Your television is completely out of date, even if you just bought it in December of last year. Why? Because 3D home televisions are finally here. The TC-P50VT20 is the first 3D model from Panasonic, and it manages to simultaneously impress and frustrate (and not just because it renders our old, 2D TVs obsolete).http://reviewed.com/product/Toshiba/42ZV650U.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Toshiba/42ZV650U.htmThu, 04 Mar 2010 16:01:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Toshiba Regza 42ZV650U ($1299 MSRP) is a 42-inch, 1080p LCD television. While not necessarily cheap, you get a fair amount for your money. The 42ZV650U is filled to the brim with options for fine-tuning your color, motion, noise reduction, and more. It\'s a big geek fest inside, if that\'s your game. If not, the TV works well enough straight out of the box (though we recommend a few tiny tweaks that we\'ll explain later).http://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/Lumix-DMC-FZ35.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/Lumix-DMC-FZ35.htmMon, 01 Mar 2010 16:59:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Richard Baguley)http://reviewed.com/product/Kodak/EasyShare-Z950.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Kodak/EasyShare-Z950.htmMon, 01 Mar 2010 15:28:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Richard Baguley)http://reviewed.com/product/Canon/G11.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Canon/G11.htmMon, 01 Mar 2010 12:18:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Richard Baguley)http://reviewed.com/product/Sony/DSC-TX7.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Sony/DSC-TX7.htmMon, 01 Mar 2010 10:49:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Richard Baguley)http://reviewed.com/product/Sony/KDL-46EX700.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Sony/KDL-46EX700.htmThu, 25 Feb 2010 12:19:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Mark Brezinski)The Sony KDL-46EX700 is a 46-inch, 1080p LED LCD. The TV currently retails for about $1700, which is very expensive for a 46-inch model, but one look at its online features makes its high price seem much more appropriate. This 2010 model isn\'t particularly dissimilar from last year\'s in terms of additional features, but it does offer some significant improvements to picture quality.http://reviewed.com/product/Kodak/Zi8.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Kodak/Zi8.htmTue, 16 Mar 2010 15:18:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Jeremy Stamas)The Zi8 is an interesting camcorder from Kodak that has a number of unique features for an ultracompact model. The camcorder has Full HD recording capability, can take 5-megapixel still images, and includes a 3.5mm external microphone input. The Zi8 also has a digital stabilization system that can be turned on and off, as well as a few controls--like face detection--that are not commonly found on an ultracompact camcorder.http://reviewed.com/product/Canon/HF-S21.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Canon/HF-S21.htmTue, 23 Feb 2010 09:40:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Jeremy Stamas)The HF S21 is the latest flagship camcorder from Canon. This new Vixia is loaded with features and controls, offers impeccable Full HD video performance, and has a robust design that makes it ideal for a student filmmaker or semi-professional videographer.http://reviewed.com/product/Sylvania/LC321SSX.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Sylvania/LC321SSX.htmThu, 18 Feb 2010 12:34:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Sylvania LC321SSX (approx. $329) is a budget LCD HDTV. With a resolution limited to 720p, it\'s certainly not the ideal match for your shiny, new Blu-Ray player. Little did we know quite how incompatible is was. All budget TVs have some trade-offs, so you\'ll want to read closely before you make the buy on this model.http://reviewed.com/product/VIZIO/VW32L.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/VIZIO/VW32L.htmFri, 05 Feb 2010 17:21:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Vizio VW32L is a 32-inch LCD television, an entry-level model without much style or grace. The display is limited to 720p, but with a very reasonable price tag of approximately $389, it\'s easier to swallow the concessions.http://reviewed.com/product/Casio/EX-G1.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Casio/EX-G1.htmWed, 03 Feb 2010 11:11:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Robin Liss)The Casio Exilim EX-G1 is both beauty and the beast: it\'s a small, thin camera that can fit into a pocket, but also one that can shoot in extreme conditions. But while this camera can take a lickin\', but keep on clickin\', we were not that impressed with the quality of the images it captures.http://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/PN50B430.