Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS25 review

The 12-megapixel Lumix DMC-FS25 provides the chance to get all the usual Panasonic tech in a cheaper, but still very decent, package. Detail in its pictures lacks bite, but the results are still good, and the design is robust and efficient, making for a worthwhile compact camera overall Read more

Sigma DP2 review

The DP2 is how cameras used to be -- a box with a lens, and just enough controls to let you get the picture you want. And the picture quality is excellent, offering clarity that's on a par with 10- to 12-megapixel digital SLRs and streets ahead of any other compact. You'll have to fork out for it, though Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 990 IS review

It's hard to tell exactly where in the line the 12.1-megapixel Canon Digital IXUS 990 IS sits, but it bears all the usual IXUS hallmarks: an elegant design and straightforward controls combined with hi-tech automation and decent picture quality. An excellent LCD screen is a welcome bonus Read more

Canon PowerShot D10 review

The 12-megapixel PowerShot D10 adds a welcome splash of style to the ruggedised camera market. Although it's not as shockproof as some of its rivals and the basic 3x zoom is nothing to shout about, it's waterproof to an impressive 10m and the lens is unusually sharp for this class of camera Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W270 review

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W270's specs certainly gives this compact a fighting chance among its fierce competition. From its 5x wideangle zoom, automatic scene detection, HD movie mode, plus all kinds of face detection, this slim snapper could be one to keep handy Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 110 IS review

The Digital IXUS 110 IS isn't the smallest compact camera on the market, but you won't find many that are better-looking. Boasting an understated design and elegant control layout, it also shoots excellent 720p videos, sports a good screen and offers useful face-detection capability Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX40 review

When you start using the 12-megapixel Lumix DMC-FX40, you'll realise why it's pricey -- the build quality and design are outstanding. Picture definition could be better, but the FX40 comes pretty close to being the perfect travel camera, thanks to a very versatile 5x super-wideangle lens Read more

Samsung WB500 review

The 10-megapixel WB500 compact superzoom with an ultra-wideangle 10x zoom ticks all the boxes, has no serious flaws and represents good value for money. There are more exciting cameras on the market, but the WB500 is well worth a look, offering good image quality and design Read more

Ricoh CX1 review

The 9-megapixel CX1 looks smart, produces good-quality images and offers plenty of features to get your teeth into. Its high-dynamic-range mode isn't perfect, but the CX1 offers excellent 4 frames per second full-resolution shooting, and its high-resolution LCD screen is great too Read more

Nikon Coolpix S620 review

The 12-megapixel Coolpix S620 is compact, responsive and pleasant to use, providing a better overall experience than its big brother, the S630. The smile- and blink-detection modes are slightly confusing, but this speedy camera is great for taking impromptu shots, and an appealing device overall Read more
