Olympus mju 1050SW review

The Olympus mju 1050SW is especially pretty for being waterproof, shockproof and freezeproof. It's quite astonishing that such an elegant camera should turn out to be so tough, but its small size and slippery finish limit its usefulness in the extreme environments it's so good at surviving Read more

Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP review

We can't help but like the 10-megapixel Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP, even though it's not without its faults. It looks so neat and appealing that its comparatively low price comes as a surprise, and it's waterproof up to 3m, making it a good choice for casual snappers looking for a camera to take on holiday Read more

Casio Exilim EX-S12 review

If the 12-megapixel Exilim EX-S12 were any thinner, it'd be invisible. It's not just a looker though, as it also has more technological tricks up its sleeve than you'll ever have time to try. But those who want great image quality above all else might find they'd like to swap all the gadgetry for a better lens Read more

Nikon Coolpix L19 review

The inexpensive, 8-megapixel Coolpix L19 is an unpretentious and sturdy compact camera that's well suited to the rough and tumble of family use. The resolution is modest and you get very little manual control, but, in a perverse kind of way, it's a very likeable camera Read more

Samsung ST50 review

The 12-megapixel ST50 super-slim camera has a real air of quality about it, thanks to a weighty stainless-steel body and high-quality LCD display. With its 'smart auto' mode, the camera can also take care of all the picture settings for you, if you fancy giving your brain a rest Read more

Fujifilm FinePix Real 3D W1 review

Fujifilm deserves a substantial pat on the back for creating the FinePix Real 3D W1. Not only does it function as a normal compact camera, but it can also use its two lenses to produce strikingly effective 3D images. This snapper's not without its downsides, but it's capable of some impressive results Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 95 IS review

The Digital IXUS 95 may be pretty, and it may be a Canon, but if you've got around £180 to spend and all you ask is a 10-megapixel sensor and a 3x zoom, it'd take you a week to read through the list of candidates. The IXUS 95 stakes its claim with beautiful design, an optical viewfinder and better-than-ever face-detection Read more

Olympus mju Tough-6010 review

Ernest Shackleton would probably have been mightily taken with the shockproof, waterproof and freezeproof mju Tough-6010. Its picture quality isn't going to blow anybody's mind, but it looks smart, offers good value for money, and can withstand a fair degree of punishment Read more

Olympus mju Tough-3000 review

The 12-megapixel mju Tough-3000 compact camera offers a good combination of features, durability, convenience and affordability. As with most rugged cameras, you won't get exhibition-quality prints from the 3000, but adrenaline junkies should give it a perusal Read more

Nikon Coolpix L20 review

The smart-looking, 10-megapixel Coolpix L20 is a budget compact camera that's easy to handle and straightforward to use. All but very beginners will find the omission of ISO adjustment options baffling, but, otherwise, it's a simple, sturdy, practical camera that takes decent pictures Read more
