In my review of the stylish new IXUS 310 HS I find out what else Canon has improved for the new model… Head to www.t3.com to read my review.
I spent some of last week out in the Spring sunshine putting Panasonic’s new super tough Lumix FT3 camera through it’s paces at the beach. The 12.1 MP compact has a feature-set which should really appeal to adrenalin junkies and extreme sports types – it’s dustproof, waterproof to 12 meters, shockproof to 2 meters and freezproof to -10 degrees. There’s also full HD Movie recording and a great GPS function. Does it take good pictures though? Click here to read my review and find out…
