Canon powershot sd900 review

The 10-megapixel Canon PowerShot SD900 manages to be stylish without being inconvenient or awkward. Its sturdy metal body, an attractive matte-gray with black accents, is smooth and slightly curvy, and at 6.7 ounces and 1.1 inches thick, it's just the right size to fit into a jacket pocket. All the controls are on the camera's right side, so nearly every button is within thumb's reach for comfortable one-handed use. A 2.5-inch LCD screen takes up most of the camera's remaining back panel but leaves enough room for an optical viewfinder. The viewfinder is small and awkward, but it provides a welcome alternative to the LCD.

While the SD900 is heavy on style, like most of the SD series, it's pretty light on features. You can adjust the white balance, the exposure compensation, the ISO sensitivity, and the metering settings, but in true point-and-shoot fashion, most shooting happens with the camera in automatic mode or through its handful of scene presets. It offers 30fps VGA movie capture or XGA (1,024x768) movies at 15fps.

Unlike the SD800 IS, with its relatively fast, wide-angle lens, the SD900 sports a rather mundane f/2.8-to-f/4.9, 37mm-to-111mm-equivalent model. It features the recent Digic III image processor, which Canon claims improves performance, image quality, and battery life over the previous chip. We've haven't seen any significant improvement over past-generation cameras, but the SD900's predecessors, the SD600 and the SD630, already boast strong performance and image quality.

The Canon PowerShot SD900 is a moderately fast shooter, especially for a 10-megapixel model. After waiting 1.3 seconds from power-on to first shot, we managed to snap one photo every 2.3 seconds. With the onboard flash enabled, that wait increased to a still-respectable 3 seconds. The shutter felt quite responsive, lagging only 0.5 second in bright light and 0.9 second in dim conditions. Burst mode was predictably slow, shooting a full-resolution photo once every 0.9 second.

HP Pavilion ZT3000 Reviews

HP puts a slick spin on its new Pavilion zt3000 notebook, with cool blue and green status lights and bright silver accents. But this thin-and-light offers more than a pretty face. It packs plenty of useful features, including a big, 15.4-inch screen and built-in 54g (802.11g at 54Mbps) wireless. The Pavilion zt3000 doesn't match its sweet specs with top-rung performance, but it does provide enough power for its target audience, home users and small businesses. If you're one of the above, you'll find the Pavilion zt3000 a solid laptop for basic tasks. If you need a multimedia powerhouse, look to the HP Pavilion zd7000 instead.

Design

The Pavilion zt3000 is the home version of HP's business notebook, the Compaq nx7000. Both laptops come in the same thin-and-light case, measuring 1.3 by 10 by 14 inches and weighing 6.5 pounds--a standard weight for a notebook with a 15.4-inch screen. The two notebooks also feature some identical design elements, such as a big, comfortable keyboard flanked by two rich-sounding speakers. Three handy buttons--volume up, volume down, and mute--sit atop the right speaker; a tiny red light alerts you when mute is off.

Both HP notebooks include the same awesome touchpad design: A line conveniently cordons off the right side of the pad, showing you where to place your finger for scrolling. A button above the pad turns it on and off, preventing you from sending your cursor flying by accidentally hitting the pad while typing.

The Pavilion zt3000 offers the same complete selection of bays, ports, and slots as the Compaq nx7000. The left edge sports one PC Card slot plus an internal, fixed bay for secondary storage drives. The opposite edge includes an IrDA port, while the back edge features ports for S-Video out, parallel, Ethernet, 56K modem, and VGA and three USB 2.0 ports. Green system status lights line the front edge, along with headphone and microphone ports, a Secure Digital card slot, and a wireless on/off button with a futuristic blue light in its center.

Features

Whether you're a computing neophyte or an old pro, HP makes it easy to buy the Pavilion zt3000. You can go with a preconfigured model, or you can do the picking and choosing yourself.

If you choose to configure it, HP offers many ways to pack the notebook with cutting-edge features. The system's Pentium M processor is available in speeds ranging from 1.4 to 1.7GHz. Main DDR memory comes in increments from 256MB to 2GHz. The ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 graphics chip offers 32MB or 64MB of dedicated video RAM. Hard drives spin at 4,200rpm and go from 30 to 80GB; to get a little more speed out of your notebook, HP offers a 60GB drive spinning at 5,400rpm. The fixed bay supports a CD, DVD, DVD/CD-RW, or DVD+RW drive. Wireless choices consist of Intel's Pro Wireless 2100 802.11b mini-PCI card or Broadcom's cutting-edge 54g card. The 15.4-inch display ships with two native resolutions: 1,280x800 and 1,680x1,050. While the latter allows for finer image detail, it also makes the text extremely tiny.

