About Camera Labs
Camera Labs was launched in December 2005 as an online source of unbiased digital
camera and lens reviews. On this site you'll find detailed reports and video tours of the latest
digital photography products, along with workshops and features explaining how to make the most of
them. Whether you're upgrading your camera, considering a new lens, or joining
the world of digital photography, Camera Labs is here to help you make the right
choice.
Camera Labs is edited by Gordon Laing, a British technology writer and former
Editor of Personal Computer World magazine in the UK. Gordon is a Personal Computer
World columnist and a regular contributor to
T3 and other publications in the UK. He holds a degree in Physics from the
University of Kent, has been a photographer for over two decades and professionally reviewed
digital cameras since the Apple QuickTake 100 back in 1995. His first book, Digital
Retro, an illustrated history of home computers in the 80s, was published
in October 2004 by Ilex Press and Sybex Books.
Camera Labs has grown steadily since launch and in April 2008 served 3,008,872 page impressions over 567,517 visits. As of April 2008, our video reviews have been watched by over 2.7 Million people.

The testing and reviewing undertaken at Camera Labs is a very time consuming
process. If you find our reports useful and would like to support Camera Labs, please check the latest prices by clicking the store logos in the Pricegrabber boxes at the bottom of each review page - or the flags to the left. And when you’re ready to buy, please consider purchasing from one of our affiliate stores. You pay exactly the same price, but we receive a small referral fee which keeps us up and running. It's a win-win which funds our reviewing and testing
process and ensures you find the best price for your new lens or camera.
