Waterproof, shockproof, dustproof, and freezeproof, the Panasonic Lumix TS2 is built to stand up to the elements and rigors of the real world, and it takes a pretty good picture, too. Enhanced with Panasonic’s new Power O.I.S. image stabilization, the Lumix TS2 makes a great waterproof digital camera design even better. The Panasonic TS2 has a wide-angle 4.6x zoom lens that ranges from 28-128mm, a 2.7-inch LCD, a 14.1-megapixel sensor, and a body that’s built to take a beating. New redundant locks on the Panasonic TS2’s doors reduce the likelihood that you’ll open them accidentally,… (read more) With a 30-300mm equivalent lens and a slick design, Nikon’s Coolpix S8000 looks like a capable offering in the pocket long zoom digital camera category. Though not quite as wide as most digital cameras, the Nikon S8000’s zoom certainly has what it takes at the telephoto end. Its 14-megapixel sensor offers fairly high resolution for a pocket camera, and the Nikon Coolpix S8000’s high-res, 3-inch wide-view LCD gives a hint of that resolution with a crisp, clear 921,600-dot array.

Part of this lineup included the subject of today’s lens review, the 35mm f/1.4G . Can the legacy of Minolta glass keep up with Sony’s digital camera bodies?

With the Fujifilm FinePix HS10 you can capture everything from beautiful interiors and landscapes to fine details on the top of cathedrals, or else small animals at the zoo. Its 10-megapixel BSI sensor makes the Fujifilm HS10 more sensitive in low light, and its special scene modes make taking pictures in low light and even among crowds that much easier. The Fujifilm HS10’s manual zoom lets you zero in on your target quickly, and its articulating LCD helps you capture from high or low. The Fujifilm HS10 is especially handy to have along at the zoo, getting closer views… (read more) Teens Explore Photography, Creative Writing and Self Expression in End of Year Exhibition MELVILLE, NY (July 12, 2010) – In support of the Whitney Museum of American Art’s Youth Insights Education Program, photos taken by students using Nikon D-SLR cameras are now available for viewing in an online exhibition ( http://whitney.org/Education/Teens/Gallery/2010InterpretingWar ). MT::PB Youth Insights is a semester-long course for New York City teens to learn about photography that was taught by Nikon photographer Nina Berman. Through Berman, Nikon loaned Youth Insights fifteen Nikon D5000 cameras to students in the program, enabling students to transition from point-and-shoot cameras to entry-level D-SLRs. Berman taught the amateur photographers about aperture, depth of field and other elements of photography and helped them create their final project focused on capturing the meaning of war through photography and writing. “Nikon was excited to provide the Youth Insights program with Nikon D-SLR’s to support aspiring student photographers,” said Lucy Pellegrino, Sr. Strategic Marketing Manager, Nikon Inc. “This Whitney Museum project was a great way to give first-time photographers an opportunity to learn from a professional and express their point-of-view through words and imagery.” Students wrote stories, essays and poetry to complement their photographs and their work was celebrated the Youth Insights Spring Celebration at for an audience of more than eighty people, including family, friends, teachers and artists. “When I first heard we were getting Nikon cameras, I thought, oh, this is a great opportunity. I had never used a SLR camera, although I had seen them around,” said Troy Cordice, 17, Bronx High School for Visual Art. “I thought it was the same thing as a digital camera, but it’s completely different. You can control everything and that’s a great opportunity I’m fortunate enough to have had.” Student images included both literal and conceptual interpretations of war. The Youth Insights exhibit will be available for viewing online indefinitely. Share: ? More information: Click here to read full press release ?

Press Contact: MWW Group Devin Davis | E: ddavis@mww.com | T: 201.806.3135 One of the smaller pocket long zooms is the 8x lens found in the Panasonic FH20 digital camera. It’s not only wide, starting at 28mm equivalent, it zooms in to a pretty impressive 224mm at telephoto. Panasonic’s optical image stabilization helps keep the Lumix FH20’s shots steady, and the 2.7-inch LCD looks pretty good in most lighting situations. Other than that, the Panasonic FH20 is a simple, well-designed digital camera with all the basics. Click here for more on the Panasonic FH20!

Intelligent Sweep Panorama tops the list of hot features on the Sony TX7: All you have to do is press the button and sweep the camera across what you want to capture and the camera stitches it all together for you in a few seconds. Capturing 10-frames per second is also impressive, as is combining six images into one for lower noise in low-light situations.

It’s a low-priced tip of the hat to those who like digital cameras that shoot telephoto rather than wide-angle. Sweep Panorama is included in the Sony W370, as is 720p HD video and smile shutter functionality. But does the Sony W370 manage to exceed the imaging abilities of its lower priced siblings, the Sony W330 and W350?
