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

Fujifilm FinePix F70EXR review
Sporting Fujifilm's EXR sensor, the 10-megapixel FinePix F70EXR compact superzoom with 10x wideangle zoom is capable of delivering some truly impressive pictures, particularly in low light. It's sometimes susceptible to colour fringing, but its size, build and handling are all great Read more

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

Nikon Coolpix P5100 review
The Nikon Coolpix P5100 is a highly specced 12.1-megapixel camera, with impressive image quality. It packs SLR-style features into a compact frame and gives you great control over shooting. Image stabilisation is built into the lens and you also have the option of distortion control 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

Olympus mju 9000 review
The 12-megapixel mju 9000 packs a 10x optical zoom into a body no bigger than that of the average compact camera, making it unusually pocket-friendly. It's also attractively finished, responsive and delivers good results, although it has a tendency towards overexposure Read more

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

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

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

Ricoh GX200 review
The GX200's 69mm LCD screen packs in an amazing 460,000 pixels, twice the resolution of most -- and that's just one example of the top-end features this camera has despite its small size. Its focal length is also wider than usual, meaning it'll be good if you're into landscape and travel photography Read more
