Olympus SP-570 UZ review

The Olympus SP-570 UZ is an extremely promising superzoom, with the widest optical zoom range of any compact camera at 20x, plus built-in image stabilisation, a 1cm macro mode, full manual controls and the ability to shoot at an incredible ISO 6,400 -- and it's got a very tempting price tag too Read more

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

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

Olympus mju 9010 review

Olympus has provided the mju 9010 with a 10x optical zoom and an HD movie mode, but they aren't its only tricks. It also has an in-camera panorama mode, 2GB of internal storage and a set of 'Magic Filters'. It looks a pretty good deal compared to other compact superzooms at this price, too 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

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

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

Olympus mju Tough-3000 review

The 12-megapixel mju Tough-3000 compact camera offers a good combination of features, durability, convenience and affordability. As with most rugged cameras, you won't get exhibition-quality prints from the 3000, but adrenaline junkies should give it a perusal Read more

Best cheap cameras

You don't have to sell a lung and a kidney from each of your offspring in order to afford a camera that can take good pictures. There are plenty of decent, cheap snappers around, and, if you're prepared to make a couple of compromises, you can come away with a bargain. Read more

Olympus mju 7000 review

The 12-megapixel mju 7000 isn't going to make anyone wet their pants with excitement, but it's a capable snapper nonetheless. With a 7x zoom range, it offers serious telephoto capability in a compact body that can slip into your shirt pocket, and its pictures are good too Read more
