Nikon Coolpix S8200 review
The Nikon Coolpix S8200 is a great superzoom. Its photos are first-class and, although we were slightly disappointed by its video performance, we'd strongly recommend it nevertheless. Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6 review
The 10.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-TZ6, with a super-wideangle 12x zoom, is a really rather special compact camera. Other cameras may be smaller, cheaper or offer more manual control, but excellent picture quality, a superb build and finish, and fantastic versatility mean the TZ6 is difficult to beat Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 review
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 superzoom combines a 12x zoom and 25mm-equivalent wide-angle lens with 720p video recording to create an excellent follow-up to the earlier TZ6 model. This 'hybrid' camera produces superb images, but does it come out on top in the sibling rivalry? Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ8 review
Panasonic has two superzooms: the movie-oriented TZ10 and this, the everyday shooting TZ8, which is much cheaper. The thing is, the TZ8 is very nearly as good as the fantastic TZ10, making very few concessions. But which is better value for money? Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ10 review
The 12.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-TZ10 is probably the world's best superzoom, improving on its excellent predecessors by adding GPS and manual exposure modes. Panasonic's array of 'intelligent' image-processing technologies is tiresome, but this is a seriously impressive photographic tool Read more

Canon PowerShot SX220 HS review
It would be a mistake to dismiss the Canon PowerShot SX220 HS compact superzoom as an incremental update to the SX210 IS. It's powerful, flexible, straightforward and fun to use. Read more

Canon PowerShot S5 IS review
The Canon PowerShot S5 IS is sturdy, fast and easy to use. With a 12x image stablised superzoom, it produces sharp, colourful images. The zoom even works when you switch to movie capture mode, making this camera a well-priced alternative to many dSLRs on the market Read more

Fujifilm FinePix S200EXR review
The 12-megapixel FinePix S200EXR offers the features, controls and handling of a digital SLR at a much lower price, and its EXR sensor technology means it outguns its superzoom rivals. We'd like to see the clever EXR features better integrated with the rest of the camera's controls, though Read more

Fujifilm FinePix F600EXR review
The Fujifilm FinePix F600EXR really is the 'go-anywhere, do-anything' compact camera Fujifilm claims it is. This £240 snapper will last you for many years. Read more
