I've generally focused (no pun intended) on standardized test photos on this site, as that's the only way you can really get valid comparisons of image quality between cameras.
A lot of readers have asked for more samples of random photos taken with each camera though, to show how they perform with more "natural" subjects. I've been working on this, assisted by my friend Gibbs Frazeur, a practicing photojournalist, writer-helper gal Stephanie Boozer (a former wedding photographer), and my son Chris (who turns out to have an excellent "eye," far better than my own). We've been busily shooting "gallery" photos with a pile of cameras over the last couple of months, and have now finally managed to post the majority of them to the respective review pages.
Here's a list of cameras with newly-added photo galleries: Canon PowerShot A70 Canon PowerShot A300 Canon PowerShot G3 Canon PowerShot S45 Canon PowerShot S230 Digital ELPH Canon PowerShot S400 Digital ELPH Fuji FinePix 2650 Fuji FinePix 3800 Kodak EasyShare LS443 Minolta DiMAGE Xt Nikon Coolpix 2100 Olympus C-730 Ultra Zoom Olympus C-4000 Zoom Olympus D-560 Zoom Olympus Stylus 300 Olympus Stylus 400 Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P8 Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P72 Sony MVC-CD350
And we've got more coming besides, a total of about another dozen cameras that have had their gallery photos shot, and just need to be uploaded and linked into their reviews. Check it out!
