Olympus Pen E-PL1 02.08.2010 More
Despite being introduced onto the market only about two years ago, the development of the Micro 4/3 standard up to now has not left anyone questioning this viable concept, perfectly filling in the gap in the market of photography equipment. In our reviews, we have already introduced the first Pen mode from Olympus – E-P1; now, let us look at the newest Pen, the E-PL1.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 22.06.2010 More
How many times have you missed out on an opportunity to take a wonderful photograph just because you did not bring your camera along? You simply had too many things to carry and weren’t bothered to handle an additional piece. There are countless reasons that limit our photographic ambitions. These limitations are however very influential concerning the Week of Life members,

since if they were without a camera, the project just wouldn’t be the same. So why not try a compact camera that you can carry around at all times?


Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ10 03.05.2010 More
Viewfinder-less ultra zoom compact cameras are a very popular type nowadays. The range of the stabilized optics is usually high, but based on dimensions, they fall into the typical compact camera category. Moreover, the new Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ10 is very well equipped with all sorts of functions, including the above standard built-in GPS module.

Samsung NX10 07.04.2010 More
The introduction of the so-called professional compact cameras or the ‘non-SLRs’ if you want with the Micro Four Thirds standard (we’ve already introduced Olympus Pen E-P1 a Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 on the WoL site) opened a new field of camera development in digital photography. In the scope of image quality, these cameras reach the standard of SLRs, as well as being lighter and much more compact. No wonder that another company entered the market with a similar concept shortly after the others – this time it was Samsung.  


Nikon D5000 18.03.2010 More
If Canon is number one on the SLR market, the two spot has been held firmly for some time by its long-time rival, Nikon. Said company also has a wide product range, starting with purely professional units, continuing to semi-pro SLRs and finally, the amateur models available to the general public. We will now introduce one product from the latter group – the Nikon D5000.  


Canon PowerShot S90 03.03.2010 More
Compact cameras, stylish as they are, are generally conceived as exposure machine, not quite reaching the level of top-notch digital compacts. With a few exceptions – the Leica D-Lux 4, whose test you can find here on our website, surely deserves to belong in the category alongside the top camera models. And convincingly enough, so does the decent Canon PowerShot S90, the pretext of this review.  


Canon EOS 7D 19.02.2010 More
Digital reflex cameras certainly belong at the top of contemporary photographic equipment, and Canon deserves a spot among the leading manufacturers of these advanced machines. Much like compact cameras, digital reflex cameras offer various possibilities to choose from. This review introduces the most advanced model of the Canon digital SLR utilizing the APS-C image sensor - Canon EOS 7D.  


Casio Exilim EX-H10 03.02.2010 More
Thanks to digital technology, the field of photographic equipment saw the entrance of companies that had very little to do with cameras when film ruled the industry. One could name, for instance, Panasonic, Sony, and Casio. This Japanese company has long been more than just a calculator manufacturer. Among other things, Casio’s portfolio features digital cameras, which are definitely not uninteresting.  


Canon PowerShot G11 04.01.2010 More
If you even remotely follow the development of digital photography technology, you could not have missed that one of the basic parameters – resolution – has slowly and continually been improving. This year, and apparently for the first time in history, the opposite took place: for its flagship product among compact cameras, model PowerShot G11, Canon used a sensor with a lower resolution than its predecessor, the G10.  


Samsung ST550 18.12.2009 More
Digital technology allowed conventional optical viewfinders in cameras to be replaced by electronic displays (which of course have a lot of other functions). The typical characteristic of digital cameras is thus a sizable LCD display on the back side. But would you think of placing a display on the front side of the camera, too?

The goal of the Week of Life documentary project is to document the lives of people on planet Earth. Through the unique medium of photography, we have an opportunity to share our lives with the whole world and thereby overcome many barriers. All that’s needed is to take a camera in one hand and press the shutter button. And thanks to the advent of digital photography, sharing one’s photographs in the largest documentary project is a matter of minutes. Every individual week of life is like a small documentary, which together with others helps to create a truly unique photo library of humanity.
