If you thought Kodak's EasyShare C813 was a bore, get a load of this. Thankfully, the Voigtlaender Vitoret 73 does boast one of the more exotic names in the digital camera industry, so yeah, there's that. As for specs, you'll find a 7-megapixel sensor, 3-inch LCD monitor, 320 x 240 resolution video mode, 22MB of free internal storage, an SD expansion slot, 3x optical zoom, red-eye reduction, PictBridge support and USB connectivity. As we've come to expect with this firm, you'll find yourself wondering who would actually hand over €149 ($219) for such a paltry set of features, but apparently its marketing team knows a thing or two that we don't.

Nevertheless, Germany's own has rebadged the DM6365 and slapped a Vito 65 logo on it, but didn't bother tweaking the specs. Touting a 3.48- x 2.17- x 0.75-inch enclosure, this compact features a played-out six-megapixel CCD sensor, 2.5-inch LCD monitor, 32MB of internal storage, SD slot, 30fps movie mode, 3x optical zoom, built-in red-eye reduction, USB 2.0 connectivity, and PictBridge compatibility. Per usual, Voigtlaender manages to pack a humdrum feature set into a fairly overpriced package, with the Vito 65 coming in at a less-than-attractive €199 ($265).

The Voigtlaender Vitolux XM 7.0 is a very run-of-the-mill 7-megapixel shooter, sporting a relatively compact 3.78- x 2.32- x 0.79-inch silver enclosure, three-inch monitor, 32MB of internal storage, SD slot, MPEG4 movie mode, and a thoroughly average 3x optical zoom. It also boasts USB 2.0 connectivity, AV out (NTSC / PAL-friendly), and PictBridge support. While the ho hum list of luxuries isn't exactly impressive, this wouldn't be a half bad backup if the price was right -- unfortunately, that's far from the case, as Voigtlaender somehow expects folks to throw down €299 ($384) to snag this "me too" offering.

The German-based company's Virtus D8 digicam is about as forgettable as they come, sporting no standout features and a long list of mediocre specs. The only thing mildy impressive about the 8.1 megapixel camera is its compact size -- and of course its outlandish name. Essentially like every other average compact, you'll get a 2.5-inch display screen, 3x optical zoom, meager ISO settings, a 640 x 480 video mode, and an SD slot that only accepts cards up to 1GB. More realistically, we presume this is just another digicam with too many megapixels for its own good, and priced at around $430, we don't envision many enthusiasts rushing out to grab such an underwhelming offering.
