Olympus mju 1200 review

The Olympus mju 1200 certainly looks the part. It's a slimline, capable point-and-shoot for those more interested in style than photography. Under its glossy exterior, you'll find some basic features and quirky controls. If you're not bothered about manual options, take a gander Read more

Pentax Optio A40 review

We associate Pentax compacts with cheery, child-like styling, but the top-of-the-range Optio A40 is striving to be taken rather more seriously. Optical image stabilisation, a 12-megapixel resolution, fast performance and excellent image quality all bolster its case -- it's still cute, though Read more

Olympus FE-300 review

The Olympus FE-300 is one of the lightest, least-expensive 12-megapixel compact cameras. Despite its small size, its controls are easily accessible and comfortable. Plus, it includes Perfect Shot Preview, which helps you take a shot without much trial and error. Sounds perfect 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

Kodak EasyShare Z980 review

The 12-megapixel EasyShare Z980 may have a few design quirks, but its wideangle 24x superzoom lens provides a great deal of fun and flexibility, as does its ability to be fully automatic, fully manual and everything in between. It also offers decent performance, vibrant colours and good 720p video Read more

Olympus FE-3010 review

The 12-megapixel FE-3010 isn't the fastest camera in its class when it comes to taking shots, but it offers good colour and white-balance performance. Considering how cheap it is, it also sports an attractive and impressively compact design, as well as solid build quality 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

Fujifilm FinePix Z700EXR review

The FinePix Z700EXR offers good value for money, packing in a 12-megapixel sensor, a 5x optical zoom and a touchscreen interface. While Fujifilm's EXR high-sensitivity and high-dynamic-range modes aren't as impressive as they once were, it's still a decent snapper Read more

Sigma DP2s review

The DP2s is a compact camera with a big sensor, a minimum of controls and a distinct lack of bells and whistles. If you're an experienced photographer who wants a camera that does what you tell it to and takes great pictures, you should check it out Read more

Nikon Coolpix L22 review

The compact, 12-megapixel Coolpix L22 with 3.6x zoom proves that budget cameras really can be good. Its lack of manual ISO control is a strange omission, but it's well made, simple to use and capable of taking some impressive photos, such as you might expect from a camera of twice the price Read more
