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

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W120 review

Sony packs a surprising number of features in its Cyber-shot DSC-W120, a 7-megapixel shooter that comes in a stylish range of colours, including pink, blue and the more traditional black and silver. A better-than-usual 4x optical zoom and in-camera slideshow headline the feature list Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 120 IS review

The 12-megapixel Digital IXUS 120 IS is difficult to resist, thanks to its combination of a tiny, attractive body, simple operation, and generally very good photos. Occasionally, its images can suffer from purple fringing, and it can also be sluggish, but this is one of the better ultra-compacts on the market Read more

Nikon Coolpix S620 review

The 12-megapixel Coolpix S620 is compact, responsive and pleasant to use, providing a better overall experience than its big brother, the S630. The smile- and blink-detection modes are slightly confusing, but this speedy camera is great for taking impromptu shots, and an appealing device overall Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP8 review

The 12.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-FP8 doesn't look like anything special, but it successfully tackles a problem that plagues most other ultra-compact cameras: slow performance. It's also easy to use, small and lightweight, and produces good photos. As such, it's well worth a look for people prone to pointing and shooting 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

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS20 review

Panasonic's shrewd partnership with Leica and a commitment to accessibility has led to some excellent compact cameras. Its latest, the Lumix DMC-FS20, is so versatile and the automatic mode so capable, you'll probably be happy to let it do all the work. You'd be hard pressed to find a more competent point-and-shoot Read more
