This review is from: Nikon Coolpix S630 12MP Digital Camera with 7x Optical Vibration Reduction (VR) Zoom and 2.7 inch LCD (Ruby Red)I have been a dedicated Nikon 35mm fan for years, but this is my first Nikon digital camera. I did debate very long between the SLR series and the Coolpix line, but in the end, the compact design and the lighter weight of the Coolpix nudged me in that direction. So far, I am not disappointed.The menu structure is different from the Olympus menu system I had become used to, but a short session with the Nikon owner's manual quickly showed me how to access all the functions. Perhaps it is because I had used another band of digital camera for the last few years, I did not originally find the Nikon menu quite as intuitive. I had no trouble changing over however, after less than an hour or so.The Coolpix is clearly designed as a point and shoot digital camera. Personally, I favor more of a wide angle style than what this camera delivers, but the zoom range is quite nice and very useable. Automatic modes are the default for everything. In my initial testing, I found very few photos that were not acceptable using the fully auto everything. Excellent optics and a vibration compensation system yielded very crisp hand held images. Good marks for this area.While there is no full manual operation for the S630, there are shooting modes galore that will provide settings to isolate the subject from the background using larger apertures (portrait modes) or favor smaller apertures for greater depth of field when photographing scenic views. There is even an extreme close up mode, similar to the macro mode of many 35mm cameras. Other overrides will allow you to modify the flash effects (fill in, red eye reduction, off and others), fire bursts of shots (depending on exposure up to several per second), set automatic intervals (pre-determined) or even some in camera creative effects. While it did take some getting used to the controls, the S630 again took high marks in this area.One of the features I really like about the Coolpix S series in general is the large, compared to my older digital camera, viewing screen. I was even more pleased to find I could superimpose a small grid as an aid in composition. I was trained on a 4x5 view camera and had a grid screen for my old Nikon F2S, so this was like coming home for me. I would have liked some intermediate lines in addition to the three by three box pattern, but even this simple implementation will prove useful.The S630 uses an exclusive rechargeable battery. I suggest buying at least one spare battery with your camera. While the battery is rated at well over 200 exposures before needing to be recharged, I'm sure Mr. Murphy will be at the party you are photographing and your battery will die, just as you are about to snap that great celebrity photo you dreamed about taking. The S630 makes the external charger as part of your purchase package and an AC cord is an option. If you like being able to run on standard batteries, this may be less than desirable for you, but I like the rechargeable feature from an environmental standpoint. Call this an even trade.I was disappointed in the lack of an uncompressed format to save images in. My last digital camera had a RAW format that while not used for every photograph nonetheless was used often enough I miss not having it. You do have some selection in the JPEG compression, however, so I have to be content with that. Your photos do look their best using the maximum pixel count, so you will want a high capacity card. I urge you to get at least a 4 GB card to supplement the minimal onboard memory.Now we come to my only real dissatisfaction with the S630, and that has little to do with the camera itself. I hate the software suite Nikon supplies. I must digress a moment here. If you use a high capacity SD card, one that is 4 GB or more, you may not be able to read the card with the card reader built into your computer. While technically still an SD card, the SDHC series cards use some internal difference to break the 2 GB barrier. Whatever the reason, you should purchase an external reader capable of handling the SDHC format cards.Without an external card reader, you need to plug the camera into your computer and use the Nikon Transfer software to transfer the images to your computer. While the plug fitting on the camera looks like a mini-USB, I could not get a mini-USB cable I already owned to fit the socket. I needed to use the Nikon supplied cable. My computer would not recognize the camera until I loaded the software. The transfer process is slow and the interface ...

Length:: 3:26 MinsMy main use for this camera is Surveillance. Let me explain....I use this camera to scope out my back yard during the night. Within the included software, you can set the Motion Sensor to capture people, objects or anything else that moves. When the object or person crosses within the field of vision of the camera, it will automatically start recording onto your computer. Now, I suggest using a motion censor light to brighten the area you would like to view because the Auto Bright setting on the camera is just ok. The camera does not see in the dark well if not at all.Now thats my personal use. Obviously you can use this camera to chat with friends, or post videos on youtube. I use this camera for so many different things its amazing!

This review is from: Logitech QuickCam Orbit AFThis is a fantastic webcam with a great set of software tools. I use it for conference calls where we share whiteboards and the picture quality is fantastic. Also Skype allows you to do high-def video calls with this camera. Highly recommended with very good price / quality ratio!

