Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF6

Panasonic’s Lumix DMC-GF6 represents the latest iteration of the company’s entry-level compact systems cameras. Similar in size and body styling to the GF5, the GF6 has a lot more to offer to enthusiasts. Its resolution has been increased to 16 megapixels and it features the latest Venus Engine image processor, along with integrated Wi-Fi plus near field communication.

FIRST LOOK: Olympus PEN E-P5

The PEN E-P5 is the new ‘top dog’ for the Olympus PEN line of mirrorless compact system cameras. Equipped with the same 16-megapixel sensor and TruePic VI image processing engine as the OM-D E-M5, the E-P5 is a more substantial beast than the E-P3 model it replaces, although its body styling hasn’t changed substantially. But, in line with modern trends, the new camera brings integrated Wi-Fi to the PEN series.

Canon EOS 100D

Canon’s EOS 100D has created a lot of interest since it was announced on 21 March. We published a detailed ‘First Look’ at the key features of the EOS 100D on the day of the announcement but were unable to conduct any performance tests. Having received a production-standard camera, we are now able to apply our full suite of tests and report upon them in this review.

Canon EOS 700D

Announced in mid-March, the EOS 700D replaces the EOS 650D and is positioned at the top of Canon’s entry-level DSLR line-up, beside its lightweight sibling, the EOS 100D, which shares the same image sensor and processor. It’s a relatively minor update to an already successful model so it’s no surprise to find the image sensor and processor chips haven’t changed, which means the same image quality should be delivered.
