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

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 S3000 review

The 12-megapixel Coolpix S3000 is a good little compact camera for a budget price. If you want cutting-edge tech, look elsewhere, but, if you want a pocket-friendly snapper that's easy to use, attractive and capable of taking decent photos, it may well fit the bill. Its 4x wide-angle zoom is handy too Read more

Canon Digital IXUS i7 review

At 23mm thick and weighing only 122g, the IXUS i7 fits easily into almost any pocket, and it comes in a variety of pastel shades. It offers a 7-megapixel resolution, allows the use of 4GB and larger SD memory cards and has 2.4x optical zoom. Its grainy image quality and sluggish performance leave much to be desired, though Read more

Canon PowerShot SX200 IS review

The 12-megapixel PowerShot SX200 IS with 12x wideangle zoom is a very versatile do-it-all camera. It's great for learning about photography too, because it has decent manual controls in addition to idiot-proof automatic modes. Its picture quality won't blow your mind, but it's not at all bad Read more

Nikon Coolpix S220 review

The 10-megapixel Coolpix S220 is a good option for those who want a straightforward, inexpensive camera that will take photos of a sufficient quality for posting online. It's also incredibly small and lightweight, and offers very good features for its class Read more

Fujifilm Finepix Z100fd review

The Fujifilm FinePix Z100fd wears its biggest strengths on its sleeve: a decent-sized screen, fun scroll wheel and engaging looks. Under the bonnet, the scene modes and automatic settings are up to the average user's point-and-shoot needs, with a particularly impressive face detection system Read more

Nikon Coolpix S8000 review

The 14.2-megapixel Coolpix S8000 superzoom packs a 10x zoom into a compact body at a reasonable price. Its image quality isn't the best we've ever clapped eyes on, but it is straightforward to use, fast and responsive. It also offers a particularly good LCD display on the back Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T77 review

Stylish though it is, the 10-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-T77 might actually prove too small for some users. It offers speedy performance for its class though, and, considering its size, picture quality is decent. If you don't mind the touch-based interface, the T77 is one of the better ultra-compact cameras around Read more

Casio Exilim EX-S600 review

With 35 scene modes that cover every picture-taking situation, plus a user-definable scene mode, the EX-S600 puts the brains back into no-brainer snapshooting. Unfortunately, these assets are outweighed by its limited 3x zoom range and mediocre photo quality Read more