This review is from: Logitech QuickCam Orbit AFThis camera provides a very good picture but mounting it is a challenge. It doesn't sit on top of a flat screen monitor and if you use the pedestal you have to put it up on a 12" stand in order for it to be in front of you. The only other choice is to have it off to the side, but then your guest thinks you're being rude by not looking at them. It's like when the news anchor is looking at the wrong camera.

Sony Alpha A560/L 14.2 Megapixels Digital SLR Camera and 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 Lens with Sony SAL552002 5


Sony Alpha A560 14.2 Megapixels Digital SLR Camera and 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 Lens

Sony 55-200mm f/4-5.6 SAM DT Telephoto Zoom Lens for Sony Alpha Digital SLR Cameras



This review is from: Sony Alpha A560/L 14.2 Megapixels Digital SLR Camera and 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 Lens with Sony SAL552002 55-200mm f/4-5.6 SAM DT Telephoto Zoom LensWith this camera, Sony has come to maturity in the prosumer space. I own an a100 and an a300 (the a100 I already gave to my daughter who's also getting into photography). Now for some reason, Sony is not selling a580 in the Philippines so I had to get this from Amazon. But anyway, I only had to spend about a day with this camera to say that it's worth the $$ that I spent. So now what do I like about this product:- much lighter and quieter than the a300- shoots faster- the power switch is now conveniently located at the shoot button so no need to take your eyes off your subject when you realized you haven't turned on the camera yet- more megapix... not that you really need more but it's just nice to have- bigger LCD screen- now shoots movie and panoramic shotsAlright so maybe some might be asking why I didn't go for a33 or the a55. Well, I do studio shoots too and if you're familiar with studio setups you know that live views either through the LCD or the electronic viewfinder do not work well.

This review is from: Sony Alpha A560/L 14.2 Megapixels Digital SLR Camera and 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 Lens with Sony SAL552002 55-200mm f/4-5.6 SAM DT Telephoto Zoom LensThe camera is awesome, now I know why is one of the best entry-level DSLRs. I like the accessories, all except the remote shutter... IT DOESN'T WORK WITH THIS CAMERA and they still include it in the kit. Nikon D3100 DOES NOT support wireless remote shutters.The product quality is excellent, but eventhough Sunset Electronics have a good customer service, there's a high probability of having some kind of issue with your order.

This review is from: Insignia - 1.8\" LCD Digital Photo Key Chain - RedI received this as a thank you gift. I love it and it works beautifully. Like the other review above, there were a couple of glitches. I, too, could not find the directions initially as the instructions were in Spanish. However, I found the instructions online and they were simple enough to follow. I had made up a folder of the pictures I wanted to upload so it was easy to select them. I ran the program and it did crash on me once in the middle of the upload. However, I was trying to upload 40+ pictures at the time so maybe the files were too large. I did not need to unplug the device, I simply started over again and it picked up from where I left off. The device knew which pictures had already been uploaded. I have been successful with it thus far and quite happy. I've had it now for six months. Everyone who sees it wants one too and I can't say I would tell them not to consider purchasing it. The only little peeve I have is that the pictures take a bit longer than I would like as it scrolls through. I haven't checked to see if there is a setting to change this. Seeing all the adorable pictures of family and friends and having the capability of having it with me all of the time is wonderful. I would recommend this photo keychain....

This review is from: Insignia - 1.8\" LCD Digital Photo Key Chain - RedI bought this as a mother's day gift with the plan to load up pictures of our adorable kids and give it to my mom as a gift, but that plan was dashed as soon as I started using this. The first problem was that I received two copies of the spanish instructions and zero copies of the english instructions. I was able to download english instructions and it seems very easy: plug it in, install the software, copy pictures, enjoy. I was able to plug it in, but that's when things went downhill. It doesn't actually install software, it simply runs a program that is stored on the device itself. It worked great the first time, and I copied one picture and unplugged it to make sure it worked. The second time however, it did not work. The only way I could start the program was to go to the DOS prompt and start it there. Once started, it would copy a few pictures, and then it would give me some error message and I would have to remove it, plug it back in, go back to the dos prompt and start over. This happened a few times until finally the device simply stopped working. Now it just shows a green screen. After fighting with it for an hour, I'm giving up and taking it back....

Coaxial Cable - cable nails, cat5


People have mentioned you get 50 of these for the price of 100 of a different brand and they are all rg-6 clips so why bother with this, right? Well turns out the philips clips have some advantages.



First, not all RG-6 is the same OD, like the quad foil shield rg-6 heavy duty. It turns out the Philips are more generously sized for larger rg-6 cables.



