Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 preview

Reviews It's finally here: the first camera to ape the interchangeable lens flexibility of an SLR -- but it's not an SLR. Without the mirror and prism mechanism, portability is the G1's big draw: the flexibility of an SLR in a massively reduced body size.

Popcorn Hour A-100 review

Reviews Here was something that offered support for every major -- and a good number of minor -- codecs, had loads of flexibility and didn't cost the Earth. The key to a good media streamer is flexibility to get files on to the device and then play them.

Superzoom digital cameras

Reviews They are not as complicated as dSLRs but allow for greater flexibility -- the important functions will often have their own buttons or easy-to-use thumb wheels. Meanwhile the 7.1-megapixel Panasonic DMC-FZ8 captures raw footage as well as JPEGs...

Toshiba 32WLT66 review

Reviews There's even more colour flexibility via a so-called 3D Colour Management option that shifts the emphasis of the TV's colour and white-balance settings towards PC use for those wanting to double the TV up as a computer monitor.

Sony RDR-HXD995 review

Reviews There's still a wealth of movies, drama, comedy and documentaries to record though, and if you need flexibility, you'll want to grab a DVD recorder and PVR with plenty of storage space, and can record cable or satellite from a number of inputs...

ATI Radeon X1800 XT (512MB) review

Reviews ATI shot a blank with its dual-card CrossFire release recently, and while its next-generation Radeon X1800 XT (around £350 online) is a powerful Direct3D gaming tool, it doesn't hold up in design elegance or dual-card flexibility when compared...

Canon PowerShot A640 review

Reviews Though it lacks the flexibility of higher-end cameras and the stylish portability of more compact shooters, the 10-megapixel PowerShot A640 is a smart, fully featured camera with some surprising benefits.

Popcorn Hour A-110 review
