Tuesday, 14 September 1999 04:00 GMT

PC Watch's resident professional photographer Yamada has updated his large array of sample images from most of the current (and upcoming) digital cameras on the market, a great way for you to see how the image quality of one camera stands up against another. Updated (now fine weather shots): Toshiba PDR-M5, Casio QV-2000UX, QV-8000SX. Fuji MX1700Z UPDATED: ADDED SONY DSC-F505 Samples

Below is a translation of his sample images table in English (links to images courtesy of PC Watch and Yamada). Font size reduced to fit table in browser.
