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

Canon Digital IXUS 870 IS review
The 10-megapixel IXUS 870 IS is the follow-up to the popular 860 IS, and what a worthy successor it is. It's capable of producing truly excellent pictures for a camera of its size and it has excellent components for its price, including a wide-angle lens and optical image stabilisation Read more

Casio Exilim EX-FH100 review
The 10.1-megapixel Exilim EX-FH100 is a compact superzoom with a twist. As well as a 10x zoom range, it can shoot photos at up to 40 frames per second and movies at up to 1,000fps. That makes it a good choice if you're in the habit of shooting action scenes Read more

Ricoh Caplio R7 review
The Ricoh Caplio R7 is a camera that takes charge. Available in orange, silver and black flavours, this camera boasts a mini joystick plus the standard clickpad to navigate settings. Changing the white balance and exposure has never been easier and that certainly shows a bit of design gumption Read more
