The Digital Camera nomications are:

Best Digital Camera (Compact)

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX7

Panasonic has created a real beauty with the FX7. Small, stylish and with an accomplished feature set that is sure to appeal to all in the I-must-have-a-sexy-snapper fraternity

The Nikon S1

A super compact addition to the Nikon range. It’s reasonably priced and performed well in a wide range of situations

Fujifilm F10

The Fuji FinePix F10 is a little cracker that provides a simple to use and it’s a good price too

Kodak EasyShare One

Give it a couple of years and this breakthrough product will be the norm and for us we think that can only be a good thing

Pentax Optio 50

Upping the ratio of megapixels to pounds spent, this is a camera that delivers all the features to get you started in digital photography, all at a reasonable price

Best Digital Camera (Prosumer)

Nikon F6

Seems that Nikon haven’t lost their touch in making cameras that make you want to don body armour and charge after the action. Beefy, beautiful & black

Canon 350D

As an entry level DSLR this is great stuff, providing great pictures with little effort in a lightweight body

Nikon D50

The Nikon D50 makes a stunning entry level model for those switching to digital from film or moving up from a digital compact

Epson R-D1 Digital Rangefinder

The R-D1 provides plenty of camera cachet for any photographer thanks to its unique combination of old and modern and superb image quality

Konica Minolta Dynax 5D

Konica Minolta could be accused of coming to the budget D-SLR party a tad late, but now it has made its bow with the Dynax 5D (a slightly tweaked version of the Dynax 7D), it has done so with a little corker of a camera. It’s up agianst Nikon’s D70s, Pentax’s *ist-DL and Canon’s EOS 350D to name a few but it is every bit good as its competition

Seems like Nikon might win both categories. We’ll find out in a month :D
