Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS11 review
Panasonic's compact cameras are usually solidly built and well designed, and the 14.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-FS11 is no exception. While it's not the most versatile snapper in the world -- its pictures suffer from noise in low light -- it is highly pocketable, very simple to use and pretty affordable too Read more

Pentax Optio M60 review
The Optio range has always stuck to the company's simple, accessible philosophy, and the Pentax Optio M60 is no exception. This 10-megapixel point-and-shoot compact camera is very slim and light, looks very cute and packs a few interesting features, for a very friendly price of less than £100 Read more

Samsung NV40 review
Although there were some problems with purple fringing and image noise, the Samsung NV40's user interface is so good that we'd still recommend it. This 10.5-megapixel snapper's price is so close to the £100 mark that it'd be a crime not to consider it at least Read more

Casio Exilim EX-Z19 review
The Casio Exilim EX-Z19 is head-and-shoulders above most of the cameras in the sub-£100 bargain basement, thanks to excellent build quality, a wealth of tweakable shooting options and decent images. It may be short on specs, features and low-light performance, but for that price you can't go wrong Read more

Nikon Coolpix S52c review
We've often wondered why cameras don't come equipped with wireless transfer as standard, especially as Bluetooth and, increasingly, Wi-Fi are ubiquitous in mobile phones. The Nikon Coolpix S52c bucks this trend -- it's a 9-megapixel snapper that allows for wireless email, upload and back-up of images Read more

Nikon Coolpix P60 review
Do you miss the days when cameras looked like cameras instead of flashy, new-fangled machines? Enter the Nikon Coolpix P60, a compact that makes retro styling cool again. A solid point-and-shoot, it strikes a balance of basic tweakability with general simplicity Read more

Fujifilm FinePix F100fd review
Even as the company's top-end snapper, the Fujifilm FinePix F100fd has much to live up to. With previous F series incarnations yielding amazing results, this 12-megapixel snapper rises to the challenge by taking a firm hand to noise and producing fresh, natural colours Read more

Pentax Optio A40 review
We associate Pentax compacts with cheery, child-like styling, but the top-of-the-range Optio A40 is striving to be taken rather more seriously. Optical image stabilisation, a 12-megapixel resolution, fast performance and excellent image quality all bolster its case -- it's still cute, though Read more
