Review of the Benq DC X600

Benq DC X600

BenQ may not currently be a household name, but it keeps releasing digital cameras with surprisingly broad specifications. From a looks point of view, this is a sleek, slim, metal-clad model that resembles quite a few other cameras. The LCD occupies most of the back of the camera with just a five-way controller and four other buttons on the back. Its lens is a 3x Pentax lens that slides in and out smoothly, albeit a bit noisily from the brushed metal detail piece on the camera’s front.
