Sonys DSC-H3: bigger than a compact, but still fits in your pocket As you’d expect, superzooms offer a much longer optical zoom than those found on a standard compact. Whereas most compacts have a paltry 3x zoom - boosted by an often unusable digita...

This 8 megapixel camera has a 10x zoom (38–380mm film equivalent) Zeiss-branded lens in a compact body. Like the Panasonic TZ cameras it fits the long zoom into a body that is smaller than the usual pseudo-SLR superzooms. The Sony is well-made and a...
