The
Sony Mavica FD-91 is at the top of Sony's Mavica range of cameras
(if you ignore the DSC-D700). Looking like something from a 1970's
future technology magazine it's certainly not the best looking
of Sony's range, but how it takes photographs is of course more
important.
This is a camera loaded with features,
and for those traditional photography enthusiasts out there looking
for 'full manual control', this camera gets pretty close.
Manual aperture and shutter priority
rank high on the list of useful features, along with full manual focus,
spot metering, manual white balance and a quite unbeliveable 14 x
zoom.
One
other quite unique feature of this camera is it's "steady
shot" optics, straight from Sony's camcorder range this interesting
piece of technology actually enables a floating lens at the far
end of the lens barrel which automatically adjusts for any camera
shake, thus the rather bulbous appendage on the end of the lens
barrel (you can of course switch this feature off if you prefer).

It says Olympus on the front, but the OM System OM-1 is about the future, not the past. It may still produce 20MP files, but a quad-pixel AF Stacked CMOS sensor, 50 fps shooting with full AF and genuine, IP rated, weather sealing show OM Digital Solutions' ambition. See what we thought.
Is the GH6 the best hybrid camera there is? Jordan has been shooting DPReview TV with the Panasonic GH6 for months, so he has plenty of experience to back up his strong opinions.
