Samsung EX-1 review

The Samsung's strength is its combination of features, performance and value for money. It's not the best-handling high-end compact, but it does the job. The question is: do cameras like this have a future when they're up against a new generation of big-sensor hybrids? Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FT5 review

The Lumix DMC-FT5 is a truly rugged compact camera that's happy being dropped, drowned and frozen. Read more

Fujifilm FinePix F550EXR review

A list of features as long as your arm and an equally lengthy optical zoom all work in the Fujifilm FinePix F550EXR's favour. But this superzoom has a number of flaws that prevent it from achieving greatness. Read more

Fujifilm FinePix F300EXR review

This camera's great zoom range, metal build and cracking LCD screen are occasionally let down by rather dull, listless images lacking in contrast. The Fujifilm FinePix F300EXR's noisy zoom and overly sensitive mic are also considerable pitfalls. Read more

Canon PowerShot SX150 IS review

The Canon PowerShot SX150 IS is a true budget superzoom with smart features and great quality output that's only let down by the AA battery format. Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS37 review

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS37 isn't quite a superzoom, but it's larger and more expensive than many compacts, offering a useful balance of performance and versatility. It looks pretty smart while it's at it, too. Read more

The Nikon 1 J2 is a great-looking camera with high-speed shooting and top-quality output, but the resolution might be a sticking point. Read more
