Casio Exilim EX-Z700 review
Performance and size make the ultracompact Exilim EX-Z700 great for quick snapshots. The comfortable, well-built camera powers up in just 1.2 seconds and can take a shot every 1.5 seconds thereafter.

Pentax Optio E60 review
The Optio E60 is a relatively inexpensive ultra-compact that produces good pictures for a camera in its class. It's also extremely easy to use, thanks to large controls and a reliable auto mode. Limited features, however, mean the E60 isn't one for those who like to experiment Read more
