About Us
Digital Cameras and camcorders are my favorites when it comes to electronic gadgets. The primary reason behind making this blog was to inform people about the various cameras and camcorders coming in to the market. There are people looking to buy one but don't know which one is the best. There are people who don't even know the basics of these two devices but still want to buy one. This blog was started in order to guide people with their digital shopping. I have created this blog with both kinds of people in mind: the people who don't know anything about cameras and are looking to know more about it and for people who are advanced users and want to browse through various cameras in the market. I have reviewed products of all big brands like Kodak, Sony, Fujifilm, Olympus, Canon, etc.
We intentionally keep the review short so that we cover just the important aspects of the device and don't mention anything that is not relevant. We focus more on the performance and build quality/design of the products. Along with this, there are technical specifications provided if you are in a real hurry and don't want to read the entire review. Our reviews are quite compact and this is what makes my blog different from the others. We have seen long and boring reviews on the Internet and we certainly didn't want to be one of them. Check out my blog and get back to us if you have any feedback or suggestions.

Review of Nikon D7000
When I think of mid-to-high-end dSLRs, my mind gets confused. I don’t want a camera that is packed with various whizzy new features, insane burst rates, or bold redesigns. Recently I got my hand over the Nikon D7000 and it was close enough to deliver the photographic tinglies in my expected way. It is definitely not the best camera for everyone; also it is best at doing everything. However, this latest dSLR has a unique combination of feature set, design, photo quality and performance at a price that is hard to beat.
Nikon D7000 has entered the market as a huge competition for the Olympus E5, Canon EOS 60D and 7D and Pentax K-7. The camera has a rigid shape and is packed with 16.2 mega pixels digital leviathan. The digital SLR has extended its mid-range appeal through [...]

Casio Exilim EX-TR100 – Style-Over-Substance
The Casio Exilim EX-TR100 boasts an unusual metal body, which also is known as “Tryx”. The body of the camera looks more like a smartphone than a compact camera.
The Exilim EX-TR100 measures 15 mm wide and boasts a 3 in touch-sensitive display screen. The camera only has two physical buttons in the form of shutter and power buttons.
The body of the camera sits with the metal external surface of the camera which can easily be flipped externally and can also be rotated in a complete circle. This doesn’t only mean that you will be able to use the camera in almost uncountable positioned, but at the same time it means that the metal frame of the camera will be used as a grip for reducing the blurring in the shots when shooting form hand. The metal frame of the camera was also pretty [...]

Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX1 – Nicely Designed
We’ll be honest with you and say that we liked the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3 pretty much, for what it is: a camera which boasts shooting speed and photo quality, which the beginner photography enthusiasts coming from point-and-shoot want. And all that in a significantly smaller body in comparison to dSLR and along with a user interface which is familiar to the users. But when the camera actually entered the market, we heard a lot of buyers upset about it as they were looking for an actual heir in the GF series. The aspiring customers where bothered about the slightly bigger size of the camera in replace of a hot shoe and physical mode dial.
Well, it seems as if Panasonic heard all those peevishness as well or may be this was always their primary plan. Whatever would have been the case, the [...]

Fujifilm FinePix XP20 – Basic Tough Camera
Almost every major camera manufacturer has one tough camera in their lineup and Fujifilm has two. The Fujifilm FinePix XP20 that we are reviewing today is one of them, with the Fujifilm FinePix XP30 being the other. These rugged cameras not only are waterproof, but also are dustproof, shockproof, freezeproof and up to some extent they even are crushproof. The only major difference between the XP20 and XP30 is the GPS receiver, which is present in XP30, and absent in XP20. But apart from that both the cameras have been tested to withstand depth of 16 feet underwater for around 2 hrs; temperatures as low as 14 degrees Fahrenheit and drop from 4.9 ft.
The best thing about these rugged cameras is that all that protection for your camera comes pretty cheap, while in general you don’t get rugged [...]

Canon PowerShot Elph 510 HS – A Splendid Little Camera
The Canon PowerShot Elph 510 HS is an update to Canon's SD4500 IS, and boosts the resolution for the rear-end illuminated CMOS sensor to 12 MP; brings 3.2 in high-resolution LCD touchscreen instead of the previous 3 in LCD; gets a 28 mm wide-angle lens having 12x zoom instead of a 10x zoom; and also brings plethora of other shooting lineaments. But the best thing here is that all this comes in a body which is less than an inch thick.
The PowerShot Elph 510 HS brings everything that your smartphone camera doesn’t and the best thing is that all that comes in a very small body. So, we’d say that the PowerShot Elph 510 HS is a splendid little camera.
Design and Controls:
The overall build of the Canon PowerShot Elph 510 HS is pretty decent enclosing a huge [...]

Nikon V1 – Nikon’s CSC
The Compact System Camera or the “CSC” market is the latest and the fastest booming market in the digital camera world and almost every manufacturer has made their presence felt with their camera. The latest and probably the latest entrant in that market is Nikon. But before we move any further it’s important to let you now what exactly a CSC camera is. Basically CSC camera is no exceptional camera; it’s just a regular compact camera with the lens swapping ability like digital SLR cameras. We’ve already seen such cameras from Panasonic, Olympus, Samsung, Pentax and Sony and now we have the Nikon V1.
The recently launched Nikon V1 that we’re reviewing here basically is company’s flagship model in the new CSC market, this is the reason why Nikon has christened [...]

Fujifilm X10 – A Low-Priced, Heavyset Camera
We always wanted a camera that will turn heads and will make your hear run faster. The all new Fujifilm X10 from Fujifilm is a brand new compact customer oriented 12 MP cameras, and it is the successor of Fuji’s nicely-accepted Fujifilm X100, which was affordable, but not attractively designed variant of the Leica X1. Now, the X10 might be less priced that its precursor, but the good thing here is that there hasn’t been any compromised done here. The X10 gives a rock-solid feel in hand and the retro styling of the camera, which makes it look like a classic 35 millimeter film camera is an utter old flame. So, in simple terms you can call the Fujifilm X10, the X100 Jr.
While, the size of the X10 is pretty much like the compact cameras on which you can easily change the lens, the brilliant [...]
