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 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

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

Olympus mju-7040 review

The 14-megapixel mju-7040 is an attractive and flexible compact camera, packing a speedy 7x wide-angle zoom into a diminutive body. Its 2GB of internal storage, one-click 720p movie-recording mode and in-built photo-browsing software are useful too 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

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

Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 review

The 12-megapixel Panasonic Lumix G1 is described as the 'world's first full-time live view digital interchangeable lens camera', and is a big step towards entirely digital photography. You will love it for its speed, photo quality and flexibility, but you may have some reservations about its electronic viewfinder Read more

Kodak EasyShare Max Z990 review

Kodak's EasyShare Max Z990 delivers a long 30x zoom for very little money, but some colours weren't rendered as well as we'd have hoped. Read more
