Casio Exilim EX-Z700 review

Performance and size make the ultracompact Exilim EX-Z700 great for quick snapshots. The comfortable, well-built camera powers up in just 1.2 seconds and can take a shot every 1.5 seconds thereafter. Colours and fine details are reproduced well, but some distortion was observed on the extreme left of photos during testing Read more

Fujifilm FinePix A600 review

The compact 6-megapixel A600 delivers decent photos for around £100. Some will like this archetypal budget snapshot camera -- a point-and-shoot with a simple feature set -- but others could be put off by the bulky design and limited control Read more

The Olympus FE-300 is one of the lightest, least-expensive 12-megapixel compact cameras. Despite its small size, its controls are easily accessible and comfortable. Plus, it includes Perfect Shot Preview, which helps you take a shot without much trial and error. Sounds perfect Read more

HP Photosmart M437 review

With one of the smallest price tags on the market, the HP Photosmart M437 looks like an appealing, simple little camera. Its 5-megapixel sensor and 51mm LCD won't turn many heads, but its skimpy £80 price will attract anyone looking for a budget snapper Read more

Olympus u [mju:] 1000 review

The sleek but sturdy Olympus mju 1000 offers high-resolution images, a water-resistant metal body and a 64mm screen. This compact has some nice features and picture quality can be good, but noise issues and slow performance could mean poorer photos in low light Read more

With its sliding lens cover, the HP Photosmart R847 reveals a great lens and a sturdy body that can take pictures up to ISO 1,600.

Casio Exilim EX-Z70 review

This ultracompact 7-megapixel digital camera from Casio powers up in just 1.2 seconds and can take a shot every 1.3 seconds. A Quick Shot mode lets you snap off shots even more rapidly by foregoing focusing, but you may suffer some loss of image quality Read more

Olympus FE-180 review

Olympus's 6-megapixel FE-180 is a rare example of a camera with a well-built automatic system -- there are hardly any manual controls, but it still takes a decent image. Basically, the camera runs almost completely on autopilot. It's just the thing for a casual photographer on a budget Read more
