If anything, Minox does a decent job of aping its big name counterparts in looks and feature set --- if only it wasn't on average a couple years late to the party. The Minox DC-8011 seems to be a perfectly passable budget compact, with an 8 megapixel CCD, 2.7-inch LCD and electric image stabilization. It [...]

Unfortunately, everybody's worst fear about the FinePix F50fd seems to be true --- according to a recent review over at PhotographyBLOG, anyway. Apparently, stuffing a 12-megapixel sensor into this pocket-friendly digicam wasn't exactly the most intelligent idea, as reviewers found the picture quality to be downright disappointing. Particularly in low-light situations, the camera faltered mightily, [...]

Merely months after launching the Flip Video, Pure Digital is hitting back with the sleeker, sexier Flip Video Ultra. The ultra-compact camcorder touts "on-board software to enable editing, organizing, and seamless video uploading to AOL, YouTube and other video sharing sites," and even includes a video output for watching captures on TV. The device includes [...]

Here in America, we don't take our home security systems lightly, but for those in Japan, it appears that they haven't resorted to installing sensor-triggered weapons in their windows just yet. The HC-1000 camera can be controlled via the internet or a FOMA mobile, and allows users to take a peek at what's going on [...]

Next time you're "under the sea" and want to try and snap some photos of Flounder, Scuttle or Sebastian, you'll be all set thanks to Minox and its DC 6033 WP watertight camera (pictured above). The 6 megapixel, waterproof (to ten meters) camera features a MINOCTAR fixed lens, SD card support, and 16MB of onboard [...]

The trickle of digital cameras out of BenQ looks to be holding steady, with the company following up its P860 and T700 cams released last month with its new DC-E605 model, itself and update to the DC-E600. Like that earlier model, the big selling point here is the cam's "3D-rotating lens," which promises to speed [...]

Three cheers for citizens arrest! Actually, the case might end up going in the opposite direction, as a Bartow County couple could be arrested and tried for "allegedly stalking a Kennesaw police officer by installing cameras to track neighborhood speeders." While it seems perfectly okay to mount radars and speed traps all over our bustling [...]

Canon's really loving on the budget set, with them ZR and DC camcorders it released a couple weeks ago, and now a trio of PowerShots that go ultra-easy on the pocket book. The new A-series cams include the PowerShot A550 and A460, which go for $200 and $150, and sport 7.1 megapixel and 5.0 megapixel [...]

Let's face it: Hello Kitty has been losing a bit of gadget cred lately, what with that recent "spontaneous combustion" recall, along with a general move to the fluff. Well, Her Pinkness is back on track, feeding our specification lust while keeping to the pink and narrow. This new Hello Kitty DC500 digital camera sports [...]

Remember that ridiculously-sized but utterly awesome Seitz 6×17 Digital that we showed you yesterday? Well, Seitz has another one to wave around at this year's Photokina. This time, though, it's a 360-degree cam that'll capture 470 million pixels worth of color and light, and furthermore, will complete that task in two seconds --- less than [...]
