If you're on a budget, the Canon PowerShot A800 should be among the first compact cameras you consider. It's very straightforward, takes a decent photo and represents extremely good value for money. Read more

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

Canon IXUS 300 HS review

The IXUS 300 HS is pricey for a compact camera, but it's a pocket-sized powerhouse. Its pictures are great, even at high ISOs, and its super-slow-motion movie mode is a real hoot. Its high-speed shooting modes are also decent. Overall, it's a very good camera Read more

Olympus Tough TG-310 review

The ruggedised Olympus Tough TG-310 is certainly a robust camera, but there are plenty of more resilient models out there. Its average performance and some usability issues don't do much to further this camera's cause. Read more

Nikon Coolpix S01 review

The Coolpix S01 is a camera so small it could make Q-branch blush. It's cheap and produces decent pictures, too. Read more

Samsung EX-1 review

The Samsung's strength is its combination of features, performance and value for money. It's not the best-handling high-end compact, but it does the job. The question is: do cameras like this have a future when they're up against a new generation of big-sensor hybrids? Read more
