Nikon Coolpix L10 review
The Nikon Coolpix L10 comes from a family of rock-bottom budget cameras, but they don't skim on performance. The L10 did well in our tests, both in shooting time and in keeping the noise levels under control. While this isn't a camera with lots of frills, it does its family proud as a simple point-and-shoot Read more

HP Photosmart M437 review
With one of the smallest price tags on the market, the HP Photosmart M437 looks like an appealing, simple little camera. Its 5-megapixel sensor and 51mm LCD won't turn many heads, but its skimpy £80 price will attract anyone looking for a budget snapper Read more

Canon PowerShot A460 review
This basic 5-megapixel camera comes in at the very low end of Canon's PowerShot A series of digital cameras, but still offers a 4x optical zoom. It's very inexpensive but image quality isn't terrific Read more

Olympus FE-130 review
The Olympus FE-series is a straightforward point-and-shoot range that has no manual settings but includes low price tags and helpful features for those new to photography. The FE-130 is a 5-megapixel digital camera with a 38mm-to-114m (35mm equivalent) optical zoom lens, a 64mm LCD screen and a few intimidating camera settings Read more

Nikon Coolpix L4 review
The £90 Coolpix L4 is the least expensive of Nikon's low-end L-series line of digital cameras. The L4 has a small, 4-megapixel sensor, a 3x optical zoom lens and a handful of scene preset modes but few high-end settings. Though slow and not very versatile, it produces some pretty good pictures for its budget price Read more

Nikon Coolpix L3 review
The Nikon Coolpix L3 is the midrange member of Nikon's simple, inexpensive L-series digital cameras. The 5-megapixel camera sports a 3x optical zoom lens, a handful of useful scene modes and a small price tag -- and this little shooter produces good-looking images for the price Read more

Nikon Coolpix L2 review
The 6-megapixel Nikon Coolpix L2 offers only the bare necessities for picture taking but, for its class, delivers excellent photos that require minimal effort. The Coolpix L2 squarely targets casual photographers though, and more experienced users may be frustrated by the camera's lack of controls Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ3 review
The DMC-LZ3 features a 5-megapixel resolution, 6x optical zoom, optical image stabilisation and numerous ways to control image capture. It fares moderately well in bright environments, but poor performance and average photo quality lessen the allure of this attractively priced model Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S600 review
The chunky DSC-S600 offers remarkable flexibility despite its bargain price. Its 6-megapixel resolution and moderately wide 31mm-to-93mm lens, in conjunction with decent low-light photos and extended shutter-speed latitude in moderate light, combine to produce a versatile point-and-shoot camera Read more
