The EOS M is Canon's long-awaited entry into the mirror-less CSC market. It employs an 18 Megapixel APS-C sensor and a new EF-M lens mount with a 1.6x crop factor. Canon's launched the EOS-M with two native M-mount lenses, while the entire Canon EF and EF-S lens catalogue is supported with the optional EF-EOS M adapter. I've started testing a final production sample, so ahead of my full review, here's my Canon EOS M noise results!They join my Canon EOS M sample images plus a couple of sample movies demonstrating low light and focus tracking!Archives for October 2012

Looking for an affordable big brand super-zoom? Nikon's COOLPIX L810 could be a good bet, sporting a 26x stabilised range, 16.1 Megapixel CCD and a 3in screen with 921k resolution. Essentially, it's a point and shoot super-zoom, with ease of use, compactness, and affordability being its major selling points. It's a combination which has seen it spend much of the year near the top of the sales charts, but how good is it really? Find out how it compares to Canon's SX500 IS in my Nikon L810 review!Canon D20 waterproof camera review!

The Canon PowerShot D20 is a rugged waterproof camera designed for use outdoors in the kind of conditions you'd hesitate to take a conventional camera. It's waterproof to 10 Meters, dustproof, shockproof and can be used in temperatures from -10 to 40 degrees Celsius. It's Canon's second waterproof model and arrives three years after the original D10. Canon's swapped the sensor, broadened the zoom, added Full HD video and completely restyled the body. But how does it perform in practice compared to rivals? Find out in my Canon D20 review!Nikon vs Tamron 24-70mm f2.8 comparison!

One of the most popular lenses in any catalogue is the 24-70mm f2.8. These offer a useful general-purpose range on full-frame (and cropped) bodies, while their bright f2.8 aperture is ideal for low-light and shallow depth-of-field portraits. Thing is, they don't come cheap, so the big question is how a third-party option compares to the big brands. In my 24-70mm comparison you'll see how the premium Nikon 24-70mm f2.8 compares against the cheaper, not to mention stabilized Tamron version, and for fun I've also included the Nikon 24-85mm as a budget wildcard.Sony Cyber-shot RX100 review!

The Panasonic Lumix LX7 is a high-end compact aimed at enthusiasts. It replaces the classic LX5 and while it shares the same 24-90mm equivalent range the focal ratio is now brightened from f2-3.3 to f1.4-2.3. This makes it the brightest overall compact, just pipping the Samsung EX2F at the tele end. Other upgrades include 1080p video, 11fps shooting and a 920k dot screen. In a world of system cameras and large sensor compacts the LX7 fights back by going bright. Find out why it remains a highly compelling option for enthusiasts my Panasonic LX7 review!Nikon 24-70mm f2.8G review!

The Nikon 24-70mm f2.8 is a top-end zoom aimed at portrait and wedding photographers. It's also ideal for anyone who desires a bright general-purpose zoom for a full-frame body. Like other 24-70mm f2.8 zooms, it's not exactly cheap, so prospective buyers need to know if it's worth the money. Find out how it performs on a demanding D800 in our Nikon 24-70mm f2.8 review, and don't forget to also check out our earlier Tamron 24-70mm f2.8 review as an alternative option.
