The Intuos4 is the latest in a long line of successful Wacom drawing tablets. With every evolution and redesign, users expect more from their creative applications. The Wacom Intuos4 lives up to these expectations. This is a simple yet super-efficient piece of design hardware and it’s damn sexy, too. The drawing tablet radiates style with its slick streamline black shell, high-gloss ExpressKey panel as well as blue LED lighting. -Julie Easton

You’ve probably heard me talk about the Hoodman HoodLoupe in the past and what a great tool it is for shooting outdoors. By sealing the LCD into a light tight environment, the LCD screen can then be easily seen even in the bright sun of the beach. It’s something that I try not to leave at home if I know I am going to be shooting outdoors. Now I have an even greater incentive for keeping it close by, in any shooting situation. It helps me see the screen with my old eyes. -Jeff Revell

Given that Sony’s Cyber-shot DSC-W230 ($199.99 direct) has the same 12.1-megapixel “Super HAD” CCD image sensor and “Carl Zeiss” premium lens as the $299 Cyber-shot DSC-T90, you’d expect them to produce pictures of identical quality. But that’s not the case: In terms of image sharpness, the T90 blows the W230 out of the water—a difference that might make it worth the extra cash. -PJ Jacobowitz

It would seem that both photographers and patrons of photography could benefit from reading interviews about photography with both prominent photographers and purchasers of photography. That is the premise of Image Makers, Image Takers. -Conrad J. Obregon

Canon’s PowerShot SD990 IS digital camera replaces the company’s previous PowerShot SD950 IS model as the flagship of the Digital ELPH lineup. The Canon SD990 retains the same 1/1.7-inch CCD image sensor size, but jams in more pixels to take the camera from 12.1 to 14.7 megapixels, along with upgrading the previous model’s DIGIC III processor to a DIGIC 4 type that allows for servo-AF tracking. -Mike Tomkins

Sony announced its new 50mm ƒ/1.8 prime lens in May 2009, designed specifically for APS-C sensors. When mounted on such a camera, the lens will provide an equivalent field of view of 75mm.

The lens takes 49mm filters and does not ship with a lens hood (nor does one appear to be available for this lens). It will be available for approximately $150. -Andrew Alexander

I hankered for one of these for just about ever but I never really understood just how good it was until I got one

When you shoot at F1.2 with this baby it elevates your work to a different level. -Drew Gardner

Casio continues to demonstrate that when it comes to cramming as much camera as possible into the smallest space possible, nobody does it better. With the exception of a couple of remarkable high-speed super-zoom models, the company’s Exilim camera range is full of tiny high-performance ultra-compact cameras that are usually of high quality, and are nearly always good value for money. It continues to surprise me that their market share is so low. -Cliff Smith

Samsung did not really stand out during Photokina 2008. For Samsung, this huge 2-year event, giving the visitor the opportunity to smell, taste and see photography all around, seemed to be a show where only the Samsung prototype camera (now called Samsung WB500) was showcased. Surprising at the very least; while Samsung considers itself a strong market conqueror. Six months later, during PMA 2009 in Las Vegas, I did not only come across a full version of the prototype in question; it turned out that at the same time, an entirely new series of compact cameras has been introduced, accompanied by the official introduction of the Samsung NX concept. The latter is a future hybrid digital camera with a so-called DX image sensor. We expect more to be revealed this summer. -LetsGoDigital
