see our review). Like the XT before it, the Rebel XTi (known as the EOS-400D in some countries) is an entry-level digital SLR, but that doesn't mean that it's "stripped". The camera has nearly all the bells and whistles that you'll find on its more expensive siblings. The Rebel XTi is priced at $799 for the body only kit, and $899 with an 18 - 55 mm lens.

Nikon D40 Review
Amazon.com Nikon D40 Reviews
Unless you are a sport journalist, I don't think you can go wrong with this camera.
Phil Askey Nikon D40 Review
The Nikon D40 is an all new affordable, compact, point-and-shoot digital SLR from Nikon, it follows on from the D50 but at a significantly lower price point and with a subtly different feature set. The biggest news however is probably fact that Nikon resisted the temptation to keep chasing megapixels (hooray for that) and instead appear to have concentrated on what makes a good camera, a decent viewfinder, short shutter lag, very short viewfinder blackout. They've trimmed some of the 'less important features' (you can't change the exposure steps for example) but have squeezed a range of new features such as custom Auto ISO which we welcomed with the D80.
Jeff Keller Nikon D40 Review
The D40 is Nikon's new entry-level digital SLR. Priced at just $599 with an 18 - 55 mm lens, the D40 is one of the lowest priced SLRs on the market. Nikon didn't cut a lot of corners to keep the price down, either -- this is a very capable camera. It has a 6 Megapixel CCD, a large and sharp 2.5" LCD display, full manual controls, an elaborate help system, and the kind of performance that you'd expect from a D-SLR. Did I mention that it's also very compact?
Dave Etchells and Shawn Barnett Nikon D40 Review
If you've been sitting on the sidelines, waiting until you could afford a real Nikon DSLR, your time have come at last.
CNet Nikon D40 Review
The bottom line: The Nikon D40 is a great transition camera for going from point-and-shoot to your first dSLR.
Nikon D80 Reviews
Amazon.com Nikon D80 Review
The Nikon D80, destined to replace the popular D70 series, is a great camera for Nikon fans who wish to upgrade from their D50s, 70s or 100s. It's also attractive enough to maybe get a few people to jump ship!
Ken Rockwell Nikon D80 Review
My D80 is as small and light as my D70 with the same sensor as my D200. Whoo hoo!
Time marches on, and the D40 came out at the end of 2006 at half the price of the D80. The D40 is even smaller and lighter, with the same perfectly good image quality as my D70, so for me, I prefer my D40 for the great majority of times I don't feel like hauling my D200. I bought my D80 for portability, and my D40 is even smaller.
Phil Askey Nikon D80 Review
The D80 slots nicely between the entry-level D50 and the semi-professional / professional D200, clearly based on the D70 design but also different enough to be seen as a completely new model.
CNet Nikon D80 Review
The bottom line: Nikon scores big with the D80, its new 10-megapixel, sub-$1,000 dSLR.
Jeff Keller Nikon D80 Review
The Nikon D80 is the long-awaited replacement the the best-selling D70 and D70s digital SLRs. It's basically a D200 with a slightly different CCD sensor (though still 10 Megapixel) and a slower burst rate. And at $999 for the body only and $1299 with the new 18 - 135 mm lens, it's also substantially cheaper than the D200.
Dave Etchells and Shawn Barnett Nikon D80 Review
The new Nikon D80's combination of high-end features and its 18-135mm DX kit lens make a killer photographic tool for the amateur and intermediate photographer who can't afford or justify the extra cost of the Nikon D200.