The notebook's software bundle includes some useful applications for everything from office productivity to multimedia tasks. Windows' XP Home and XP Professional are available as operating systems; Pro costs $75 extra. HP throws Microsoft Works and Microsoft Money 2003 in, too, but you can also buy more-expensive options such as Office 2003 Small Business Edition for up to $250. Other highlights include InterVideo WinDVD for DVD viewing, Roxio Easy CD and DVD Creator 6.0 for CDs and DVD burning, and Quicken New User Edition 2003 for personal finance tracking.

Performance

The Pavilion zt3000 came in first place in mobile performance in this small test group. This system has the advantage of sporting the fastest processor in the group, with its Pentium M 1.7GHz. Unfortunately, it also has a relatively slow 4,200rpm hard drive. This may be why the Dell Inspiron 600M was able to score only a point below with its slower Pentium M 1.6GHz processor: it has a faster 5,400rpm hard drive. Beyond basic specs however, mobile performance can be determined by how much each system throttles its processor speed down in order to save on battery life. This may explain why the WinBook C series came in a close third even with its slower 1.4GHz processor and 4,200rpm hard drive, as both the Pavilion zt3000 and the Dell Inspiron 600M throttle their performance down to the WinBook C series' level. The HP still achieves good performance when running office and content-creation apps in an unplugged state, though with a faster hard drive, the performance could have been much better.

Battery life of HP Pavilion zt3000

The HP Pavilion zt3000 fits those battery code number #336962-001, Hp 337607-001, 337607-002, 337607-003,the Hp 337607-001 battery have a capacity of 4400Mah,it's output volts is 14.80V ,it can supply planty power to your pavilion zt3000 laptop battery.

The HP Pavilion zt3000 BATTERY lasted well over three hours in battery life, thanks to its 14.8V, 4,400mAh (65WHr) battery, which gives the system the juice to run office and content-creation apps at a good clip, while still giving the user ample time to get work done on the go. The system's score was 20 minutes longer than the Dell Inspiron 600M's, which has a less powerful 11.1V, 4,320mAh (48WHr) battery. The WinBook C series was the clear winner, however, as it lasted more than four hours with its 14.8V, 4,400mAh (65WHr) battery. The WinBook C series also had the advantage of having the slowest processor, which draws less battery power.

Sony DCR-TRV33 review

The DCR-TRV33 is the high end of the Sony entry level 2003 MiniDV camcorders. The DCR-TRV33 offers strong handling and is light weight and balanced well making it very easy to use. Although the touch screen LCD makes it very hard to control the manual picture functions on the DCR-TRV33. In all the DCR-TRV33 is the advanced product of the DCR-TRV22, the two camcorders are very similar, though nearly identical to its slightly cheaper sibling, the DCR-TRV22, the DCR-TRV33 MiniDV camcorder has a couple of important differences. The improvement is a CCD with a higher resolution: 690,000 effective pixels for video (compared with the TRV22's 340,000 pixels) and 1 megapixel for stills (up from 680,000 pixels).All their OEM battery code is : np-qm71d, np-qm91d.

Features of Sony DCR-TRV33

For a camcorder in this class, the TRV33 has a relatively average feature set. Some competitors offer zoom ranges as high as 20X, but the TRV33's 10X should be enough for most home moviemaking. Programmed autoexposure modes optimize the camera's settings for different situations, such as days at the beach and in the snow. Exposure shift and manual focus are also available via the touch screen.

Widescreen mode A new addition to the MiniDV2003 is a 16:9 mode which utilizes more of the picture. Instead of letter boxing the shot as older camcorders would, the DCR-TRV33 utilizes all the pixels on the CCD, stretching the picture - resulting in the highest resolution 16:9 picture that the camcorder can produce. A nice feature is that although the picture is stretched on the tape - it appears letterboxed in the LCD and viewfinder so you aren't looking at a distorted picture.

