Canon IXUS 960 IS Digital Camera - Titanium (12.1MP, 3.7x Optical Zoom) 2.5" LCD

Sharp, 2008-04-28
Just a quick note: the lens is uncannily sharp. Really, A2 prints as sharp as anything I've taken ever.

Fuji 2GB XD Picture Card Type M

Arrived quickly, works fine, 2008-05-02
I ordered from flash_memory two days ago, it arrived this morning and so far it's working great. They charge a lot for shipping (five pounds for a little memory card!), but if you add this to the price of the card, you still get a better price than you would in a store.

UPDATE: This is a 2GB card, but when I connected my FujiFilm FinePix F480 to my computer (I'm running Windows Vista), only the first 1GB of pictures showed up. The others were still on the camera, but the computer couldn't see them. But once I downloaded the first 1GB of pictures to my computer and deleted them from the camera, disconnected the camera from the computer and reconnected it, I was able to download the rest of the pictures. This may be Windows Vista's fault, it may be the camera's fault, or it may be the card's fault, I don't know. But since I can still download all the pictures onto my computer, even if I have to go a somewhat roundabout way to get all of them, it's not a serious problem.

Top camera, best price, 2008-11-23
Had this approx 3months now and still keep discovering new features!
It looks great and feels well made, better than most casio and cannon cameras. The battery life is brilliant -took 163photos in one day many with the flash and still had 1/2battery life left. The camera is very easy to operate straight out the box -if you are unfamiliar with digital cameras just click the wheel round to EASY mode, and all settings are made by the camera. Timer functions, flash and focus options are all easily accesible on the back of the camera without having to go through any menu's. The back screen is large and very clear considering the size. The pictures are consistently good and the super steady shot really produces superb pictures from what would normally be a blured shot on other cameras. The only negative point that I have is -you have to buy a fairly large memory stick (1Gb+) as the camera can fill the standard memory very quickly (but this is the same as most digital cameras now). -Apart from that I think it is unbeatable, very pleased.

Fantastic And Easy, 2008-11-10
I'm currently volunteering out in Goa India at an animal rescue centre.
I purchased the Flip after reviewing many products and found this to be the simplist one. I need to take action videos and the compact size of the flip is great. I'm not keen on the onboard software and much prefer to use windows movie maker.

Great Camera, Great Price, 2008-10-16
I bought this camera largely based on reviews from the site. HAving previously had a Sony camera, and then a bad experience with another brand (largely my fault admittedly!) I was keen to return.

This camera has not dissappointed so far - it is very compact and I found the menu's to be largely intuitive. The buttons are not too difficult to use although the zoom could be a little smoother! Another minor gripe is that you can't zoom when filming, but then this is firstly a camera, so I'll not harp on.

The smile function has to be seen to be believed - it is a great fun tool (although I have found the subjects do need to be facing directly toward the camera for maximum effect) and has captured some really great shots.

Used recently at my brothers wedding, the camera performed well in both bright daylight, cloudier conditions, and in the dark function room later on for the all important first dance.

Given the price of around £100, I'd say this camera offers excellent value for money. Having since seen a friends W150 with the extra optical zoom, I'd say that the extra is worth it if you can stretch the budget!

Enjoy!

Caselogic Small Hard Drive Case, EVA Outer, Black

• Case Logic is a leading worldwide marketer of lifestyle-oriented products
• By building an excellent reputation for product quality, functionality, innovation, and customer service, the Case Logic brand has earned a position at the forefront of its target markets throughout the world

I was slightly worried by the other reviews...., 2008-06-19
....but I have to say I am delighted with these cases, I bought two to protect an old 2.5 inch drive and my new western digital 250 gb pasport drive.

The pouch might be slightly bigger than required but there is a band to hold the drive in place and room for a USB cabel on the other side.

The case is well made, solid and certainly feels as if it will offer excellent protection to my nice new external hard drive.

I am delighted with it.

SanDisk - Micro SDHC 8GB Card with Adapter

Works with Tocco, 2008-09-01
As others have said, this 8GB MicroSDHC card works with the Samsung Tocco (F480) mobile phone. I plugged my card in, turned the phone on, and it worked straight away. Although the documentation doesn't specify HC support, the fact the phone does allow up to 8GB (and you can only get > 4GB in SDHC, rather than standard SD format), implies that HC is supported.

No problems with inserting or removing the microSD card from the SD adapter, and didn't seem excessively fragile.
Comes with a nice little case too, for the card and adapter.

Great camera, excellent value, 2008-09-04
I bought this camera after being impressed by the picture quality of the cybershot photos on my sony mobile phone.
The camera is really easy to use, i prefer to use the auto setting and my photos always turn out well.
It can take a fair amount of punishment. I have dropped it countless times on nights out and even had drinks spilled on it and it still looks and works perfectly.
If you are looking for an easy to use camera that gives you great quality pictures every time then this is the camera for you.

SANDISK 2GB ULTRA II SD CARD

• Faster write speed means less time between shots 9MB/second
• Read performance 1MB/second
• Provides the durability and high speed quality needed for advanced amateur photographers and photo enthusiasts
• Lifetime warranty

Quick and sturdy, 2008-06-22
Bought this in March 2006 for my Canon Ixus 50.
No problems so far and occasionally it goes into a 12MP camera from work and seems to have no problem dealing with RAW files from that camera (such is the speed).
I have always rated SanDisk for memory cards and haven't had a reason to doubt them yet.
