Photographyblog has posted a review of the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ5 digital camera.
The DMC-LZ5 was awarded 4 out of 5 stars.
The review result:
“Overall, the new Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ5 is a stylish, easy to use, versatile point and shoot camera that is afflicted by an old problem. The noise issue is by no means a show-stopper, particularly if you live in a sunny climate or tend to shoot mostly outdoors, but it does stop me from recommending this camera more strongly.”

A review of the Nikon D200 digital camera is available at DCRP.
Here is an extract of the review:
“The D200 is not aimed toward beginners, as the lack of automatic or scene modes attests. […] Enthusiasts, however, will be thrilled with the manual controls and custom functions, of which there are too many to list here. […]
As you might expect, camera performance is first rate. […] Photo quality was excellent as well. […] My only real photo quality complaint is that noise levels are higher than I would’ve liked at ISO sensitivities above 640. […]
All things considered, though, the Nikon D200 is a heck of a camera. I really enjoyed using it, and I would recommend it to anyone, whether you’re just starting out with a D-SLR, or if you’re upgrading from an older Nikon D-SLR.”
