Nikon Coolpix S210 review

The Nikon Coolpix S210 does exactly what it says on the tin. It's small and compact; it won't leave you with an emptied wallet; and it takes decent pictures. Start shooting and you'll find it focuses quickly and your shots come out with well-balanced colours 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

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

Pentax Optio W80 review

The rugged, 12-megapixel Optio W80 is an attractive little beast that can withstand a good deal of physical punishment. It's over-reliant on its menu system, but it's a versatile snapper, offering a 5x wideangle zoom, a high-def movie mode and a sensitivity range that goes all the way up to ISO 6,400 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

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T500 review

Most compact cameras offer video as something of an afterthought, but it's central to the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T500. High-definition 720p video takes advantage of an optically stablilised 5x zoom and a decent microphone, all wrapped up in a slim but substantial metal body that sports a large 89mm touchscreen LCD Read more
