Olympus mju 1050SW review
The Olympus mju 1050SW is especially pretty for being waterproof, shockproof and freezeproof. It's quite astonishing that such an elegant camera should turn out to be so tough, but its small size and slippery finish limit its usefulness in the extreme environments it's so good at surviving Read more

Nikon Coolpix S3000 review
The 12-megapixel Coolpix S3000 is a good little compact camera for a budget price. If you want cutting-edge tech, look elsewhere, but, if you want a pocket-friendly snapper that's easy to use, attractive and capable of taking decent photos, it may well fit the bill. Its 4x wide-angle zoom is handy too Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZX3 review
The 14.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-ZX3 is a great little camera that packs an 8x super-wide-angle zoom into an impressively compact body. Panasonic's gone overboard with the 'intelligent' features, but it's capable of taking some good photos and can record 720p movies too Read more

Olympus mju Tough-6010 review
Ernest Shackleton would probably have been mightily taken with the shockproof, waterproof and freezeproof mju Tough-6010. Its picture quality isn't going to blow anybody's mind, but it looks smart, offers good value for money, and can withstand a fair degree of punishment Read more

Canon PowerShot A3100 IS review
The 12.1-megapixel PowerShot A3100 IS with 4x zoom makes a good first impression. Its pictures and feature set won't induce violent spasms of excitement, but its smart metal body, satisfying dimensions and straightforward controls are points in its favour Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZX1 review
The 12.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-ZX1 offers an 8x super-wideangle zoom in a compact body, and manages to produce clearer and sharper pictures than the majority of its rivals. It also offers solid build quality and straightforward controls. As such, buying it is almost a no-brainer Read more

Olympus mju 9000 review
The 12-megapixel mju 9000 packs a 10x optical zoom into a body no bigger than that of the average compact camera, making it unusually pocket-friendly. It's also attractively finished, responsive and delivers good results, although it has a tendency towards overexposure 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

Casio Exilim EX-Z1 review
The 10-megapixel Exilim EX-Z1 super-slim camera with 3x zoom boasts a sleek and attractive design and comes in a range of appealing colours. Its pictures won't blow your mind, but it does benefit from a widescreen LCD display, which is useful for taking reasonably high-resolution 848x480-pixel movies Read more

Olympus mju Tough-6000 review
The 10-megapixel mju Tough-6000 is a perfectly normal-looking, pocket-sized compact that just happens to be able to survive extraordinary amounts of abuse. Happily, its rugged nature doesn't detract from its photo quality or practicality either, making the 6000 extremely difficult to dislike Read more