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/PN50B430.htmSun, 30 Aug 2009 17:07:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Samsung PN50B430 is an entry-level plasma TV. Why entry level? It\'s a 50-inch display that costs just under $1000 ($999 MSRP), which sounds too good to be true. In a way, it is. The TV only has a 720p resolution and the performance is mediocre. Yes, you get a lot of screen real estate for your dollar, but be aware of the real costs.http://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/UN46B8500XFXZA.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/UN46B8500XFXZA.htmWed, 25 Nov 2009 14:20:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Samsung UN46B8500, a 46-inch, 1080p LCD TV, is a top-notch performer with an ultra-thin profile and LED-backlighting with local dimming, hence its hefty $3599 price tag. Also included in that price, presumably, is the ability to access streaming content through the LAN port. But the poor offerings and maddeningly awkward interface make the online content all but useless.http://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/UN55B7100.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/UN55B7100.htmTue, 29 Sep 2009 10:40:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Samsung UN46B7100 is a 46-inch, 1080p plasma TV. It\'s primary allure is the incredibly slender, 1.2-inch thickness, internet streaming content, and the LED-backlit screen, which are meant to deliver deeper black levels than traditional CCFL-backlit LCD screens. All this cutting edge tech doesn\'t come cheap andndash;the UN46B7100 comes in at $2800. You pay for style, but man do you get style!http://reviewed.com/product/Sony/Bravia-KDL-40W5100.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Sony/Bravia-KDL-40W5100.htmSun, 30 Aug 2009 16:07:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Sony KDL-40W5100 is a 40-inch, 1080p LCD television with enough bells and whistles to legitimize its $1500 price tag. The big bonus is internet connectivity, which opens up the huge world of Sony\'s streaming media. The TV\'s overall performance is just okay, but the multimedia features make it a good hub for a home theater system.http://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/HMX-R10.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/HMX-R10.htmTue, 15 Dec 2009 10:23:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Jeremy Stamas)With the HMX-R10, Samsung has created a compact HD camcorder that doesn\'t follow the conventional design for a consumer camcorder. The R10 records full HD video to SD/SDHC memory cards, has a 9-megapixel still photo capability, and offers a tilted lens design that makes for a completely unique handling experience. It\'s a mid-range camcorder with a reasonable MSRP of just under $500, but it can be found for around $400 if you shop around.http://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/HDC-TM300.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/HDC-TM300.htmFri, 13 Nov 2009 11:22:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Jeremy Stamas)The Panasonic HDC-TM300 is the flash memory sister-model to the equally impressive HDC-HS300 (which records to an internal hard drive). These two top-of-the-line models from Panasonic are stellar camcorders, and the HDC-TM300, which includes 32GB of internal memory, was recently awarded CamcorderInfo.com\'s 2009 Camcorder of the Year award. The TM300 combines a strong video performance with a comfortable body design and a load of manual controls to create one of the best all-around consumer camcorders we\'ve seen. With a $1299 price tag the HDC-TM300 may be hard on the wallet, but if you\'re in the market for a top-notch camcorder, it is the best of the bunch.http://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/DMC-ZS3.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/DMC-ZS3.htmThu, 29 Oct 2009 13:43:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Richard Baguley)The Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3 packs a lot of features into its small case: 10-megapixel resolution, a 12x zoom and high definition video capture. And we found that it has the performance to match this feature set, with sharp images and accurate color.http://reviewed.com/product/VIZIO/VL420M.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/VIZIO/VL420M.htmTue, 27 Oct 2009 14:47:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Vizio VL420M is a 42-inch, 1080p LCD television. Retailing for around $800, it\'s rather a good deal for a TV that large, but the pocketbook savings come at a cost. The VL420M is hardly a champion performer. It\'s a model designed to stretch your dollars. It\'s not hard on the eye, and all the necessary jacks and ports are in place, but be sure you know what you\'re buying before you go to the cash register.
