Kodak EasyShare V610 review

With the EasyShare V610, Kodak takes its innovative dual-lens camera design to its logical conclusion by pairing a typical compact-camera zoom lens with a second 130mm-to-380mm lens for an effective 10x optical zoom range. The V610 also features a large 71mm LCD, impressive for a pocketable compact Read more

Nikon Coolpix S10 review

Nikon's Coolpix S10 is a stylish superzoom camera with an iconic swivel design. It features an excellent 10x optical zoom lens and sports a 6-megapixel CCD sensor with sensor-shift image stabilisation, to help keep that long lens steady. It's an attractive offering and produces good images, but some may find it lacking in advanced controls Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H2 review

Sony's Cyber-shot DSC-H2, is the follow-up model to the H1 and is more in step with the rest of the marchers. Its 12x zoom lens now carries the Carl Zeiss moniker, resolution has been bumped up to 6 megapixels and sensitivity has been stretched all the way out to ISO 1,000 Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX10 review

The Lumix DMC-FX10 steps up to the plate with 6 megapixels, a 3x optical zoom lens and a 64mm LCD -- nothing to set the world on fire, but add in Panasonic's effective optical image stabilisation and a sub-£130 price, and you get a very good deal Read more

Nikon Coolpix L6 review

Like the rest of Nikon's L series the L6 eschews features in favour of simplicity. This 6-megapixel camera with its 38mm-to-116mm 3x optical zoom lens does not let you select an ISO and its performance can be slow, but if you like the idea of fully automated shooting, it could be a good choice Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1 review

Panasonic's 5-megapixel Lumix DMC-TZ1 has a big 10x zoom, an ergonomically pleasing design and some cool features. It suffers somewhat from image-quality and a lack of manual controls that may well frustrate keen photographers, but casual photographers will appreciate its long lens and compact frame Read more

Nikon Coolpix S9 review

The Coolpix S9 is a 6-megapixel digital camera that really is ultracompact -- it's just 20mm thick and weighs only 116g. That it's so much less expensive than other ultracompacts is due to a squeeze on build quality and features -- fewer pixels in the LCD, only up to ISO 400 and no image stabilisation or manual exposure controls Read more

Fujifilm FinePix F650 review

For shutterbugs who want both a camera they can control and that can also fit in a pocket, Fujifilm's 6-megapixel FinePix F650 walks the line well between function and convenience. It comes with a 5x optical zoom lens and a 76mm LCD screen, and while it doesn't include any gimmicky features, it does have full manual-exposure controls Read more

Samsung Digimax S600 review

Samsung calls its S-series cameras point-and-shoots, but these slim snappers offer controls that set them apart from the mindless auto-only cameras. The Digimax S600, however, does let itself down considerably on image quality, and it might well be worth stepping up to a better-performing model, such as the Samsung Digimax L60 Read more
