Canon EOS 5D Mark II review

The 21-megapixel EOS 5D Mark II digital SLR will prove a must-have, zippier upgrade for many users of the original 5D. Delivering the fluid shooting experience and high-quality photos you'd expect from a professional camera, the Mark II also offers excellent video-capture capabilities Read more

Canon HG21 review

Our main issue with the HG21, Canon's high-class, high-definition camcorder, is that it may be too good for its own good. Now that should tell you something. The HG21 comes with a whopping 120GB hard drive, a vast array of high-end features and produces video that is absolutely breathtaking. If you think you can make use of it all, this one's a winner Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 review

Part of a new breed of camera that aims to combine the image quality and features of a digital SLR with the convenience of a compact, the 12.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-GF1 is a tantalising proposition. It costs a packet, but its photos are excellent and its build quality is really something special Read more

Samsung NX10 review

The 14.6-megapixel NX10 is an impressive alternative to Micro Four Thirds cameras from Olympus and Panasonic. It works well, takes great pictures with the 18-55mm kit lens, and offers excellent value for money. As a smaller and lighter alternative to a digital SLR, it's well worth a perusal Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX500 review

You can't go wrong with the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX500. This excellent compact features a 25mm wide-angle lens and a 5x optical zoom. Plus, it has myriad features, including the proven Mega OIS system, and you can tweak most of them, making this an excellent shooter 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

Nikon D90 review

The Nikon D90 is the first digital SLR camera with video recording, which is great, especially since it's shot in 1,280x720-pixel motion JPEG at 24fps, giving it a cinematic, high-definition look. You can also shoot video with any lens, which yields interesting effects Read more

Samsung WB600 review

Combining a long, 15x zoom range and consistently good images, the 12-megapixel Samsung WB600 is an excellent compact superzoom. It's also one of the cheapest out there. Although not without its flaws, it's worth seriously considering if you're after a new snapper Read more

Eye-Fi Pro X2 review

The Pro X2 is an 8GB SDHC memory card with Wi-Fi capability. Whack it in a compatible camera and you'll be able to upload photos to your computer via a wireless connection. It works well, the included software is easy to use, and it could save you a great deal of time. It doesn't come cheap though 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
