Samsung ST95 review

The Samsung ST95 compact camera may be little, but it's big on features. It's also easy to use, has a good touch-based interface and comes at a very fair price. Read more

Fujifilm FinePix Z800EXR review

The Fujifilm FinePix Z800EXR camera is basically a pared-down version of the pricier F300EXR, with the same sensor, a slimmer body, more modest 5x zoom range and impressive 3.5-inch LCD touchscreen. Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-S3 review

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-S3 is by no means perfect, but it's still head and shoulders above most other budget compact cameras. It's also very light, and refreshingly easy to operate. Read more

Nikon Coolpix S4300 review

You name it, Nikon's simplified it. Could the Coolpix S4300 be the perfect beginner's camera? It certainly comes close. Read more

Samsung ST6500 review

Although it struggles to differentiate itself from other Samsung models, such as the ST95, the ST6500 is a worthy touchscreen compact camera. It offers generally good picture quality and plenty of tools to play with too. Read more

Samsung SH100 review

The Samsung SH100 offers the decent performance you'd expect from a camera of its price. The addition of Wi-Fi connectivity makes it more appealing than rival snappers if you often post images online. Read more

Samsung ST100 review

The Samsung ST100's dual screens have their uses but you'll have to pay extra to get them, and, discounting those, it's a fairly standard point-and-shoot camera. It's fun but it should be cheaper. 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
