The Best Digital Cameras 2013
Apr 14, 2013Counting the user feedback, internet reviews, and doing our own grade based evaluation and extensive tests on many of the year's models, we created definitive list for the best digital cameras of the year. Some of our choices are carry-overs from 2012, either because the update wasn't worth the money or they haven't been replaced yet, but we'll continue to update this list as the year goes on. And we acknowledge some enthusiasts out there probably wont agree with all our choices (if any), so feel free to let us know what your best choices are. Read More » -

But if you get nostalgic about looking through a camera’s viewfinder (or just can't see your LCD in the sun), here a few cameras whose viewfinders made the cut. Read More » -

Despite dwindling numbers, AA-powered digital cameras remain very popular, especially among travelers or any avid photographer who might be miles away from an outlet for days at a time. Here are some of the best digital cameras that run on the swappable, buy-anywhere power provided by AA batteries. Read More » -
Best Digital Cameras For Enthusiasts
Dec 06, 2012Enthusiasts are photography buffs that care -- deeply, deeply care -- about having the latest and greatest camera. They compare spec sheets, they pixel peep, they peruse rumor sites, they argue on message boards, and they already have tons and tons of equipment. As with an aficionado of any persuasion, it's probably best to let them do the shopping themselves, but if you're feeling brave and want to surprise the enthusiast in your life with a big present, look below for digital cameras that are sure to put a smile even on his or her opinionated face.
