Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5 review

The 10.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-LX5 is a compact and feature-packed camera that would make a good choice as a back-up for a digital SLR. The lack of a flash adjustment is a strange omission in a camera of this type, but it's worth a look if you need plenty of power in your pocket Read more

Nikon Coolpix P3 review

'Wi-Fi' is the word for the 8-megapixel Nikon Coolpix P3 -- this compact point-and-shoot incorporates an internal transmitter for uploading pictures to a nearby computer or printer. But it's the P3's excellent image quality that impresses us most. With optical vibration reduction, the P3 is a great casual shooter Read more

Olympus u [mju:] 810 Digital review

The versatile, water-resistant 8-megapixel Olympus mju 810 Digital adapts to dim environments as readily as it braves damp ones. Thanks to a combination of high sensitivity (up to ISO 3,200), digital image stabilisation and Olympus's Bright Capture pixel-pooling technology, the mju 810 can take and display acceptable pictures in low light Read more

Nikon Coolpix 7600 review

This 7-megapixel, 3x optical-zoom model squarely targets the snapshot set, but it delivers where it really counts: helpful features and very good picture quality Read more

Fujifilm FinePix J12 review

Dispensing with all forms of gimmickry, the J12 is an elegant, straightforward, 8-megapixel compact digital camera that produces sharp and clear images. It's not perfect but, for the price, it's so good that it makes its rivals look stupid Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX33 review

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX33 is all screen, with no wasted space. It doesn't skimp on features, either, including the company's MegaOIS optical image stablisation system plus an 'intelligent auto' mode that does everything short of pressing the shutter for you. Now that's a camera with service Read more

Canon PowerShot A495 review

The 10-megapixel PowerShot A495 is an affordable compact camera that offers good photos for the price. The biggest downside is its fairly slow shooting performance, but at this price you can't complain too much. It's very straightforward to use too Read more

Kodak EasyShare M1093 IS review

The Kodak EasyShare M1093 is unashamedly masculine in design, with sleek lines, matte black finishing and subtle contours -- all of which we love. It offers a great selection of scene modes, shoots 720p high-definition video and produces good pictures by means of its responsive autofocus and fast snapping speeds Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W5 review

Decent image quality, a versatile burst mode and convenient AA battery power make this Sony suitable for photo fans who want a pocketable camera with a useful set of features. Limited manual control and too many features hidden in the menus are among the few problems Read more
