Nikon Coolpix S2500 review

The Nikon Coolpix S2500 costs only £90, so you can't expect perfection. But this compact camera is small, easy to use, and offers pretty impressive performance and features for the price. Read more

Pentax Optio S1 review

The Pentax Optio S1 is small, affordable and doesn't skimp on the specs. Picture quality isn't spectacular but those looking for a simple, stylish compact in the sub-£100 price bracket should definitely give it a shot. Read more

Nikon Coolpix S3100 review

The Nikon Coolpix S3100 is easy to carry, use and look at. But its image quality is pretty average, and you don't have to look hard to find other cameras that offer more features for less money. Read more

Nikon Coolpix S80 review

Its minimalist exterior makes the S80 Nikon's slickest Coolpix compact camera yet, even though its touchscreen can make for fiddly operation at times. Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 review

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 is capable of capturing colourful, detailed images. This compact camera's touchscreen controls are also clearly labelled and easily navigated, but we're not sure it's the best option in its price range. Read more

Pentax Optio RS1500 review

The Pentax Optio RS1500's design won't suit everyone and the swappable skins are a gimmick, but it's fundamentally a very respectable budget camera. Its only real weakness is its poor build quality. Read more