Along with the typical special effects, including Black And White, Sepia, and Mosaic, you'll find an option that makes your movies look like old films by simulating a slower frame rate and adding a sepia tone. The infrared NightShot mode allows you to shoot in total darkness. The results have a strong greenish cast, similar to what you see with night-vision goggles. If that's unacceptable, go instead with the Color Slow Shutter mode, which maintains colors but produces jerky, noisy recordings. The accessory shoe accepts a combination video light and flash, which improves the quality of indoor footage and stills. Simple built-in wipes and overlays let you create transitions and titles without editing on a PC.

Performance of Sony DCR-TRV33

The DCR-TRV33 and all it's sister camcorders in the Sony 2003 MiniDV line are the auto super stars. The combination of pretty responsive auto controls with the Spot Focus and Spot Metering features make the DCR-TRV33 a great camcorder for anyone wanting to point and shoot. The zoom can be rapid or precise, slow, and steady. Alas, the TRV27's focus ring has given way to LCD gimmickry. Judging perfect focus can be tougher on the display than with the viewfinder, and tapping a screen to adjust focus doesn't feel as quick or as natural as turning a ring. Focusing is even more difficult in direct sunlight, which makes the LCD hard to see.

Compare with Sony DCR-TRV22

I prefer the video performance of the DCR-TRV33 over the $100 cheaper DCR-TRV22 - though only slightly. The DCR-TRV33 includes a slightly smaller CCD than the DCR-TRV22 which shows in the low light performance. There also isn't a significant difference however it is noticeable. Where the DCR-TRV33 outperforms the DCR-TRV22 is on still performance. In general I feel that the still performance on the DCR-TRV22 is a joke, the 640 x 480 stills are useless. The DCR-TRV33s stills are much better. This is the only major difference between the two camcorders. If you are looking for a camcorder that can produce stills I would go with the DCR-TRV33. If stills aren't important go with the DCR-TRV19 (it's best to just skip the DCR-TRV22 - it's the weak point in the Sony line).

ibm thinkpad a31 laptop and battery review

ibm thinkpad a31

The ThinkPad A31 sports ATI's Mobility Radeon 7500 video chip set with 32MB of dedicated RAM, as well as a 15-inch screen with a resolution of 1400 by 1050. The A-series ThinkPads are nothing if not flexible: Either of the A31's modular bays can hold the DVD-ROM/CD-RW combination drive you get at this price--or an extra-cost second battery, second hard drive, LS-120 SuperDisk drive, or Zip 250 drive. The extra-flexible right bay also can accommodate a numeric keypad or a pop-out syncing cradle for IBM's WorkPad, a Palm OS-based PDA. The A31 features the familiar and comfortable red-eraserhead-equipped IBM keyboard, which now sports a bright-blue Enter key and an Internet scroll key centered between the mouse buttons. Six additional Internet shortcut buttons, the first three user-reprogrammable, march down the left side of the keyboard in a separate vertical panel. On the top edge of its screen the A31 has both a ThinkLight, an LED that helps illuminate the keyboard in dark rooms, and an UltraPort, IBM's proprietary USB 1.1 port. The UltraPort takes any one of several small devices IBM sells, including a basic digital camera.


The A31 turned in disappointing performance. In our battery-life tests, thinkpad a31 battery ,its oraginal battery code :ibm 02k6793 lasted only 2 hours, 33 minutes, not much longer than the ThinkPad A30p we tested a few months ago (which used up its charge in 2 hours, 19 minutes). Despite its 1.6-GHz Pentium 4-M processor, the A31 also fell down in speed, with a PC WorldBench 4 score of 90, well below the scores of most notebooks we've tested with the older 1.13-GHz Pentium III processor. IBM's desktop replacements no longer come with floppy drives; a modular-bay model now costs $79 extra.


Other than the new processor, more graphics memory, and a higher screen resolution, the A31 doesn't differ much from its predecessor, the A30. The case slopes from a height of 2.3 inches at the hinges to 1.75 inches at the front, giving the keyboard a built-in tilt. In addition to all standard notebook connections, you get two stacked USB 1.1 ports and an S-Video-out port on the back. The speakers are on the front, where they are muffled a bit by the overhang of the case when it's closed, but they're fine for casual CD listening, aided by volume buttons above the keyboard. The A31 comes with IBM's fine Access ThinkPad on-screen manual, the best in the business because of its slick and enlightening animation. For instance, you can click on a play button to see each step required to upgrade the hard drive, beginning with an animated screwdriver removing the screw, then the drive sliding out, the brackets falling away, the new drive sliding in, and the screwdriver replacing the screw. However, the printed manual is rather skimpy, and an online manual won't help you much if you get stuck halfway through swapping the hard drive.


