Sony NEX-3 review

The 14.2-megapixel NEX-3 is a good option for those seeking a compact camera with interchangeable lenses. It's about £100 cheaper than its big brother, the NEX-5, but there are no serious compromises, and it will probably suit novice shooters well Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX5V review

Sony has unleashed the full force of its boffins' brains on the 10.2-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-HX5V superzoom. An uncanny panorama mode, GPS, super-fast autofocus and a 10x zoom are among the numerous treats on offer. The aggressive noise-reduction software is almost the only downside Read more

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

Canon IXUS 130 review

The 14.1-megapixel IXUS 130 compact camera is a thing of beauty, with a supremely elegant and satisfying design. Highly pocketable and easy to use, it's an extremely practical camera too. Its picture quality is average, but those seeking a small camera with real class should check it out Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-G2 review

The 12.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-G2 is a great Micro Four Thirds camera. It feels very well made and it shoots vivid, sharp pictures. Its heaps of complicated features can make it disorientating to use, but there's plenty to get your teeth stuck into, and the touchscreen is a welcome extra Read more

Samsung PL150 review

The 12.4-megapixel PL150 has a front-mounted screen that comes in very handy when shooting self-portraits and group shots, and filming yourself speaking as part of a pompous video diary. Its picture quality deteriorates at full zoom, but otherwise it's good, and the camera feels well-made Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX70 review

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX70 is a well-made compact camera that delivers good results within the limits of its sensor, but it's too expensive Read more

Ricoh CX3 review

The 10-megapixel CX3 is no ordinary compact superzoom -- it's packed with features aimed at true photo enthusiasts, rather than casual snapshooters. Its picture quality is limited by its small sensor, but its 10.7x zoom range is great, its LCD display is excellent and its 10mm macro mode is fantastic Read more
