Sigma provided most of the details for its new DP2x compact camera when it announced it back in February, but it left out two key ones: pricing and availability. It’s now finally (mostly) come clean on both those counts, however, and announced that the high-end compact will run $800 and be available in “late April.” As for the camera itself, you’ll get a 14-megapixel FOVEON X3 sensor that’s said to be twelve times larger than those found in similarly-sized cameras, along with a fixed 24.2mm F2.8 lens, full manual controls with RAW image support, and an new AF algorithm that promises “high-speed” autofocus.

The folks at Ricoh have dependable predictability down pat, and the CX5′s specs are, for the most part, nothing new. We’ve talked up the CX line of compact superzooms since the release of the CX1 almost two years ago, and we’ve watched the company fine-tune the already impressive camera with each new edition. Every incarnation of the CX series is just a tad better than the last: you might recall the CX4 didn’t make any big changes, either

Samsung just introduced a slew of new cameras at CES earlier this month, but it’s now already back with another batch, which consists of five low to mid-range point-and-shoots in its ST series. Those begin with the $100 ST30 model, and move on up to the ST65, ST90 and touchscreen-equipped ST95, before topping out with the $230 ST6500 (pictured above), which packs a 16 megapixel sensor, a 5x optical zoom, 720p video recording, and the same touchscreen interface as the ST95.

Sony announced a heap of new Cyber-shot cameras earlier this week, and after spying the entire line posing Miss America-style at Sony’s CES booth, we decided to go hands on.
