GoPro Motorsports Hero Wide review

The Motorsports Hero Wide vehicle-mounted digital-camera system offers reasonable video-recording capability and picture quality for a decent price. Remarkably easy to use, this robust system is a great way to record your high-speed high jinks, but consumes batteries at a rapid rate Read more

Fujifilm FinePix F650 review

For shutterbugs who want both a camera they can control and that can also fit in a pocket, Fujifilm's 6-megapixel FinePix F650 walks the line well between function and convenience. It comes with a 5x optical zoom lens and a 76mm LCD screen, and while it doesn't include any gimmicky features, it does have full manual-exposure controls Read more

Casio Exilim EX-G1 review

The 12.1-megapixel Exilim EX-G1 is a solid first effort by Casio at making a rugged camera. Although its feature line-up and photo quality don't set any new standards for tough cameras, it's certainly capable of taking a good beating, and its appearance is distinctive Read more

Olympus FE-3010 review

The 12-megapixel FE-3010 isn't the fastest camera in its class when it comes to taking shots, but it offers good colour and white-balance performance. Considering how cheap it is, it also sports an attractive and impressively compact design, as well as solid build quality Read more

Olympus SP-350 review

The smart-looking Olympus SP-350 is not only one of the most affordable 8-megapixel cameras on the market but also one of the smallest. Its 24 scene modes will appeal to casual photographers, while enthusiasts will appreciate a range of more sophisticated features Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ3 review

The DMC-LZ3 features a 5-megapixel resolution, 6x optical zoom, optical image stabilisation and numerous ways to control image capture. It fares moderately well in bright environments, but poor performance and average photo quality lessen the allure of this attractively priced model 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

Nikon Coolpix L1 review

A 6-megapixel, bare-bones, pocket-size camera that delivers very good photos for snapshooters who don't mind the slightly high price. A compact and attractive camera, it's fairly lightweight and features a zoom rocker and a four-way directional pad that doubles as a control for flash, timer, macro focus and exposure compensation Read more
