Nikon Coolpix L100 review

The 10-megapixel Coolpix L100 is a budget superzoom aimed at beginners. While it's got few frills and is easy to use, it also boasts a solid build and good picture quality. We're slightly baffled by the lack of manual ISO control, and the LCD could be better, but this is a decent camera otherwise Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ30 review

Though a dSLR would give you better performance, additional features and better image quality, the FZ30 is a viable alternative for photographers who want maximum flexibility for a (relatively) small cash outlay Read more

Canon PowerShot SX210 IS review

The PowerShot SX210 IS isn't exactly strong on innovation, but it packs an impressive set of specs, including a class-leading 14x zoom and 14.1-megapixel resolution. As with most compact cameras, you won't get top-notch picture quality, but this camera does put plenty of power in your pocket Read more

Fujifilm FinePix S1500 review

The 10-megapixel FinePix S1500 is relatively inexpensive for a superzoom, so it's all the more surprising that its build quality and finish are so good. Its picture quality won't blow anyone's mind, but a solid set of manual controls means it's well-suited to cost-conscious beginner photographers Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50 review

Superzooms split the dSLR and compact camps, but the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50 sweetens the deal with a full 18x zoom lens and a handy fold-out LCD screen. There's a wealth of features in the sturdy body, all of which can be tweaked. Images look great and features kept us entertained Read more

Canon IXUS 1100HS review

The IXUS 1100HS produces great pictures, but doesn't match its cheaper cousin. Read more

Fujifilm FinePix S1000fd review

As enormous great 18x and 20x zoom lenses become more common, we're also seeing smaller superzooms, such as the 10-megapixel Fujifilm FinePix S1000fd. On top of its 12x optical zoom lens, it helps the user with straightforward controls and uses easily available AA batteries and SD memory cards Read more

Samsung Digimax Pro 815 preview hands-on

The Samsung Digimax Pro 815 swaggers into shot boasting 8 megapixels, a humungous 15x optical zoom and an equally vast 89mm (3.5-inch) rear LCD, one of three screens on the camera. However, it doesn't offer optical image stabilisation -- a perplexing omission Read more
