Digital Camera Review

The fact that cameras can be compact andSLRs, most of us already know. Compact ones are easy to use, fit into a swimming trunks pocket and look more like a stylish lighter than a miracle of modern technology. However, with them you are unlikely to be able to beautifully blur the background, play with the lighting of the frame and just feel like a cool photographer. All this will give you the so-called "SLRs", but they will not fit in a matchbox size. We included both in our review so that when you are going on vacation, you have something to choose from.Digital Camera ReviewPhoto: DPReview.comNikon: all grown-up. Nikon's SLR cameras are well known, and the cohort of photographers who call themselves “Nikonists” is very large. If you want to join the clan of professional photographers and, like the heroine of the movie “Vicky, Cristina, Barcelona” proudly show your friends pictures of your smoking girlfriends in black and white, you can look at the Nikon D5000. “Mirror” has been serving for many years, and you can improve your skills and quality of photos with interchangeable lenses.

And they decided to break this vicious circle and create a class of compact cameras with removable lenses. The fact is that interchangeable lenses have so far been the privilege of exclusively mirror models, and it is the use of the correct lens for each shooting that has made the pictures so high-quality. The pioneer of this series is the Panasonic G1. While Panasonic engineers failed to achieve the size of a matchbox, the idea to combine quality and convenience will be developed in the next model line.

According to user reviews, it has a very good screen quality, ergonomic button layout and a clear interface. Despite the small size of the lens, it takes very clear and high-quality photos and videos. The camera looks more like an elegant toy. Even at the highest ISO values (sensitivity of the matrix to light), digital noise is extremely insignificant, and the battery "takes" up to 700 shots, about a third of which are with flash.

Now Sony is developing two directions in parallel: separately zoom (the company has models with 15x optical zoom - you can photograph the cubes on the handsome man's stomach), separately compact. The Sony Cyber-shot DSC T500 model has a five-fold zoom, but the lens does not extend, and therefore, with any settings, the camera will retain the shape of a pack of cigarettes.
