 I
have just posted a gallery of 27 sample images from a production Minolta
DiMAGE A1. This is in advance of completing our full review which should
be up within the next three weeks. I have to say that I was surprised
at how well the DiMAGE A1 performed, it's clearly a step ahead of the
DiMAGE 7Hi in terms of image quality and is most certainly in the running
to be labelled the best five megapixel prosumer digital camera. Resolution,
sharpness, tonal balance (with good dynamic range) and color response
are all improved. Add to this the A1's unique image stabilzation which
allows you to shoot at much slower shutter speeds and the A1 is a very
impressive 'all in one' package.

not reproduce any of these images on a website or any newsletter / magazine

The EF-M 32mm F1.4 is a welcome addition to Canon's APS-C mirrorless lens lineup. It's a good performer all-around and enjoyable to use on the EOS M50, and we hope to see more like it introduced to the EF-M range.
We don't often get excited about $900 cameras, but the Fujifilm X-T30 has really impressed us thus far. Find out what's new, what it's like to use and how it compares to its peers in our review in progress.
The S1 and S1R are Panasonic's first full-frame mirrorless cameras so there's a plenty to talk about. We've taken a look at the design and features of both cameras and have some initial impressions, as well.
We reviewed three of the more popular 'pocket printers,' the Canon Ivy, Fujifilm Instax Share and Polaroid ZIP. Here's the one we recommend...
The Olympus OM-D E-M1X is a more powerful dual-grip evolution of the E-M1 II. Aimed at sports shooters it promises improved AF, including advanced subject recognition, along with the highest-ever rated image stabilization system.
