Olympus TOUGH TG-1: Tough but not rough
The trouble with a lot of our precious gadgets is that they’re just that – rather fragile, expensive and a worry when we take them out into the great outdoors. But a camera is supposed to be taken out and about, so what do you do if you want to…
Sun Sniper Pro Camera Strap review

Pentax K-01: Interchangeable lens camera
The latest interchangeable lens camera from Pentax is certainly a bit of a head-turner. The black-and-yellow body certainly sets it apart from the usual Pentax design – and that’s all down to the vision of Australian industrial designer Marc Newson. It has a 16-megapixel sensor and also offers support for K-mount…
Canon EOS 5D makes its Mark (III)
Canon has just added a 22.3 megapixel camera to its famous EOS range. The EOS 5D Mark III has been some time in coming and rumours about what it would offer have been bandied about for a while. The EOS 5D Mark III builds on the performance of the Mark…
Vtec iPhone camera lens cases

IXUS 510 HS and 240 HS: Canon taking advantage of Apple’s domination
When a new camera comes on to the market, it’s a bit like when another car makes its way onto the pages of AutoTrader, there’s so many of them available you don’t really notice it. This is why advertising publications such as AutoTrader offer ‘boxed ads’, with the presumption that…
Swann Freestyle HD: The all-action video camera
As any would-be director will tell you, camcorders are great when it comes to recording footage, but you have to be careful where you take them. Expensive bits of kit at the best of times, they are so delicate and easy to break that one slip can see hundreds of pounds go…
The best cameras at CES
Wi-Fi, zoom lenses on compact cameras, and powerful full-frame DSLRs with impressive specs and big price tags were all on the menu for photography fans at CES 2012. Fuji announced the X-Pro1 – its new 16-megapixel camera with APS-C X-Trans sensor. This is a mirrorless camera, but Fujifilm claims its…
Photography Related Christmas Gifts

Panasonic’s small wonder – the DMC-3D1
Compressed twin lenses are the secret behind Panasonic’s announcement that it has produced the smallest 3D compact camera ever. The Japanese corporation has just announced the DMC-3D1, which is expected to be on sale in the UK in December and which offers both 3D photo capabilities, along with 3D video…
Go Pro HD Hero2: An action-packed sequel
How do you sequel one of the toughest, ruggedest cameras on the market? With the HD Hero2 Camera, GoPro decided to just double everything – power, resolution and field-of-width (well, it’s a bit wider, but not double). The new Hero 2 uses a better camera sensor and a twice-as-powerful processor…
