Samsung SC-HMX10

Photo gallery:Samsung SC-HMX10Samsung takes some interesting turns to deliver its semibudget-priced, flash-based HD camcorder. On one hand, the SC-HMX10 seems to offer quite a bit for the money, including 720p video, 8GB built-in memory, manual exposure controls, and a microphone input, all in a diminutive package. On the other hand,...

Zoom H2

MP3 players and cell phones are fine for recording the occasional voice memo, but recording a music recital or broadcast-quality interview requires a product with more muscle. The Zoom H2 is not the smallest or best-sounding mobile audio recorder we've come across, but with an unbeatable street price of around...

Olympus SP-560 UZ

Photo gallery:Olympus SP-560 UZLast year, Olympus released the SP-550UZ, a 7-megapixel digital camera with an impressive 18x zoom lens. We loved its lens' long reach and wide angle, and appreciated its great body design. Unfortunately, the camera was plagued with performance and picture quality issues. Now Olympus offers the SP-560UZ,...

Manfrotto 585 Modosteady 3-in-1 Multifunction Camcorder Stabilizer

Manfrotto's Modosteady Three-in-One is an exceedingly clever--perhaps overly clever--multipurpose camcorder support. Capable of serving as a tabletop tripod, shoulder brace, or counterbalance stabilizer, in theory the Modosteady solves a variety of in-the-field stabilization problems. In practice, it seemed to be less useful than I expected, especially for the price. ...

Kodak EasyShare EX-1011 Digital Picture Frame

Earlier this year we reviewed Kodak's EX-811 8-inch digital photo with built-in wireless connectivity and were generally very impressed with the product. More recently, Kodak sent us over a review sample of the larger, 10-inch model in the same series, the EX-1011, which retails for around $250. Except for...

Canon DC50

Typically, when shooting still photos, camcorders offer few exposure options and turn out low-quality images. Conversely, most dedicated still cameras tend to offer disappointing video, and are best left to only take pictures. The Canon DC50 manages to avoid these limitations, to an extent. This standard-definition DVD camcorder not only...

Philips SPC-900NC Webcam

The Philips SPC 900NC is a serviceable Webcam, but it can't match up to the Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000, which lists for the same $99. What this Philips cam has going for it is the ability to capture smooth video at up to 60 frames per second, the best face-tracking...

Canon DC230

Were you to set the Canon DC230 right next to its little brother, the DC220, you would be hard-pressed to tell them apart. Besides slightly darker accents, the DC230 looks identical to its little brother. Both DVD camcorders sport the same size, shape, and design, measuring 2.1 inches thick and...

Lowepro Vertex 200 AW

Lowepro likes to cultivate a rugged image. Maybe it's because the company's founder Greg Lowe is a world-class mountain climber and invented the world's first internal frame backpack, or maybe it's because they know the liberating feeling of having your camera equipment in a bag that can keep it safe...
