Posted by on 18th, Jun, 2015 in Blog | 0 comments

I’ve been using GRD since 2005, even before it was officially released in US. I loved that little camera a lot and took close to 30k pictures with it, literally until that camera fall apart and flash burned down.

What makes this camera special over anything else is – Fit,...

2015 Superzoom Camera Roundup

While compact cameras sales continue to slide due to the rise of the smartphone, ‘bridge cameras’ remain popular.

Ten years ago superzooms commonly had 10X and 12X lenses, and in 2015 the average is around 50X. Late...