Also the plastic on the philips is a heavier grade (made with less regrind for those of you who know about injection molding) - all that means is it is less likely to crack



Finally the philips nail is a larger diameter and really grips into whatever you smack it on.



These quality issues make the 50 pack of better clips a good deal for me even when the 100 pack of the the thinner plastic/nail and smaller inside diameter product is also available. Both will do the job, but these won't come undone! Philips SWV2090W/27 Coaxial RG6 Nail-In Clips (50 Pack, White)

First off, these nail-in clips are wonderful; however, it's a shame that I didn't search further otherwise I would have gotten these instead (Cable-Clip White RG6 (100 pieces per bag)).



Pro(s):

- Pretty good quality (plastic and nails didn't break on any of them)

- Easy to use (nails came pre-installed with the plastic, just place and hammer away)



Con(s):

- Price



Recommendation(s)/Suggestion(s):

- If you're placing these outdoor, keep them out of the sun (long term exposure to the sun will cause the plastic to fade and turn brittle)



These really do the job at tucking coaxial cables nicely!

These Nail-In clips are a perfect for securing coax cable against a wall. What I was impressed with, was that the nails come pre-installed in the clips -- making it very easy to bang them into the wall. - Cable Nails - Cat5 - Coax - 50 Ft'

This review is from: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP1 12.1 MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.7-Inch LCD (Red)I had a Konica Minolta Dimage X60 for the longest time and wanted a replacement now, my old camera was 5 years old and became slower and slower.I tried 3 other cameras (Samsung, Nikon and Olympus) but had to send them back.... but the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP1 (I didn't want the FP-3, I don't like touchscreens) is beyond my expectations.The battery life is outstanding, I love that you don't have the lens coming out while zooming (was used to the inside lens from the Konica), the colors are really natural, the screen is crystal clear, the operation is so easy, the camera is very light and compact.... what else can I say :)I'm finally satisfied!!!!Oh there is one small con.... the camera takes HD videos (my old camera only took VGA) but you have to zoom in or focus before you start recording... after you hit the recording button you can't zoom in anymore. However the quality of the video is awesome!! 4 stars from me... I'm really happy... if I could zoom in while taking a video I would give the camera 5 stars. However I did some research and not many cameras can zoom in while taking HD videos, so all good ;)Battery life and picture quality is what matters most to me!!!

This review is from: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP1 12.1 MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.7-Inch LCD (Red)We intially purchased this camera for our kids but have taken it over. The lithium battery makes a great difference in the camera always being ready to shoot. The on/off design is very practical as well. This model recieved a very good rating from Consumer Reports. Our photos clarity - both flash & daylight- have been better than anticipated. Only drawback for the adults is that there is no 'viewer' but the screen is good sized. Please note that the 'red' camera colour has a distinct pinkish hue.

This review is from: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP1 12.1 MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.7-Inch LCD (Red)I bought this camera as a present for my wife. I tested it and compared it to other digital cameras. Then, I returned this camera, and bought my wife the Canon SD1300 IS instead because it is clearly a superior camera that costs only a little more.I compared the Panasonic Lumix DMC FP1, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH1, the Canon Powershot S500 (my 8 year old malfunctioning digital camera), the Canon Powershot SD1300 IS, and my Canon Rebel T1i (my dSLR...an unfair comparison, but I wanted benchmark for these cheaper cameras). I had always liked my old Canon S500, but I read some reviews on Amazon and other websites, and it seemed like the Panasonic cameras were really good cameras at a great price.For me, the number one consideration is picture quality. If you don't have that, you don't have anything. Things that detract from picture quality are poor signal to noise, lack of sharpness, poor color rendering, and various artifacts. Therefore, I tested these 5 cameras under different conditions. I copied the jpegs onto my computer, and I looked at the images at 100% to see how good they really are. The most revealing results were shot under medium light indoors. This is very important if you ever want to take any indoor pictures. The results were as follows (from best to worst):1) Canon T1i (1 year old, about $700), excellent pictures even without flash2) Canon SD1300 IS (brand new, about $110), very good photos for a compact digital camera3) Canon S500 (8 years old, $400 new, not performing as well as it used to)Surprisingly, although this is not shooting as well as it used to 8 years ago, it still outperformed the Panasonic cameras.4) Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH1 (brand new, about $90), this had very poor signal to noise and moderately poor color rendering.5) Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP1 (brand new, about $80), this camera performed significantly worse even than the FH1. The non extending lens is nifty but yields poor photos.In addition to this, I found that the Canon was easier to operate and easier to take videos.Nowadays, compact digital cameras are quite inexpensive. Do yourself a favor and buy a high quality camera. More megapixels does NOT necessarily mean better pictures, and having a large optical zoom can sometimes compromise lens quality and thus picture quality. Also, consider sensor size: this can make a big difference in picture quality, th...

