Digital Cameras by Less than $400








Samsung Digimax V700 Samsung Digimax V700



Samsung has been bold recently, laying out plans to penetrate the digital camera market and position itself among the leaders, up with Canon, Nikon, and Sony. But it certainly won't get there making mediocre cameras like the 7.1-megapixel Digimax V700. Given the problems we found in testing and using this compact, the V700 falls far short of its competition. More
 
Samsung NV10 Samsung NV10



The NV10, a 10-megapixel model, joins the NV Series of digital still cameras featuring unique, slim designs with sleek bodies in brushed black, stainless steel and a trademark Samsung blue ring located around the lens of each model.  It features a revolutionary, easy-to-use Graphical User Interface (GUI) that allows users to easily toggle through menu functions using a convenient touch pad located along the LCD on the back of the camera, instead of the traditional dial located at the top of the camera.  For outstanding image quality, the NV10 features legendary Schneider optics.    More
 
Sanyo Xacti VPC-E6 Sanyo Xacti VPC-E6



The Sanyo Xacti VPC-E6U ($399.99 list) has fairly standard image-capture elements for an ultracompact: A 6-megapixel sensor and a 3X optical zoom with a 6.3mm-to-18.9mm range (a 35mm equivalent of 38mm to 114mm) and corresponding maximum f-stops of f/3.3 to f/4.0. It does have a sleek exterior and sweet 3-inch LCD screen, but here's the feature that distinguishes the camera from all others we've seen to date: It talks. The pleasant female voice, along with other odd features, gives it a quirky vibe. Unfortunately, this shooter just doesn't perform as well as its main rivals, the Kodak EasyShare-One and the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-N1. More
 
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H5 Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H5



On the surface, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H5 has plenty of the allure that makes Sony cameras and camcorders popular: provocative design and a bunch of features that everybody seems to want. For example, the Sony H5 has a bright three-inch LCD and a whopping 12X optical zoom that gives you the feeling you've got all the photo control you'll ever need. Plus, the camera is equipped with image stabilization, a feature that lets you zoom into a scene without needing a tripod to keep your hand steady, at least in some situations. Still, it's not the stellar superzoom I had hoped for from Sony. More

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W100 Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W100



The Cyber-shot DSC-W100 ($350) is the top-end camera in Sony's 2006 W-series lineup. While it shares a similar design and lens with the other models, the W100 has the most resolution, courtesy of its 8.1 Megapixel CCD. More
