The Nikon Coolpix L5 provides a generous 7.2 megapixel resolution and produces images with great picture clarity, which can be fully appreciated on the bright 2.5" LCD. The powerful, 38-190mm equivalent Zoom-Nikkor lens ensures matchless compositional freedom, from zooming in for intimate personal portraits to zooming out for expansive outdoor scenes. Furthermore, Lens shift Vibration Reduction (VR) technology allows the user to make the most of 5x zoom lens. Less
The EOS Rebel T2i has an 18.0-megapixel CMOS sensor that captures images with exceptional clarity and tonal range and offers more than enough resolution for big enlargements or crops.

Pros Easy to use, light weight and compact
Cons Nothing, a great camera.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this camera as a replacement for my Olympus D540. Despite the terrible reviews it got I went ahead and purchased it anyway and I am really glad I did. The L5 is easy to use right out of the box, when I turned it on for the first time it walked me through the set up. The L5 has a large... Read full review »

Cons Could use more zoom, but different lenses can be purchased for distant shots.  
Recommended it? Yes

I recently purchased the Canon REBEL T2i / EOS for a family vacation to niagara falls.  I have never owned a professional camera beforehand so I figured it would be difficult to learn but it was really simple.  Beautiful pictures, ample shot settings, and quick changing to different style...

Pros Many different shooting modes<br>Lovely contrast<br>Simple to master
Cons The camera cannot be set down without tipping forward, hard for self-timer.
Recommended it? Yes

I got this product as a gift and could not be happier with it.  I have been taking photography classes in school and became very interested in it, so I decided that I wanted a digital camera as well as a film camera.  I originally thought that it would never stand up to film, but so far...