This review is from: Nikon D300s 12.3MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera with AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II LensI've had the E-620 for a few weeks now and am quite pleased. Other options I considered were the Nikon D5000, Canon T1i & XSi, Panasonic G1, Sony A300 & A350, and Pentax K200D & K20D. Some comments with comparison notes:1) SIZE & WEIGHT -- There's no point in having a camera that is so bulky that it doesn't get much use. Only the Panasonic G1 is smaller than the E-620 but not by much. There is a more dramatic difference in the size of the lenses, with Olympus being much smaller than all but Panasonic. Makes for a very compact outfit. For anyone used to the size of film SLRs, the E-620 is very similar. My wife also found it the most comfortable for her to hold.2) BUILD QUALITY & HANDLING -- Very impressed with Olympus here. Solid, dense and with lots of sensibly placed buttons for direct access to settings. The other cameras had a less solid, plasticy feel, and their larger grips still weren't large enough for a comfortable pistol grip with my average size hands. The Sonys, in particular, had awkward button placement. The E-620 has a different style of grip where you hold the camera in the same way as old film SLRs, and is more appropriate to such a small camera. I carry the camera comfortably in my *left* hand, grasping the body and lens barrel with my fingers on the zoom ring; this frees my right hand from having to support the camera while working controls, and leaves my good hand open (I'm a righty).3) LENSES -- The kit zooms from Olympus are reputed to be of higher quality than the others, as well as being more compact. So far I have been very impressed. I didn't want to buy a camera only to feel the kit lenses needed replacing; I'd rather spend on lenses that offer new capabilities, like fast primes or dedicated macro lenses. For anyone interesting in using legacy manual focus lenses, inexpensive adapters are available to attach virtually any MF SLR lens to Olympus bodies; used lenses can be quite inexpensive on eBay. Panasonic is limited by a very small range of lenses. For a two lens kit, the E-620 was the cheapest option.4) IMAGE QUALITY -- I wanted to spend my time taking pictures, not fiddling with them in post-processing; Olympus has the best out-of-camera JPGs of the bunch (Canon and Pentax, in particular, fall short here). Although the smaller Olympus sensors are reputed to be a bit noisier, what noise there is is primarily luminance noise, giving images a film-like grain, rather than the colored blotches of chroma noise. I've found noise very well controlled through ISO1000, even with noise reduction set to LOW. For printing up through 8x10 and monitor display, I don't think noise is a concern up through ISO1600 (certainly with noise reduction set to standard). One caveat: be sure to keep gradation set at NORMAL (the default), not AUTO, unless you really need it; using AUTO gradation will noticeably increase noise.5) IN BODY STABILIZATION -- I prefer in body stabilization to lens-based stabilization for two reasons: in body works with all lenses, and lenses can be more compact. You only carry one body but you are likely to carry multiple lenses, so it pays to keep them small.6) LIVE VIEW & LCD -- Olympus has the best live view implementation (maybe tied with Sony) with quite quick autofocus. This is very important if you want anyone, e.g. my wife or random bystanders, who's used to compact cameras to use your SLR for snapshots or the like. The tilt & swivel LCD is very handy and seemed more natural than Nikon or Sony's implementations.Overall, I found the E-620 to be the best value for a two lens kit.Here are a few notes on the other cameras I considered:Nikon D5000 -- Good build & handling, but a bit bulky. Live view isn't great. Much more expensive for a two lens kit than the Olympus.Canon T1i -- Not impressed by the build quality, felt plasticy. Not comfortable for me to hold. Out of camera JPGs not so good. Inferior kit lenses. Much more expensive for a two lens kit than the Olympus.Canon XSi -- Not impressed by the build quality, felt plasticy. Not comfortable for me to hold. Out of camera JPGs not so good. Bulkier than the Olympus. Inferior kit lenses.Panasonic G1 -- Limited lens selection; will take legacy MF lenses but doesn't offer image stabilization with them since it isn't in the body. Plasticy. Not much smaller than the Olympus. More expensive than Olympus for a two lens kit.Sony A300 & A350 -- Hated the button placement--ruled them out on that alone. Live view is very good though.Pentax K...