Although the A31 provides plenty of features for the price, those looking for the most features in a notebook should check out the A31's pricier sibling, the $3599 A31p. It boasts a 1600-by-1200 screen, a 60GB hard drive, and an even more powerful ATI video chip with twice the dedicated graphics RAM.

canon powershot G7 review

The Canon Powershot G7 is a ten megapixel digital camera with a 6x optical zoom lens. It is one of the most advanced compact digital cameras you will find and the layout of the camera helps to bring some its more advanced features to the fingertips of the more serious photographer. For example the Powershot G7 has a manual focusing ring on the back of the camera and an ISO settings dial on the top. It also has a hotshoe for adding an external flash unit. These are rare on a compact model.

Features

The 6x optical zoom lens has a focal length equivalent to 35 - 210mm in 35mm format. In addition to the optical zoom there are also special zoom features that can boost zoom by a further 2.3x if you decrease the number of megapixels you are shooting at. The Powershot G7 also has 4x digital zoom. Image stabilisation is also available.



There are a variety of focusing options including manual focusing. You can select between single and continuous auto focusing modes. For close up photography the camera can focus from 1cm away from the subject. Focus bracketing is also available.



For composing images there is an optical viewfinder. This has dioptre correction. Dioptre correction allows you to adjust the focusing of the viewfinder to suit your own eyesight. If you prefer there is a 2.5" LCD screen. This is made up of around 207,000 pixels.



The built in flash unit has a maximum range of 4m. This falls to around 2.5m when the zoom lens is in use. The basic flash modes are on, off and automatic. You can also use red eye reduction, second curtain synchronisation and slow sync speed. The power of the flash unit can be adjusted and you also have access to flash exposure lock and flash exposure compensation.



There are also a number of built in scene modes. These are: Portrait, Landscape, Night Scene, Sports, Night Snapshot, Kids & Pets, Indoor, Foliage, Snow, Beach, Fireworks, Aquarium, Underwater, ISO 3200, Color Accent and Color Swap. When you use a scene mode the camera will use what it considers to be the best settings for the photo.



To add something different to your work there are a number of colour options available. These are Vivid, Neutral, Sepia, Black & White, Positive Film, Lighter Skin Tone, Darker Skin Tone, Vivid Blue, Vivid Green, Vivid Red and Custom Color.



As you get to know the camera there is a lot to explore. As well as fully manual mode there are shutter priority and aperture priority modes as well. Shutter speeds work in the range from 15 seconds to 1/2500 seconds. The maximum aperture of the lens is f/2.8 (wide) and f/4.8 (tele).



More advanced features you have access to include metering (Evaluative, Centre-weighted average, Spot (centre or linked to Face Detection AF or FlexiZone AF frame)), exposure compensation (+/- 2 EV in 1/3 stop increments), auto exposure bracketing (1/3 - 2 EV in 1/3 stop increments), ISO sensitivity (AUTO, High ISO Auto, 80, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600) and white balance (Auto, Daylight, Cloudy, Tungsten, Fluorescent, Fluorescent H, Flash, Underwater, Custom). Auto exposure lock is also available.



Other features include a special wide aspect ratio. This is suitable for displaying your photos on a widescreen television. There is also a histogram available, a self timer (delay 2 or 10 seconds) and continuous shooting at top speeds of either 2 frames per second or 0.8 frames per second. For panoramic type shots there is a special stitch assist mode.



Movies of up to 4GB or one hour in duration can be recorded. The maximum resolution available is 1024 x 768 pixels. At this resolution the maximum frames per second speed is 15. A speed of 30 frames per second can be used at a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. Zoom is available during recording and sound can be captured.



The Powershot G7 can be connected to a compatible printer, television set or computer. All the necessary cables and software are supplied with the camera.



A number of useful accessories are available. These include a case that is waterproof to a depth of 40m (WP-DC11), a 2x tele converter lens to increase the power of the lens (TC-DC58C) and a 0.75 wide converter to increase the wide angle capabilities of the lens (WC-DC58B).
