Casio Exilim EX-ZS10 review

£90 really is very little to pay for such impressive specs. It has some some shortcomings, but the ZS10 is a great carry-anywhere snapper. Read more

Olympus FE-5050 review

The Olympus FE-5050 is a low-cost, 14-megapixel point-and-shoot with a wild side. The camera's punk-effect filter may be an inspired flourish, but image quality is variable and critical sharpness mostly lacking. Read more

Pentax Optio M900 review

If you only have £100 or less to spend on a friendly beginner camera, the Pentax Optio M900 offers a fair return for a modest investment. But an outlay of just £50 more will get you a better camera in Nikon's similar S5100 -- and better pictures, too. Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FT20 review

Waterproof, drop-proof and freeze-proof, this £160 model from Panasonic is the Rambo of cameras. Read more

Samsung ST90 review

The cheap but not entirely cheerful Samsung ST90 suffers from below-average image quality and an ungainly menu system. There are plenty of superior cameras available for a similar price. Read more

Vivitar iTwist F536 review

Unless you take loads of self-portraits and really need a fold-out screen, there's very little reason to buy the Vivitar iTwist F536. It's a poor compact camera. Read more

Olympus VG-170 review

A 14-megapixel camera for just £80? Despite a few neat features, the Olympus VG-170 has made too many compromises to hit that price. Read more

Vivitar ViviCam F529 review

The Vivitar ViviCam F529's price might be appealing, but there's nothing else attractive about either the compact camera itself or the photos it takes. Avoid it as you would a leper with head lice. Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX10 hands-on

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX10 probably won't set the world on fire, but it offers plenty of interesting features in a compact design. This camera could be a contender if its image quality is up to snuff. Read more

Samsung MV800 hands-on

The Samsung MV800 compact camera is packed with features that will help you shoot great self-portraits, but the folding screen and phone-style software make it more than just a toy for narcissists. Read more
