Fujifilm FinePix J100 review

The Fujifilm FinePix J100 is very simple. We'd even call it the consummate point-and-shoot, mainly because you can't do anything else with it. Despite a few quirks, this camera has a decent 5x zoom -- but one thing is for sure: the prominence of 'baby mode' suggests this isn't a camera for the party scene Read more

Kodak EasyShare Z1275 review

The Kodak EasyShare Z1275 is an attempt to bring 12 megapixels to the masses, and it's certainly affordable. The usual Kodak bells and whistles are present, including 20 scene modes and panorama stitch function, but the star of the show is the 5x optical zoom lens Read more

Olympus FE-200 review

The 6-megapixel Olympus FE-200 boasts the nicest lens in its series, with a wide 28mm-to-140mm zoom. A digital image stabilisation mode helps reduce shaking when zooming in but the wait of 7.3 seconds between shots may frustrate some users Read more

Pentax Optio M900 review

If you only have £100 or less to spend on a friendly beginner camera, the Pentax Optio M900 offers a fair return for a modest investment. But an outlay of just £50 more will get you a better camera in Nikon's similar S5100 -- and better pictures, too. Read more

Samsung PL80 review

The 12.2-megapixel PL80 compact camera offers a good design and specs for the money, including a 5x wide-angle zoom. Its picture quality is fairly mediocre, but it's a simple snapper to operate. Undemanding users who don't want to spend too much should consider it Read more

Olympus VG-170 review

A 14-megapixel camera for just £80? Despite a few neat features, the Olympus VG-170 has made too many compromises to hit that price. Read more

Samsung ST93 review

The Samsung ST93 is a small and good-looking camera that is ideal for snapping away but its quality is not as good as its rivals. Read more

Vivitar ViviCam F529 review

The Vivitar ViviCam F529's price might be appealing, but there's nothing else attractive about either the compact camera itself or the photos it takes. Avoid it as you would a leper with head lice. Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX55 hands-on

We won't know the real worth of the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX55 until we've had a chance to properly examine its image quality. But its list of features is impressive and it feels very slim, so our fingers are crossed that the TX55 will take decent snaps too. Read more

Samsung MV800 hands-on

The Samsung MV800 compact camera is packed with features that will help you shoot great self-portraits, but the folding screen and phone-style software make it more than just a toy for narcissists. Read more
