Kodak PlaySport review

Small, simple and submersible to 3m, Kodak's PlaySport keeps the price down without dropping the image quality too far. It has its share of flaws but it's great fun to use. Read more

In the right circumstances, the Canon Legria HF M31's picture quality can easily impress. But poor low-light performance and a sorely misjudged control system let down this otherwise decent camcorder Read more

Sony Handycam HDR-CX550VE review

The Sony Handycam HDR-CX550VE camcorder has a number of unique and unusual selling points but, while its photo and video performance is strong, you may be paying for features you don't actually need Read more

Sanyo Xacti VPC-CG100 review

The Xacti VPC-CG100 is a relatively cheap and stylish 1080p camcorder that also takes 14-megapixel photos. Neither its video or photo quality will make you cry tears of joy, but it's not a bad compromise for people who don't want to carry two devices around Read more

Panasonic HDC-SD600 review

Not all of us have a spare grand to splash out on a camcorder, and we don't all need the full manual controls offered by Panasonic's top of the range models -- enter the new HDC-SD600. It promises 1080/50p progressive high-definition quality video and 14.2-megapixel stills at a more affordable price Read more

Flip Video MinoHD (2nd gen) review

The second-generation MinoHD mini-camcorder shoots the same impressive 720p video as its predecessor. But it also offers a sleeker body, more storage space and an HDMI port on the bottom for connecting it to a high-definition TV. It's fantastically easy to use and marvellously pocketable too Read more

Samsung HMX-R10 review

The HMX-R10 is a respectable compact camcorder. Its 1080p video can be jittery, but it delivers decent performance at a 720p resolution and is brimming with shooting options. For those underwhelmed by pocket camcorders, like Flip Video's offerings, it could well fit the bill Read more

Panasonic HDC-TM700 review

The HDC-TM700 will appeal to a limited audience due to its high price, but it's truly packed with features and its 1080/50p video is often stunning. You'll need to ensure your playback and editing hardware and software is up to the task of handling the camcorder's raw footage, though Read more

Sony Bloggie CM5 review

Larger than some rivals, the 1080p Bloggie CM5 mini-camcorder nevertheless compares well to its competitors in terms of picture quality. It also offers a useful feature set, including a 5x optical zoom, swivelling display, memory-card slot and the ability to shoot impressive close-ups Read more

Sony Handycam DCR-SX30E review

The Handycam DCR-SX30E camcorder is a good buy for those reluctant to make the leap to HD just yet. It offers a good feature set and decent standard-definition video quality for a reasonable outlay, while being far more configurable than similarly priced HD models Read more
