DXG-110: A 10 megapixel digital camera for under $200?

A 10 megapixel digital camera for under $200? That’s what the DXG-110 has: 10 Megapixel CCD sensor (with up to 12 Megapixel image resolution), a 2.5″ high-resolution TFT screen, 3X optical/4X digital zoom, 30 FPS of VGA video with sound, digital voice recording function, and of 32MB of built-in internal flash memory which won’t store many of your 10 megapixel photos. The camera also features AutoFocus tracking, Focus Illuminator, and Face Detection. DXG proprietary technology, including Automatic Contrast Management, Advanced Flash Controls, ISO 1600/Antishake, and Dynamic Fill Light

All of this in a small palm-sized camera. Without actually seeing the camera I can’t comment on image quality. But I do know that DXG is not a high quality camera company and nobody expects this product to be any different (from the DXG-538 or DXG-711 digicam). The megapixels is a gimmick and by having more of these you are surely going to lose out on other aspects.

What good is any pixel that isn’t going to record an accurate color? What good is 10 megapixels of noise?

7.1 megapixels DXG-711 digicam

After a slight detour with some PMPs, low-end manufacturer DXG is getting back to its regular game of cheap but wholly unremarkable digital cameras, upping things to a full 7.1 megapixels with its new DXG-711 digicam. Apart from that more than adequate (for most) resolution, the camera will give you a 3x optical zoom, a 2.5-inch LCD display, a built-in voice recorder, and 32MB of internal memory — it’s not clear what expansion options there are, (more…)
