Fujifilm FinePix S8000fd review
If you don't want to carry around a huge dSLR and a gaggle of lenses, the Fujifilm FinePix S8000fd might be your solution. With its 18x optical zoom equivalent to 27mm, this camera covers a wide area. It's ideal for both portraits and landscapes and leaves behind the hassle of extra lenses Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8 review
Surprisingly compact, but still big enough to shoot comfortably with two hands, the FZ8 offers 7-megapixel resolution, optical image stabilisation, raw capture and a stonking 12x optical zoom -- and its ease of use makes it great for beginners Read more

Fujifilm FinePix S6000fd review
Fujifilm's 6-megapixel S6000fd offers a 10x optical zoom lens, a dedicated processing chip to enable face detection and a wider angle than most superzooms on the market. While the camera lacks optical or mechanical image stabilisation, it yields good results, accurate colours and tonnes of fine detail Read more

Nikon Coolpix S10 review
Nikon's Coolpix S10 is a stylish superzoom camera with an iconic swivel design. It features an excellent 10x optical zoom lens and sports a 6-megapixel CCD sensor with sensor-shift image stabilisation, to help keep that long lens steady. It's an attractive offering and produces good images, but some may find it lacking in advanced controls Read more

Olympus SP-510 UZ review
The 510 UZ looks impressive on paper, with loads of convenient and well-thought-out features, including manual exposure controls and a 10x optical zoom lens, but a lack of optical image stabilisation and unusually high noise mar this camera's outlook Read more

Kodak EasyShare P712 review
Kodak's EasyShare P712 includes a higher level of control than many of its cameras, such as manual white balance, full manual exposure and a trio of custom picture modes. Add a 12x optical zoom lens and you've got an impressive offering for anyone stepping up from a simple point-and-shoot camera Read more

Kodak EasyShare Z650 review
Kodak's EasyShare Z650 superzoom is the budget-conscious version of the more expensive EasyShare Z612, but it does cut corners. It manages a 10x optical zoom lens, in comparison to the 12x zoom of its older sibling, but it unfortunately lacks optical image stablilisation, a noticeable omission on a camera with a lens of this size Read more

Kodak EasyShare Z612 review
The Z612's beautifully sculpted plastic body feels solid and should stand up well to normal wear and tear, its 12x optical Schneider-Kreutznach zoom lens gives you plenty of reach, and the camera's image stabilisation should help keep things steady at the longer end of the zoom. But image quality doesn't quite match that of its peers Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H5 review
Sony's Cyber Shot DSC-H5 sits at the top of the company's current crop of megazoom cameras. Fittingly, it has all the specs you'd expect in a camera of its class, including a large, image-stabilised 12x optical zoom lens, a 3-inch LCD screen, a 7.2-megapixel CCD sensor and a full set of manual controls Read more
