Barring any late press releases coming in, we've now concluded our coverage of the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show.
In total, a whopping 66 digital camera models from eleven manufacturers were announced at the show, spanning a range from a high-resolution, interchangeable lens camera right the way down to your choice of toy cameras for the kids. Among the main players in the US digicam market, most point-n-shoot models offered resolutions of twelve or 14 megapixels, with a few ten megapixel models still being announced. Wide angle capability is an increasingly common selling point, and 4x or 5x zooms were to be found on many of the new cameras. A few cameras were to be found offering significantly more zoom range - in one case a full 26x zoom. Most models offered 2.7-inch or 3.0-inch displays, while 3.5-inch displays and touch screens were to be found on several models. One even offered a whopping 3.7" AMOLED touchscreen. Given the huge number of non-camera announcements in our coverage, we felt it might be helpful to provide a final summary of the new camera announcements, along with links to our previews or news coverage as appropriate.
