Canon Digital IXUS 120 IS review

The 12-megapixel Digital IXUS 120 IS is difficult to resist, thanks to its combination of a tiny, attractive body, simple operation, and generally very good photos. Occasionally, its images can suffer from purple fringing, and it can also be sluggish, but this is one of the better ultra-compacts on the market Read more

Pentax X70 review

Pentax's 12-megapixel X70 is a strong first attempt at a superzoom camera. It's not the fastest performer, but its build quality is solid, the 24x optical zoom is flexible and fun, and its photos are good compared to those of rivals. It also offers plenty of shooting options, while being easy to use Read more

Fujifilm FinePix F60fd review

With a big 76mm (3-inch) LCD screen and features such as face detection and scene recognition, the Fujifilm FinePix F60fd is a good little compact. The picture quality is good, turning out crisp shots, but we must say we were bogged down in fiddly, often counter-intuitive controls Read more

Pentax Optio S12 review

A new edition to the S series of ultracompacts, the Pentax Optio S12 is small but solid. Packing a whopping 12 megapixels into its ultracompact body as well as a crisp 64mm (2.5-inch) screen, this camera will give you natural and realistic images for an excellent price Read more

Samsung WB1000 review

The 12-megapixel WB1000 offers more control over your photos than the vast majority of other compact cameras, making it a good option for digital SLR users seeking a pocket snapper. Its photo quality and performance are what you'd expect from a compact, but it's a beautifully made machine Read more

Nikon Coolpix S570 review

The 12-megapixel Coolpix S570 is a thoroughly respectable ultra-compact camera that feels more expensive than it is. For someone seeking a reasonably priced snapper for portrait and landscape shots, where speedy performance is less of an issue, the S570 should work well Read more
