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

Casio Exilim EX-Z300 review

The 10-megapixel Casio Exilim EX-Z300 compact doesn't break new ground in terms of optical science, but it is packed with enough features to satisfy even the most demanding techno-zealot. Whether that's enough to outweigh its average picture quality, however, depends on your attitude to gadgetry Read more

Canon PowerShot A530 review

Though the A530 is a modest 5-megapixel step down from its 6-megapixel sibling, the A540, it still has almost all of the same handy features and produces very pretty images in well-lit environments. Unfortunately, it lacks the zippy performance and large LCD that help elevate the A540 above the crowd Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T77 review

Stylish though it is, the 10-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-T77 might actually prove too small for some users. It offers speedy performance for its class though, and, considering its size, picture quality is decent. If you don't mind the touch-based interface, the T77 is one of the better ultra-compact cameras around Read more

Pentax Optio P70 review

The 12-megapixel Optio P70 boasts an exemplary ultra-compact design, has great features and offers relatively good pictures for the target audience -- those who want to step up from taking snaps with their phone. We wish it was speedier though, and its low-light shots aren't great Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1 review

Although its photos are fairly ordinary, the 10.2-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-TX1 is a very impressive fusion of style and technology. Among the clever features up its super-slim sleeve are its full-resolution high-speed shooting, excellent low-light mode and touchscreen interface Read more

Nikon Coolpix S600 review

The Nikon Coolpix S600 is an attractive 10-megapixel compact. Its small dimensions and elegant brushed metal case means it won't be out of place at a party. It's one of the fastest performers in the Coolpix range and produces good images, particularly out of doors Read more
