You may question why I selected the Samsung WB250F for review after my less than positive review of the Galaxy, a camera replete with all sorts of problems like dust on the sensor, poor ISO performance and an inordinately long startup time!

My reasons: Samsung is now a major player in electronics, especially smart phones and the like, so a reasonably priced device such as this is worthy of attention.

The Samsung WB250F has an 18x zoom which begins on a usefully wide 24mm 35 SLR equivalent focal length and reaches out to a 35 SLR equivalent of 432mm.

Samsung has evolved its innovative Wi-Fi technology by creating SMART CAMERA 2.0: with it images and video can be …

It has been 4 months since we updated our ‘Popular Cameras and Gear’ list here on dP – a list of the hottest selling cameras and accessories among our readers (based upon what they are buying on Amazon*).

So today I have updated the most popular DSLR list of cameras. What follows is the most popular camera DSLR bodies.

It is topped by Canons Rebel T4i which tops the list for the first time after quite a long reign of the T3i (now in #2 spot).

So don’t expect to pay top dollar for a top quality camera but Canon still considers it to be ‘the most advanced entry-level EOS model to date …’

The Canon EOS 700D (also known as the Canon EOS Rebel T5i is a successor to the EOS 650D model, displaying identical specs and only differing in weight by being only five grams heavier. In model ranking, it currently sits above the EOS 600D.

The body is made from stainless steel and polycarbonate resin with glass fibre. Light …

I’m often asked by beginning photographers about what I use to shoot my photos, whether it’s landscapes, portraits, sports, or some other subject.  Most often, they are referring to the camera used, the lenses, maybe the flash. But the truth is that there’s more to taking great photos than just the camera.  The truth is, the contents of my bag changes dependent on what I plan to be shooting. I’ve compiled a list of items that are always in my bag when I’m on a landscape photo outing, along with how they’ve helped me in my quest for better photos.

Nikon has again upped the ante in its compact digicam lineup and the Nikon Coolpix p330 is an excellent example of the movement.

A biggish 15mm CMOS sensor, moderate pixel count plus a fast f1.8 lens leads to a surprisingly high performance in such a moderately-priced camera.
