Canon IXUS 300 HS review

The IXUS 300 HS is pricey for a compact camera, but it's a pocket-sized powerhouse. Its pictures are great, even at high ISOs, and its super-slow-motion movie mode is a real hoot. Its high-speed shooting modes are also decent. Overall, it's a very good camera Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 review

The 10.2-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 super-slim camera doesn't look particularly rugged, but it can take a fair old beating. It's also versatile and packed with useful and clever features, while its image quality isn't bad either. In a crowded marketplace, it really stands out Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ10 review

The 12.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-TZ10 is probably the world's best superzoom, improving on its excellent predecessors by adding GPS and manual exposure modes. Panasonic's array of 'intelligent' image-processing technologies is tiresome, but this is a seriously impressive photographic tool Read more

Samsung WB600 review

Combining a long, 15x zoom range and consistently good images, the 12-megapixel Samsung WB600 is an excellent compact superzoom. It's also one of the cheapest out there. Although not without its flaws, it's worth seriously considering if you're after a new snapper Read more

Olympus Pen E-PL1 review

In the 12.3-megapixel Pen E-PL1, Olympus has finally made a Micro Four Thirds camera for the masses. It's cheaper and more plasticky than its predecessors, the Pen E-P1 and Pen E-P2, but it's actually superior. It offers better handling, more versatility, and really excellent picture quality Read more

Samsung NX10 review

The 14.6-megapixel NX10 is an impressive alternative to Micro Four Thirds cameras from Olympus and Panasonic. It works well, takes great pictures with the 18-55mm kit lens, and offers excellent value for money. As a smaller and lighter alternative to a digital SLR, it's well worth a perusal Read more

Canon EOS 550D review

The 18-megapixel Canon EOS 550D is a very impressive digital SLR. Its photo quality hasn't moved on massively from that of its predecessor, the EOS 500D, but its high-definition videos are excellent, and its high-ISO performance is exceptional. It's pricey though Read more

Samsung ST1000 review

The 12.2-megapixel ST1000 is a classy camera, with a great design and top-notch, ultra-high-resolution touchscreen. The real stars of the show, though, are its Wi-Fi, bluetooth and GPS features. We've seen wireless cameras before, but Samsung's finally shown how it should be done Read more

Canon PowerShot S90 review

The 10-megapixel PowerShot S90 is brilliant. At last, we have a compact camera that really does have dSLR-style features, really does approach dSLR image quality and really will fit in your pocket. As well as offering a straightforward interface, it's extremely well-built and elegant to boot Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 review

Part of a new breed of camera that aims to combine the image quality and features of a digital SLR with the convenience of a compact, the 12.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-GF1 is a tantalising proposition. It costs a packet, but its photos are excellent and its build quality is really something special Read more
