Ricoh GR Digital III review

With a fixed-focal-length lens and steep price tag, the 10-megapixel GR Digital III won't appeal to the average user. But photography professionals and enthusiasts who want a 'proper' camera in a compact body will be delighted with its rock-solid build and fantastic photo quality Read more

Ricoh Caplio R7 review

The Ricoh Caplio R7 is a camera that takes charge. Available in orange, silver and black flavours, this camera boasts a mini joystick plus the standard clickpad to navigate settings. Changing the white balance and exposure has never been easier and that certainly shows a bit of design gumption Read more

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

Canon PowerShot G10 review

Still the Godfather of compact cameras, the Canon G10 is a worthy successor to the G9. A wideangle lens, accessible controls and a list of features as long as your arm put dSLR power in your pocket. The 14.7-megapixel snapper is chunky by anyone's standards but it packs in enough power to make it worth it Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS33 review

The 14.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-FS33 has its flaws, but it compensates for them by offering plenty of good features at an affordable price. Among its charms are an 8x zoom, excellent build quality and pictures that are a cut above the competition in this price bracket Read more

Samsung NV24HD review

The Samsung NV24HD makes the best of the NV series' smart touch interface. The intuitive menu system does away with wading through menus and with two mode dials, you have plenty of control. Add in excellent image quality and you've got one enormously clever compact Read more

The Casio Exilim EX-Z200 ticks almost every box on a point-and-shoot wishlist. Its large LCD screen and wide-angle lens plus optical image stabilisation and features galore add to the company's signature build quality and friendly interface, making it one of the best compacts available Read more

Olympus mju 1030SW review

The Olympus mju 1030SW is a very tough and rugged 10-megapixel compact camera. It works to water depths of 10m, can be dropped from 2m and can even withstand a 100kg force. The camera takes great pics and is perfect for use in extreme conditions. Menus are easy to navigate Read more

Olympus mju 5000 review

The 12-megapixel mju 5000 is an extremely stylish and well-made compact camera. With unusual but excellent controls, a 5x zoom and 8 frames per second shooting, it's also a pleasure to use and takes great pictures. We're not entirely sold on the supported memory-card formats though Read more

Fujifilm FinePix HS10 review

The 10.3-megapixel FinePix HS10 is expensive and chunky, but it's also one of the best superzooms on the market. Unlike many rivals, it maintains sharpness throughout its 30x zoom length, it handles well and it's responsive. Despite a few rough edges, its strengths far outweigh its weaknesses Read more
