The Panasonic FX37 may just look like a normal digital camera, but its compact body is full of impressive features, most notably the 5x optical wideangle zoom lens and the Intelligent ISO system, which combine to turn out high-quality images. It's one of the smartest cameras on the market Read more

Samsung SH100 review

The Samsung SH100 offers the decent performance you'd expect from a camera of its price. The addition of Wi-Fi connectivity makes it more appealing than rival snappers if you often post images online. Read more

Canon PowerShot G11 review

The pro-orientated, 10-megapixel PowerShot G11 is expensive and heavy, but it's one of the best serious compacts on the market. Its cast-iron body and chunky external dials are excellent, its image quality is good, and its 5x wideangle zoom is sharp right through its focal range and right to the edges of the frame, too Read more

Samsung NV9  review

Samsung NV9 review

The NV9 is a very tempting 10-megapixel super-slim camera. It offers far more than you'd expect for its £120 price, including an attractively finished and robust metal body, a 5x zoom, a built-in MP3 player and surprisingly good picture quality. It's not perfect but, for the price, it's pretty close Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS5 review

If you stick with it, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS5 is a surprisingly reliable and endlessly flexible compact camera. You'll find this point-and-shoot has plenty of options in playback mode, plus loads of features and Panasonic's excellent Mega OIS image stablisation system Read more

Samsung ST100 review

The Samsung ST100's dual screens have their uses but you'll have to pay extra to get them, and, discounting those, it's a fairly standard point-and-shoot camera. It's fun but it should be cheaper. Read more

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T200 is an ultracompact 8-megapixel camera that oozes style and quality. It's built to last, produces bright and powerful pictures and has handy built-in features such as the 'Smile Shutter', which automatically takes photos when it detects people are smiling Read more
