Olympus E-510 review

Reviews Of course, those modes are still available in the E-510, and can give you the same level of exposure control you find in other SLRs. In Olympus' case, the E-410 and E-510 include Live View LCD preview mode to mimic the way you frame a shot with a...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-L1 review

Reviews The DSC-L1 remembers your last menu selection, so if you're frequently adjusting exposure on the fly (±2EV in 1/3EV steps), pressing the menu key brings up the exposure compensation menu. However, mediocre image quality, a tiny 38mm (1.5-inch) LCD...

Kodak EasyShare V610 review

Reviews Unlike most big zoom cameras, the 6-megapixel Kodak EasyShare V610 is small and made mostly for casual users, so it doesn't include manual exposure controls. When not in the menu, the rocker lets you apply exposure compensation in 1/3-stop...

Pentax K10D review

Reviews As with most LCDs, the colour and exposure reproduction on the K10D's 64mm (2.5-inch) screen can't be trusted -- it's so contrasty, in fact, that we couldn't really judge whether the flash was operating the way we wanted.

Reviews Just beneath the joystick is a more traditional four-way cursor pad with central OK/Menu button, used to navigate menus, adjust the exposure when you press up (±2EV in 1/3EV increments), review the latest picture (down), activate a 2- or 10-second...

Olympus C-770 Ultra Zoom review

Reviews A dozen automatic shooting modes; sophisticated exposure, flash, and white-balance automation; and simple controls make this Olympus a camera that a neophyte can grow with. The four-way cursor keys with a central OK/Menu button allow you to...

Canon Powershot G10 review

Reviews Having one-touch access to these settings is extremely handy, although we would have preferred a dedicated shutter speed dial rather than exposure compensation. A dial on the left shoulder gives quick access to exposure compensation, while another...

Fujifilm FinePix E510 review

Reviews There's a bright, easily readable 2-inch LCD screen sandwiched between the E510's four-way selector on the right and its exposure control button on the left. That said, the bumped-up exposure will make for more direct-from-the-camera detail in low...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-V3 review

Reviews Crucial exposure settings are adjusted via a thumbwheel. For the most part, Sony intelligently arranged the V3's controls, but the exposure-compensation and AE Lock buttons require somewhat awkward left-handed activation.
