Panasonic Lumix DMC-FT1 review

Other ruggedised compact cameras might be tougher, but the 12-megapixel Lumix DMC-FT1 is very well specified for its class, with a 4.6x wideangle zoom and hi-def movie mode, making it a great all-rounder. If versatility is more important to you than having the hardest camera available, it'll be worth a gander Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 870 IS review

The 10-megapixel IXUS 870 IS is the follow-up to the popular 860 IS, and what a worthy successor it is. It's capable of producing truly excellent pictures for a camera of its size and it has excellent components for its price, including a wide-angle lens and optical image stabilisation Read more

Samsung ST550 review

Its pictures are fairly ordinary, but the 12.2-megapixel ST550 is a stunningly successful exercise in interface design. With a front-mounted touchscreen that makes taking self-portraits a piece of cake, a rear-mounted touchscreen that delivers haptic feedback, and a motion-sensitive menu system, it's a joy to use Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-S3 review

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-S3 is by no means perfect, but it's still head and shoulders above most other budget compact cameras. It's also very light, and refreshingly easy to operate. Read more

Nikon Coolpix S2500 review

The Nikon Coolpix S2500 costs only £90, so you can't expect perfection. But this compact camera is small, easy to use, and offers pretty impressive performance and features for the price. 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
