Canon PowerShot A630 review

Canon's PowerShot A630 is an 8-megapixel version of its older sibling, the 10-megapixel A640, with an identical design. It's not a great shooter in low light, but otherwise it performs well for its class, with photographer-friendly manual settings and colourful, crisp images. If you're after a solid all-round point-and-shoot, you won't be disappointed Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 900 Ti review

Stylish without being inconvenient or awkward, the 10-megapixel Canon Digital IXUS 900 Ti is just the right size to fit into a jacket pocket. It produces very solid photos with nicely saturated colours. But while it's heavy on style, it's pretty light on features that its siblings offer Read more

Canon PowerShot A640 review

With lots of manual settings and a reasonably low price tag, Canon's PowerShot A640 looks appealing. Though it lacks the flexibility of higher-end cameras and the stylish portability of more compact shooters, the 10-megapixel A640 is a smart, fully featured camera with some surprising benefits -- like a fold-out LCD Read more

Kodak EasyShare C875 review

Kodak succeeds in getting straight to the point with its EasyShare C875, the high-end member of the EasyShare C series of snapshot cameras. This solid 8-megapixel point-and-shoot doesn't have any outrageous gimmicks, but it produces good pictures and offers plenty of advanced controls Read more

Olympus SP-320 review

With Olympus's 7-megapixel models, the SP-320 and the SP-310, the company caters to the casual photographer who wants a camera with more manual options than are offered by entry-level point-and-shoot models. The only difference between the two is the digital image stabilisation available on the Olympus SP-320 Read more

Casio Exilim EX-Z1000 review

Casio's Exilim EX-Z1000 is the 10-megapixel follow up to the 8-megapixel Exilim EX-Z850, but with this model it's a case of swings and roundabouts. It forgoes the optical viewfinder, the manual exposure controls and the shooting flexibility of the EX-Z850 in favour of a 16:9-aspect ratio, a 71mm LCD and a more refined interface Read more

Olympus FE-130 review

The Olympus FE-series is a straightforward point-and-shoot range that has no manual settings but includes low price tags and helpful features for those new to photography. The FE-130 is a 5-megapixel digital camera with a 38mm-to-114m (35mm equivalent) optical zoom lens, a 64mm LCD screen and a few intimidating camera settings Read more

Olympus FE-115 review

The Olympus FE-115 is all about simplicity. This clunky 5-megapixel shooter sports a 3x optical zoom lens, seven shooting modes and not much else. It's inexpensive and takes decent pictures, but does suffer from extremely slow performance and lack of basic image settings -- it's a good idea to look around before you buy Read more

Kodak EasyShare C643 review

The step-up model from the EasyShare C533, the equally basic Kodak EasyShare C643 sports a 3x optical zoom lens, a 61mm LCD screen and a 6-megapixel CCD. It also finds room on its body for an optical viewfinder, very useful in bright light situations, but it is let down considerably by its image quality Read more

Kodak EasyShare C533 review

The Kodak EasyShare C533 is a basic budget camera that doesn't pretend to be otherwise. This 5-megapixel point-and-shoot produces decent photos and responds quickly, but its flimsy-feeling build quality, 46mm LCD screen and minimalist feature set keep the C533 firmly in the bargain bin Read more
