The Nikon Coolpix S1200pj's built-in projector is a neat feature, but still we find the asking price too high. Read more

Nikon Coolpix S4150 review

For anyone after a cheap and cheerful snapper, this is one to consider, but take a look at the Coolpix S6150 before deciding what to buy where a small amount extra buys you a better camera. Read more

Samsung MV800 hands-on

The Samsung MV800 compact camera is packed with features that will help you shoot great self-portraits, but the folding screen and phone-style software make it more than just a toy for narcissists. Read more

Samsung ST6500 review

Although it struggles to differentiate itself from other Samsung models, such as the ST95, the ST6500 is a worthy touchscreen compact camera. It offers generally good picture quality and plenty of tools to play with too. Read more

Pentax Optio S1 review

The Pentax Optio S1 is small, affordable and doesn't skimp on the specs. Picture quality isn't spectacular but those looking for a simple, stylish compact in the sub-£100 price bracket should definitely give it a shot. Read more

Samsung SH100 review

The Samsung SH100 offers the decent performance you'd expect from a camera of its price. The addition of Wi-Fi connectivity makes it more appealing than rival snappers if you often post images online. Read more

Samsung PL120 review

It would be easy to dismiss the Samsung PL120's dual-screen feature as a gimmick but it's actually pretty useful for taking self-portraits. If that's not something you tend to do, though, there are better cameras available at a similar price. Read more

Vivitar ViviCam F529 review

The Vivitar ViviCam F529's price might be appealing, but there's nothing else attractive about either the compact camera itself or the photos it takes. Avoid it as you would a leper with head lice. Read more

Samsung ST90 review

The cheap but not entirely cheerful Samsung ST90 suffers from below-average image quality and an ungainly menu system. There are plenty of superior cameras available for a similar price. Read more
