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

Nikon Coolpix L100 review

The 10-megapixel Coolpix L100 is a budget superzoom aimed at beginners. While it's got few frills and is easy to use, it also boasts a solid build and good picture quality. We're slightly baffled by the lack of manual ISO control, and the LCD could be better, but this is a decent camera otherwise Read more

Kodak EasyShare ZD710 review

The Kodak EasyShare ZD710 is a well-designed superzoom with a relatively small size and price alike. It certainly presents a step up over most compacts in terms of manual control. As a first camera for would-be enthusiasts, the simplicity of operation is a bonus Read more

Olympus SP-560 UZ review

We loved its predecessor and we love the Olympus SP-560 UZ even more. Keeping the comfortable design, this superzoom's whopping lens stands out as its most prominent feature. Plus, it's packed with plenty of useful, advanced options, all available at a low price Read more

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

Nikon Coolpix L5 review

Like a growing number of cameras, the Coolpix L5 combines a short list of features with plenty of automation to provide a relatively thought-free user experience. The simplicity of this compact may appeal to those daunted by a multitude of settings, but some will be disappointed by the sluggish performance Read more

Pentax Optio W10 review

This postman-worthy camera is specially sealed to prevent damage from the elements, completely submersible in water to a depth of 1.5m for up to 30 minutes, and impenetrable to dust particles as fine as talcum powder. Sadly, it suffers from a dim display, mediocre performance and serious image artefacting Read more

Nikon Coolpix P60 review

Do you miss the days when cameras looked like cameras instead of flashy, new-fangled machines? Enter the Nikon Coolpix P60, a compact that makes retro styling cool again. A solid point-and-shoot, it strikes a balance of basic tweakability with general simplicity Read more
