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

HP Photosmart R937 review
The HP Photosmart R937 looks rather odd: the lens sits right in the middle of its matte-black shell. Strangely, its unique design makes it one of the more pleasant compact cameras on the market. Behind its abnormal exterior is an 8-megapixel camera with a touchscreen menu and loads of options Read more

Olympus FE-300 review
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

Olympus FE-240 review
The attractive, compact Olympus FE-240 makes life a lot simpler by automating almost all of its settings. Its images are actually reasonably good, with accurate colours and very little lens distortion, but it is exceedingly slow 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

Canon PowerShot A530 review
Though the A530 is a modest 5-megapixel step down from its 6-megapixel sibling, the A540, it still has almost all of the same handy features and produces very pretty images in well-lit environments. Unfortunately, it lacks the zippy performance and large LCD that help elevate the A540 above the crowd 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

HP Photosmart R847 review
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. You can also change sensitivity and even tweak your photos while they're in the camera, or just keep things automatic. After all, this is a camera designed to be easy to use Read more

HP Photosmart M537 review
The HP Photosmart M537 is neither large nor small, shiny nor sleek, but despite its plain styling, it's extremely easy to use. With comfortable buttons on its back controlling an sensible interface, you can choose from a generous amount of onboard features, making for a sophisticated simplicity Read more
