Nikon Coolpix P6000 review
Nikon's 13.5-megapixel P6000 looks so good on paper you might wonder whether you need a digital SLR at all. Its sensor matches the pixel count of any low-medium range dSLR, its 4x zoom is more than the average kit lens, it shoots raw files, has a full set of exposure modes and there's vibration reduction too Read more

Canon PowerShot A640 review
With lots of manual settings and a reasonably low price tag, Canon's PowerShot A640 looks appealing. Though it lacks the flexibility of higher-end cameras and the stylish portability of more compact shooters, the 10-megapixel A640 is a smart, fully featured camera with some surprising benefits -- like a fold-out LCD Read more

Casio Exilim Pro EX-P700 review
The Casio Exilim Pro EX-P700 follows in the midrange enthusiast footsteps of the company's well received P600, sporting a new black chassis, a seventh megapixel, an extensive feature set, pleasing picture quality and a surprisingly pocketable design Read more

Canon PowerShot A630 review
Canon's PowerShot A630 is an 8-megapixel version of its older sibling, the 10-megapixel A640, with an identical design. It's not a great shooter in low light, but otherwise it performs well for its class, with photographer-friendly manual settings and colourful, crisp images. If you're after a solid all-round point-and-shoot, you won't be disappointed Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 800 IS review
The Canon Digital IXUS 800 IS is a very strong, compact digital camera that produces great pictures. Its price is slightly high compared to that of its little siblings, the IXUS 60 and IXUS 65, but its great image stabilisation and subsequent blur-free photos are worth the extra few quid Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W350 review
The 14.1-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-W350 is a great point-and-shoot camera, with just enough features to justify its price, an attractive design and straightforward operation. Like most cameras in its class, moving subjects aren't its forte, but it's capable of taking some very good photos Read more

Canon PowerShot A550 review
With quick performance and decent photos, the Canon PowerShot A550 is a solid budget camera. It doesn't have many special features, but it's a strong choice if you don't want to spend a lot for your snapshots Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 review
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 is capable of capturing colourful, detailed images. This compact camera's touchscreen controls are also clearly labelled and easily navigated, but we're not sure it's the best option in its price range. Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W130 review
With a quick shutter and a shiny, attractive shell, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W130 makes a very good pocket point-and-shoot camera. It's an improvement upon previous models with its 4x zoom lens with a longer reach and onboard editing helps you tweak and share your shots Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W220 review
In order to keep the price down, Sony's trimmed the 12-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-W220's features, but left enough in so that it's still a worthwhile proposition. Also offering fairly speedy performance and decent photo quality, this is a well-rounded and attractive compact camera Read more
