Digital Camera Resource Page posted a review of the Kodak Easyshare V570 - they wrote - 'As soon as you see the Kodak EasyShare V570 ($399) with its lens cover opened you know that this is not just another compact camera. Yes, this camera has two lenses! There's a fixed focal length 23 mm lens on the top, and a more traditional 39 - 117 mm zoom lens on the bottom. In addition to having two lenses, the V570 has two 5 Megapixel CCD sensors, as well -- one for each lens. The camera switches between CCDs instantly.'

Digital Camera Reviews : Canon Powershot A620 Review at Digital Camera Reviews

Digital Camera Reviews reviews the Canon Powershot A620 and writes - "I highly recommend this camera. Its quick operation and image quality provide a camera that will not disappoint. This camera is a great choice for someone who wants top-notch quality, wants some manual/creative controls and someone that doesn't mind a camera larger than an ultra-compact."

Steve's Digicams reviews the Canon Powershot A620 and writes 'These are some of the most well designed models I have dealt with. They are not your typical compact consumer models, yet they are small enough to be carried in a coat pocket or purse. When I first saw the A620 and A610, it seemed like they were a cross between the consumer A95 and the prosumer G6 . After working with the A620, I can now confirm that this is the case. Its high-end features speak of "only the best", while its more affordable price says "I'm easy on the wallet".'

The Imaging Resource reviews the Canon Powershot A620 and has this to say - 'With a silver-metallic case and stylish shape, the A620 is an impressive step up from Canon's A95, which also started out at $400 when it was introduced a little over a year ago. But the A620's improvements are far more than skin deep, starting out with its 7.1-megapixel CCD--a significant jump from the A95's 5-megapixels.'

Digital Photography Review has a review of the Canon Powershot A620. They write - 'In August 2005 Canon announced two new A series digital cameras, the five megapixel A610 and seven megapixel A620 on test here. Both cameras replace the long-running, and very popular A95, and join the A520 as affordable, well-specified compacts for the enthusiast user on a budget. The A620 certainly looks promising on paper; newly kitted out with the fast DIGIC II processor and a 2.0-inch vari-angle LCD, it has a wealth of shooting options and 4x optical zoom.''

Digital Camera Resource Page has a detailed review of the Canon Powershot A620. Here's a snippet - 'The A620 performs very well for a lower priced camera. It starts up in just 1.2 seconds, it focuses quickly, and shutter lag was not a problem. Shot-to-shot and playback speeds were also very good. In low light situations the camera focused accurately thanks to its AF-assist lamp. The PowerShot A620 shines in other areas as well. Its movie and continuous shooting modes are very good, assuming that you're using a high speed SD card. With that you can record up to 1GB of continuous VGA video with sound, or keep taking photos at 1.9 frames/second until the memory card is full. If you use high power NiMH batteries the A620 beats all of the competition in terms of battery life -- too bad Canon doesn't include any with the camera!'
